Vakil Bazaar
Virtually no Iranian town exists without its bazaar, in which craftsmen, retailers, and wholesalers, grouped according to their business, work, sell, or buy. Although the tendency today is for enterprising shopkeepers and merchants to move out of the bazaars into the more modern commercial districts, bazaars still play an important role in Iranian life - not only as the main centers of commerce, but also as influential elements in the social, cultural, and political life of the cities.

Vakil Water Cisterns or Abanbare Vakil
To ensure substantial water supply for the residents of Shiraz, Karim Khan Zand ordered the construction of four large water cisterns in the city. All of them were created roughly at the same time during 1760-1765. One of these cisterns stood beside the Mausoleum of Hafez, another in Haft Tanan, still others beside Divan-Khaneh, and finally the largest of them behind the Vakil Bath.
