Iranian architecture has undergone undesirable changes during recent years and the bazaar’s modern environment has suffered from the same issue. As a result, most of these bazaars have not been able to thrive or keep their dynamicity. Accordingly, by studying the strength points of bazaars which have had their dynamicity even after centuries – such as the domes in Shiraz Vakil Bazaar which are significant and artistic elements with a ventilation applications – it was tried to save and revive today’s architecture by getting inspiration from such elements.
