    When I heard that Khajoo lived in this cave, I really impressed but unfortunately I could not see inside the cave.

    It is a beautiful place. You should read his poems and enjoy them. Khajavi Kermani had an influence on Hafez.

    The place is just a few meters from Durvaza Quran (Quran's Gate). We visited this place when we came back from Persepolis. If you want to visit this place, you can take a Taxi and spend an hour there. The cave and generally the site were nice. But during our visit, there was a rehabilitation in the gate and it was somehow messy. Our guide explained the story of the poet who was buried there and my children reacted with the story. Our visit was during the day and the site was quiet, but my taxi driver said that the place normally crowded during the night specially in summer. Anyway, if you have a spear time, just go and relax. May be take your coffee or a soft drink.

    Near the entrance of Shiraz. Definitely a place that you must see! Khwaju Kermani, whose full name is Abu’l-ʿAṭā Kamāl-al-Din Maḥmud b. ʿAli b. Maḥmud Morshedi, was a famous Persian poet and Sufi mystic

    Khwaju Kermani (Persian: خواجوی کرمانی; December 1290 – 1349) was a famous Persian poet and Sufi mystic from Iran. The tomb is located few meters away from Qur'an Gate. Worth to visit!!!
