And what factors are important factors in understanding and reading of Iranian mosques?Finally it seems that architectural monuments reading are seen from different angles. The most important architectural approaches are Structuralism approaches, formalism, deconstruction and phenomenology, hermeneutics. However, the reading categories, brings sciences such as linguistics, semiotics, and many other sciences in architecture.
