Shahreza rugs originate from Shahreza, located in the central western region of Iran, in the Province of Isfahan, and enjoys a long and illustrious history of weaving Persian carpets. Originally known as Qomshen, it was renamed Shahreza when a holy figure named Imamzadeh Shahreza was buried there. Shahreza is well known for its exquisite tightly knotted Persian carpets woven using the asymmetrical Persian knot.[citation needed]
