| 释义 |
In traditional Persian architecture, a howz ({{lang-fa|حوض}}) is a centrally positioned symmetrical axis pool. If in a traditional house or private courtyard, it is used for bathing, aesthetics or both.[1] If in a sahn of a mosque, it is used for performing ablutions. A howz is usually around {{convert|30|cm|in}} deep. It may be used as a "theatre" for people to sit on all sides of the pool while others entertain.[2] Howz is a feature of the Persian gardens.
