About Taq Kasra
Tāq Kasrā, also transcribed as Taq-i Kisra, Taq-e Kesra and Ayvān-e Kasrā, meaning Iwan of Khosrow, are names given to the remains of a circa 3rd–6th-century Sasanian-era Persian monument, which is sometimes called the Archway of Ctesiphon. It is located near the modern town of Salman Pak, Iraq.
