This place is a monument with two minarets which is built on the grave of "Amo Abdullah" a pious and righteous man in the eighth century. Monar Jonban’s porch is one of the examples of the Mughalian style and tile works can be seen in it. Minarets were added later and in a time which is unclear and probably the last of the Safavid era and by moving one of them, not only the other minaret moves, but also the whole building vibrates.
Monar Jonban’s long reputation is because of this fact that if one of the minarets vibrates in a side of the porch, this movement is transmitted to the other minarets. The way of moving and transmission – although, for a long time surprised many people and visitors – is not very surprising and unusual from the view of experts and those who are aware of the issues such as architecture. They believe that there is movement in all buildings which are in such form and has minarets and here’s movement is more significant because of the narrowness and lightweight of the minarets. Otherwise, tourists and travelers have mentioned elsewhere in the world which have movements.

Monar Jonban in fact, is the grave of "Amo Abdullah" a pious and righteous man who died in AH 716. Later, two minarets were added to the building. Thus, undoubtedly construction of the porch and minaret started and was performed after the year 716 AH. Monar Jonban is on the way of Isfahan to Najaf Abad in a village named Kardalan. Each of the two minarets of the building is 17 meters long and the building’s height is 10 meters.
Blue and turquoise tiles have adorned this place and a marble stone block is located on the grave of the pious and devout clergyman that Holy Quran, Surah Yasin is beautifully written on it. Other inscriptions are on the tomb. There is an inscription on the top of the main stone that mentioned Amo Abdullah as a devout and pious man and also cited date.
