Khajeh Nazar Caravanserai is a restored Safavid-era caravanserai located in East Azerbaijan province, Iran, situated five kilometers west of Jolfa above a bend of the Aras River. Built of rubble and mortar, this structure exemplifies the architectural tradition of caravanserais that served as way stations along trade routes. The caravanserai was registered on Iran's National Cultural Monument List in 2002 and was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in September 2023 as part of the collective designation of the 54 Caravanserais of Iran.
