The Roofed Bazaar of Nishapur is a historical covered marketplace in Nishapur, Razavi Khorasan province, Iran, dating to the Safavid period and reflecting architectural influences from the Safavid, Qajar, and Zand eras. Constructed of mud and brick, the bazaar once formed a substantial commercial district, though today only approximately 750 meters of its original structure remain intact following significant deterioration. Located on Imam Khomeini Street, the bazaar was inscribed on Iran's national heritage list (registration number 6739) and underwent reconstruction efforts beginning in 1998 by the Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts to preserve this important cultural property.
