Qazvin has had lots of name till now; like Bagh-e-Shar (literally mean city's garden), Naser al-Din Shah chose this name because of numerous gardens around the city. Minoodar literally mean gate of paradise and it has given from one of Muhammad's (an Arab religious, social, and political leader and the founder of Islam)hadith (literally means "talk" or "discourse" and in Islam refers to what Muslims believe to be a record of the words, actions, and the silent approval of the Islamic prophet Muhammad). There is an inscription at the top of this element which contains a verse of Qur'an (the Muslim sacred scripture) in Nastaʿlīq (one of the main calligraphic hands used in writing the Persian alphabet and traditionally the predominant style in Persian calligraphy).

Also because of the international conference on the Silk Road at 1358 which was held in Qazvin, a camel convey designed and placed at  the central part of this square as a symbol for Qazvin is on the silk road which is still there and can be a unique subject to photography.
