Tehran Museums and Galleries

Tehran's cultural landscape spans millennia, from the prehistoric artifacts of the National Museum of Iran to the opulent Qajar and Pahlavi era residences like Niavaran and Masoudieh Palaces. Visitors can explore specialized collections including the Treasury of National Jewels, the intricate weaves of the Carpet Museum, and the evolution of Persian art at the Reza Abbasi Museum. The city also repurposes historical sites, such as the Qasr Prison and the Negarestan Garden, into galleries that showcase Iran's cinematic, artistic, and political history.
