Golestan Palace, Tehran

This is a beautiful palace and lots of details in it. Its being maintained very well. It’s a must to learn the history behind it and use the information that they provide to you once you buy your entrance ticket. The inside and outside of this palace are both amazing. If you are in Tehran, visit here with Grand Bazaar and perhaps the National jewels museum (check the hours as it’s limited) on the same day. More beautiful from the outside than from the inside. Not worth the cost they're charging you. You can see more beautiful traditional houses in Isfahan or Mirror Mosque in Shiraz if you are interested in Persian design & architecture. Not worth visiting all the halls and paying extra for each one. I'd visit the yard next time only This place is steeped in history. As you walk around the palace grounds, you can't but help feel the presence of people gone. The gardens are wonderful and the tile work is incredible. You should take a camera otherwise you'll end up regretting it. Go early because there's loads to see. The curators are not very interested in providing information so read up or better yet go with a guide. A historical place with absolutely unique architecture. Every Iranian must see this palace which is belongs to their originality. I recommend it to whoever interested in history, art and Iranian culture. Also headphones are provided to guide about all items in Persian and English. They charge 10,000 TOMAN for them.
