Background :
Tehran: Established as
the capital of Persia just over 200
years ago , this huge , modern and
heavily populated city , does not have
the romance nor the ancient sites which
attract visitors to many other parts of
Iran , but it is the place to find the
country's best museums , restaurants and
shopping.
Visits :
Our tour of Tehran begins
with visiting the impressive
Archeological ,Glass & Ceramic Museum ,
continues in the TEHRAN - morning tour
of Carpet , Archaeological &
Ethnological Museums followed by a visit
to the shrine of Imam Khomeini. (BD)
In order to glean an
overview of Iran's rich history and
culture , visits to three of Tehran's
museums are highly worthwhile.
ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM
It is here where we are
introduced to Iran's long and
fascinating history. The museum exhibits
artifacts representing all periods in
Persian antiquity , many discovered in
sights visited during your tour.

help us to understand the ethnic
diversity , which exists within Iranian
