We had a great time going around, for about $10 you can go in 4 museum. We only pick the ones we can take pictures and didn't bother with the rest. We are not really into museums so we spent most of our time (80%) outside and take photo of tourist and locals. Imagine a historical place with locals wearing... More

There are some beautiful rooms and artwork to be seen. The Gardens and fountains are very welcoming. Nice way to spend a few hours. Go early, as it can be busy if its a national holiday.

See the Ghajar dynasty first hand. The mirror tiles and tinted glass work is like no other. Beautiful gardens. Take lunch, and picnic in the garden. They don't have English speaking guides, so try to read up on the history before you visit. I would give it an entire day.

This place is a must visit if you are traveling to Tehran. To begin with, if you are not native to Iran, it is advised that you travel with a tour. Navigating your way in Tehran can be very difficult. Even though people are absolutely nice and friendly towards foreigners, English is not widely spoken and tourist amenities are not... More

Golestan Palace is good for a visit. The architecture is interesting. You find this place very quiet though the streets around are busy. It has access to subway station and close to other old monuments. You can spend a half-day in the area or even more if you wish to see more monuments.
