A nice place for half a day walk around, specially if you like to see some Russian armor from the cold war era . if you walk 10 minutes there are coffee shops and restaurants available and the largest book store in Tehran with lots of varieties .

One of the best museum I ve ever met in Iran. Very well designed and implemented. Staff are so professional, well educated, polite n kind. Mostly speak fluent english, you can see different aspect of war from tehran bombing till waling in Khorramshahr after occupied by Iraq. Defiantly one of recommended places in Tehran to spend some time there.
There are god amount of parking spot around and so close to other places such as book garden and nature bridge.
This Shrine is so beautiful. There is always so many people, they use Shrine to walk to other side of the road to not use bridge. Also there is drinkable water so people can take. Also there are people who sit on carpet and eat and take time.

A spiritual and relaxing place for those who are looking for a suitable means of communication between themselves and their God, how good it is that this means is a person from the family of the Prophet.
Goharshad Mosque

Most beautiful and decorated mosque inside the Mausoleum of Imam Reza. You can see pilgrims praying here all the time. You don't have to be religious or want to pray to visit this mosque. This is a master piece of architecture and has a great history behind it. Just visit and let your soul fly with its peaceful architecture and environment especially during night time.

The first and the greatest surviving, Persian monument of the fifteenth century is the beautiful mosque of Gawhar Shad (1418) now abutting the shrine of the Imam Reza in Mashhad. Its portal continues the Samarkandstyle of arch within arch, enriched by a succession of bevels and reveals that give it depth and power. The thick, tower-like minarets, merging with the outer corners of the portal screen, extend to the ground and, together with the high foundation revetment of marble, give the ensemble the impression of solidity necessary to support its exuberant color. The entire court facade is faced with enamel brick and mosaicfaience of the finest quality.

Everything is Good
I had an incredible experience at the National Museum of Pakistan in Karachi, one of the country's largest and most comprehensive museums. It offers a vast collection of artifacts, artworks, and historical items, providing a deep insight into Pakistan's rich cultural heritage, including archaeological finds, manuscripts, and coins.

The museum beautifully showcases the history, art, and culture of Pakistan, with a particular focus on the Indus Valley Civilization. Exploring ancient artifacts like pottery and tools, I marveled at the intelligence of our ancestors.

A dedicated section for Pakistani art displayed charming paintings and sculptures, illustrating the evolution of art in our country over time. The bilingual information (English and Urdu) ensures accessibility for all visitors, and the friendly staff readily answered my questions.

The National Museum boasts a convenient parking area for motorcycles and cars, with excellent accessibility for people with different abilities. If you appreciate history, this museum is a must-visit—I highly recommend it, especially to students. Kudos to Pakistan for preserving and presenting its rich cultural heritage!
