A must to see or those who love history!!! Pars Museum is where the remaining of Karim Khan Zand was moved to, and today it is also called the Karim Khan Tomb. There are plenty of interesting historical pieces kept there including Karim Khan Zand’s sword and some ancient ceramics. The museum includes a beautiful garden called Nazar Garden in which an octagonal mansion was built during the time of Karim Khan Zand, i.e., 250 years ago. Highly recommended!!!

During Zand dynasty (1750–1794) Karim Khan built an octagon structure which was called Kolah Farangi. It was used to receive and entertain foreign guests and ambassadors and hold official ceremonies. In 1936 the pavilion became a museum. It was the first museum which was located outside the capital city of Tehran. The brick designs, tiling, pictures and big stone dadoes are among the architectural features of the building.[1]
Pars museum is a display of almost 30 handwritten Qurans, a number of magnificent paintings of famous Persian artists. Among the paintings is the well-known Karim Khan’s Smoking Shisha created by Jafar Naqash.

Pretty nice with some interesting items on display but the museum itself is very small. The garden is good to relax.
The history building of the museum is amazingly beautiful. This architectural heritage have a lot of historical things in it. The circumstance is peaceful. Curators are so helpful.
