If you are keen to learn about Persian art and history, Golestan Palace is to first place to visit in Tehran. I guess after embassies, it is the only place you can find so many foreign visitors. There are about 10 magnificent halls to explore; therefore you need more than 2 hours for a convenient visit. Scanning a barcode in the museum, you can also receive online narration.

Golestan palace, an old place that is imbued by history. An older palace, but worth a short visit if you are in teheran

It’s a beautiful palace complex in downtown Tehran . The architecture is really interesting. The tile work , brick work , Morris’s and wood work in these places are really mesmerizing. Take your time and look at every detail , the doors , the steps , the hidden olcaves in the corners .. windows and the way they open .. so many beautiful architecture and designs to see .

I ve been there several time with my European visitor,what the said was: it was amazing and wonderful.
Miror works are so beautiful and all decorated room look amazing.
Ticket price was 3.5 euro for Each part so if you have to choose main part, including mirror hall and Shamsoelemarh are the best part

Definitely top five activities in Tehran. A green garden embracing a historical complex. A Great collection of Persian style artworks, paintings, marble carvings, tile and plaster works, mirror works, woodcarvings, and lattice windows, all in one place. A good advice for escaping from the hussle of of Tehran Bazaar which is nearby. The guards at the entrance and some staff were a bit down and not welcoming but it was pretty understandable considering the situation in Iran. Just put on a big smile and it will brighten up their faces too. Reception hall and Hall of Mirrors were my favorites from the complex.

A Qajar Palace that was the seat of the monarchy for around a century, Golestan Palace has some beautiful rooms, artefacts, and buildings. It is particularly noted for the mirror mosaics that coat some of the rooms.

Hi,
It is IRR150,000 to enter the courtyard and another IRR150,000 to enter the main hall also called mirror hall. There are a number of additional charges for entering a museum and some other attractions. Altogether almost IRR 1.000.000.
Hope this is helpful.
Good Luck,
Robert

Olá Eduardo !
Não sei os horários (achei um dica no site do lonely planet = 9am-3.30pm Fri, Sat & Mon-Wed) (aqui não aceita copiar o link) . Nossa visita foi pela manhã, +/- 10:30hs, mas quando ainda estávamos no jardim, o palácio principal foi fechado para receber uma delegação de japoneses, que entraram para ver o palácio principal. Esperamos 1h mais ou menos, e, assim, conseguimos ver os demais prédios ! Vale a visita.
