Enjoyable moments in Tehran
The Masoudieh mansion (Emarat-e Masoudieh) is one of the most beautiful palaces or historical houses from Qajar dynasty in old Tehran, comprised of a palace and surrounding houses.
The mansion was fusilladed after an unsuccessful assassination of the Mohammadali Shah. The Masoudieh mansion was one of the main gathering centers during the Persian Constitutional Revolution.
Beside its political importance, the mansion has served the country culturally, since first steps of forming the National Library of Iran and also National Museum of Iran were taken there.
This palace narrates the modern history of Iran to those who pay a visit during an Iran trip. Many ancient inscriptions and documents are kept at the site.
But perhaps one of the most impressive parts of this mansion is its beautiful cozy café where you can spend few hours in one of the most historical and cultural monuments of Tehran while experiencing the Qajar-era environment and enjoy the taste of the Iranian traditional foods and drinks.
In this episode of IRAN program we will take you to this fabulous mansion.
