Magnificent!MUST see.it has diffrent museums make sure you have time!Great Qajar historical architecture!But for this"precious piece of history"i expect much more care and appreciation from natives!
Yasaman MahdianMarch 29, 2017
I loved it. It's enormous and beautiful. The mirror chamber, the gallery and the wind mansion (not sure about the name) are must see. You need at least 3-4 hours to see the place perfectly.

In the middle of the Grand Bazar chaos Golestan is a blessing! It has its own character and although it’s not fancy like other places around the world, it’s a truly Persian.

Golestan Palace is one of the most beautiful castles in Iran, which is about 440 years old and has one of the tiniest tile works that you should definitely see.

It was awesome! I didn't see anything like Talaar e Ayene before! It's fantastic! It's forbidden to take a picture and I didn't like it.

The atmosphere of the palace is good but museums which are in the palace are not interesting as much as make you amused for hours.
