Iran Travel Blog: Exploring the Golestan Palace in Tehran
Welcome to another installment of the Iran Travel Vlog! Today we are visiting the majestic Golestan Palace in the heart of Tehran. These architectural marvels date back to the 16th century, under the reign of Shah Abbas Safavid, and reflect a beautiful blend of Iranian and Western artistic influence. Walking around this UNESCO World Heritage Site, we will learn about the rich history and cultural heritage that Golestan Palace represents. From the elaborate tiling and multicolored glass of the Marble Throne Hall to the breathtaking mirror mosaics of the Hall of Mirrors, each element of the palace complex provides a unique view of Iran's royal past.👑👸🏻
Unique charms and weird facts about widespread corruption during the Qajar period👑
Our tour to Golestan Palace is incomplete without seeing the Shams-ul-Amara Palace, one of the tallest monuments in the complex and the royal family's former abode. This enormous collection also includes valuable art and artifacts that help appreciate Iran's rich cultural heritage. An interesting and slightly bizarre anecdote about Marmar Palace involves Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, a corrupt and lustful Iranian king who created a slide where women took turns sliding into his arms, allowing him to choose whatever woman he desired. This erotic, rich, and whimsical tradition exemplifies the identity of the royal court during that period.🎉👑🤴🏻🫅🏻
