Golestan and Other Palaces  The Qajars' royal residence,

Golestan Palaces the oldest Tehran's Royal Palace
The Qajars' royal residence or Golestan Palaces are the oldest Tehran's Royal Palace. The oldest substantial building in Tehran and one of the royal groups' buildings enclosed in mud walls of Tehran's Arg, started by Qajar founder and completed by Fath Ali Shah Qajar. However, its construction is attributed to the Safavid Shah Abbas I. Naser ad-Din Shah influenced by what he had seen during his first European tour in 1873, added a Museum in the form of a large, first-floor hall decorated with mirror work, where some of the priceless Crown Jewels were put on show side by side with many other things of much less value, mainly acquired by the King during his European tour.

Bazaar  Tehran is the greatest of the Iranian markets

Bazaar
Tehran has one of the greatest Iranian markets. Squat and once black in the heart of the city, like a covered railway station, stands the bazaars in the southern part of Tehran - oriental bazaars still not quite emasculated yet, for all the rubber sandals from Hong Kong and plastic bags stamped with the initials of totally imaginary airlines. These bazaars deserve a half-day stroll.
