Sa'adabad Complex Tour

Entering the complex from Zaferaniyeh entrance, we will first visit the White House or the Nations Museum. The palace was built under the order of Reza Shah of Pahlavi Dynasty between 1931 and 1936. It is the largest palace of the whole complex and the last shah of Iran used to live in it during the summer. In this museum, you can see paintings by Master Hossein Behzad, precious carpets, a desk of Marie Antoinette (the former queen of France) etc.

A few steps away is located the museum of Master Mahmood Farshchian. This palace was once used by the fourth wife of Reza Shah as a dwelling, but now it’s home to almost 70 marvelous paintings painted by Mr. Farshchian.

Then, we will walk towards the north to visit the Green Palace where Reza Shah used to live during the summer. The objects of the palace are displayed as they were placed at the time of Reza Shah. There, you can see hand-woven carpets, inlaid furniture, porcelain dishes etc.
