The National Jewelry Treasury

A 200-year-old precious stone-encrusted throne, jewels from all over the world, a gem-studded 1869 globe, the world’s largest pink diamond and other mind-boggling pieces make up the unusual collection at this historic museum.

After an intensive security check, I had the chance to enjoy an English-speaking tour guide who explained the jewelry in about 45 minutes. It is a miracle how many remarkable and high-value exhibits can be found and admired, not only the Peacock Throne. Be there on time!

To me Iranian cinema alongside French cinema really showcases the best stories in film. The museum gives a great glimpse of the history of Iranian Cinema. Also you get to see an Arriflex 35mm as well as a cinetic analog editing table from back in the days.
