A charming historical house with beautifully detailed ceilings, stained glass windows, and a peaceful courtyard garden. The architecture reflects early 20th-century Shiraz elegance, and the wax figures of historic characters add an interesting, if slightly unusual, touch.

Definitely worth visiting along with

Zinat ol Molouk House is an old, beautiful house in Shiraz, Iran, from the Qajar era.

A must to see!!! Historical building with beautiful garden and outstanding architecture; mirror arts and wonderful wall paintings. It was owned by Ghavam family who governed many years in Fars state. It's linked by a tunnel to Qavam House and was used as the house for family members. There is also a wax museum of Fars's celebrities in its basement. Highly recommended!!!
