Afif-Abad Garden
باغ عفیفآباد
A Qajar palace and royal garden with a weapons museum inside, where the long pool in front reflects the building beautifully.
Afif-Abad Garden was originally a royal garden from the Safavid period. The surviving palace was built in 1863, blending Persian and European styles, and is reflected in the long pool in front. The ground floor is a military museum displaying weapons from ancient swords and helmets to modern firearms, and the upper floors show Qajar-era furnishings. The garden has large lawns and cypress trees, and few visitors come. It lies in the west of the city, about 5 km from the centre.
