Ferdows Garden & Cinema Museum of Iran
باغ فردوس
A Qajar-era garden estate that now houses the Cinema Museum of Iran, displaying props and posters from directors such as Abbas Kiarostami.
Built in the late Qajar period, Ferdows Garden is a stepped Persian garden whose central mansion now houses the Cinema Museum of Iran. Its exhibits trace a century of Iranian film history through cameras, posters, a replica Oscar statuette, and materials on directors including Abbas Kiarostami and Asghar Farhadi. The garden has a café and a small cinema and is very peaceful. It lies along Valiasr Avenue, south of Tajrish, and can be walked together with Tajrish.
