Tea Drinkers' Palace Chalus

Tea Drinkers' Palace Chalus

Although today this palace serves as a museum and is open to the public; during the reign of Reza Shah Pahlavi it was used for having tea and resting during the journey. Three points distinguish this building in the north of the country and attract people like you and me; first, it is extremely old and yet unlike other ancient buildings in the country, it has remained standing; second, it was built according to Western architectural principles; and finally, despite the spirit of luxury in the architecture of that era, the Tea Drinkers' Palace is extremely simple and far from extravagance.
