Tous Museum is one of Mashhad's sights, located in the garden of Ferdowsi's Tomb. The museum was designed by Houshang Sihon in 1968. The museum was originally built for the traditional tea house, but in 1982, in order to celebrate Ferdowsi, as well as respect for the historical and cultural values of Tous, this place became a museum. Today, Tous Museum is one of the most visited museums in Mashhad and is very much appreciated by the tourists in Mashhad Tours. The construction of Tous Museum is based on the mythological concepts of Ferdowsi's poetry as well as the architecture of the Achaemenid period. The museum continues with 3 goals: 1.Introducing Tous as an urban civilization in history 2.Introduction of Hakim Abolqasem Ferdowsi as the greatest poet of epic 3.Introduction of Shahnameh Ferdowsi as the most important epic effect.
