Above I said 4 halls but wrote 5 halls, latter row is about in our body and ticket price for entry to this hall is 30000 Toman.
Main hall
The main hall was my interesting hall because there are animals, which lived in Iran, of course, now is live but some animal was extinct such as Mazandaran Leopard.
Reptiles Hall
About Reptiles & fishes. after foreign animals hall. there is this hall include Snakes(Poisonous, non-toxic), Fishes, Lizards.
Stone Hall
Then on the first floor. there is a hall about the stones in Iran’s mountains. in Iranian plants hall. you can see several kinds of Iranian plants which there are in sample dried. also, there is a good smell because this hall is full of flowers.
Taxidermy
Taxidermy is the preserving of an animal’s body via stuffing or mounting for the purpose of display or study. this hall show how we can save the body of the animal when they die.
Butterfly hall
I love butterfly hall. butterfly hall is fantastic because you can see the beautiful butterfly, which there are in all over the world from America, Africa, Europ, and Asia. the interesting thing about butterfly is if insert the needle into the third chine of the body of the butterfly, it gets crippled.
