Massive Book Garden to open in Tehran

The massive Book Garden center has been scheduled to launch in the Iranian capital city of Tehran next month.

Covering a total area of 65,000 square meters of indoor exhibition space, Book Garden will open in the Abasabad Hills in north Tehran on July 3.

The center is considered a huge permanent bookstore, which will remain open throughout the year.

“All sections of the project will be launched at the opening ceremony,” said Majid Hosseini, director-general of the Book Garden.

The huge bookstore will be one of the largest of its kind, providing ample space and amenities to help promote book reading.

People of all status and ages will enjoy the vast collection of books at the center. Special areas will cater to the needs of children and adolescents.

The open grounds surrounding the buildings, covering 45,000 square meters, includes an artificial lake, a restaurant and coffee shop and playgrounds for kids.

The center has five halls, including a main level accommodating 600 people for theater, stage plays and orchestral music performances. Four research halls are available for academics to hold classes for university students.

Book Garden is part of the Abasabad Cultural Complex, which also includes Nature Bridge, Flag Tower, Gonbad Mina (Enamel Dome) Planetarium, Art Garden, Sacred Defense Garden Museum and Flower Garden.
