The group then visited the carpet at the central museums of Imam Reza's (AS) holy shrine.

Being presented with an introductive video clip on Imam Reza's (AS) shrine, the guests were also given the chance to have some debates with the office's religious expert on different areas such as misunderstandings on Islam and its relations with other divine religions.
