Tabatabai's house occupies about 5,000 square meters

Consists of three classic features of traditional Persian architecture: the outer section is the public area where receptions were held, the inner section is the private women's area and a special area for staff; forty rooms; four courtyards - the main one with pools and fountains in the center of the house, two courtyards for the women's area in the remote part of the house and one for the servants; three badgir (wind catchers), two Kanats (channels for water flow).
In addition to the exquisite interior, decorated with paintings, mirror mosaics, stucco, oriental ornaments and vaulted ceilings, the house is very well designed. Thanks to the correct distribution of sunlight and badgirs (wind catchers), the room remains cool even on very hot days and warm in the winter months.
The height of the house is located 6 meters below the level of the surrounding surface to protect residents from sandstorms and the harsh desert climate.
