In the museum here, ancient relics, an anthropology section and books of Avicenna are on display. Besides which exhibits such as bronze statues related to the 1st millennium BC., gourd bottles (or canteens), coins, beads and articles of silver related to the Sassanid period. The tomb of the great Gnostic 'Qazvini' is also located in this vicinity.
