Through the end of 1401 (2022/23), 21.4 million person-visits were made to 828 active museums in Iran. This is while Turkey's 524 active museums in 2022 had 45.8 million person-visits. But what are the reasons for this difference?
In 1399 (2020/21), for every 54 domestic person-visits only 1 foreign person-visit was made to Iranian museums, and it appears that this is the main reason for the difference in the number of visits to Iran's museums and a tourist-receiving country such as Turkey.
Saadabad Palace, with 3.1 million person-visits, has been named Iran's most-visited museum in 1401 (2022/23). Based on the announced statistics, Saadabad Palace ranks among the world's 10 most-visited museums, and this indicates that Iranian museums compete with the world's top museums.
