Mosque in Tehran


Iran National Museum

Iran is a country that cannot go from Japan so much excluding the sightseeing tourist.  However, I want to go to this country where a lot of frame drums are used. The photo is a mosque in Teheran city. The decoration of a beautiful blue tiles are given to the mosque.  Iran National Museum is a museum where a long history of Persia can be seen. 
When I saw the stone monument written by "Fid type character", I recalled the history class of my school days.



 


Drum Factory

The drum was not exhibited in the museum. However, there was a statue like a Greek civilization. It might be a frame drum that the goddess has in the hand. 
I went to professional musician orders' percussion instrument shops as follows. Craftmans were producing tombak in the factory. They invited me very kindly. 



There were a lot of tombaks and dafs in the shelf. 
It might be a spectacle that cannot be never seen in Japan.
This is a machine that grinds the surface of tombak.
