The Isfahan Music Museum is a private collection housed in restored traditional buildings in the Armenian quarter, gathering hundreds of Iranian musical instruments from across the country's regions. Its galleries display stringed, wind, and percussion instruments alongside explanations of their construction and use in classical and folk music. Live demonstrations by resident musicians let visitors hear the instruments played. Visitors can trace the diversity of Persian musical traditions and enjoy a short performance during the tour.
