National Museum of Iran Breaks Visitor Record

The National Museum of Iran has been visited by over 270,000 people since the beginning of the current Iranian year (March 21), registering a remarkable record in the museum's history.
According to the stats, the figure exceeds the total number of people visiting the museum during the whole last year (started March 21, 2017). Jebre'il Nokandeh, head of NMI, attributed the unprecedented hike in the number of visitors to the ongoing 'Louvre in Tehran' event, launched in early February at the museum, so far receiving close to 180,000 visitors alone.
