Iranian Historical Rugs on Virtual Display

A virtual museum featuring ancient Iranian rugs has been launched to mark National Cultural Heritage Week that began on Friday.
The Research Institute of Cultural Heritage and Tourism website is hosting the virtual exhibit.
"It offers an opportunity for those interested in museum exhibitions to access part of the historical and cultural collections of [conventional] carpet museums and takes the audience from across the globe on a cultural and artistic tour over the Internet," CHTN quoted an institute official, Shokoufeh Mesbahi, as saying on Wednesday.
