Following the successful series of exhibitions focussing on great rulers, including The First Emperor: China's Terracotta Army and Hadrian: Empire and Conflict, The British Museum astonishes us again with an amazing exhibition exploring seventeenth-century Iran through the reign and legacy of one of its most influential rulers. “Shah 'Abbas: The Remaking of Iran” demonstrates Shah 'Abbas's social, religious and artistic influence on Iran through the gifts he endowed to major shrines in Mashhad, Ardabil and Qum, and his magnificent new capital at Isfahan.

Enjoy this magnificent exhibition with a special “Shah 'Abbas” package at The Montague on the Gardens which includes:

• Luxury accommodation
• Daily English Breakfast
• Two Entry tickets to the Exhibition including the catalogue

Guests staying two nights or more receive a complimentary two-course lunch in the hotel's Blue Door Bistro.
