The museum is a hall composed of four magnificent and valuable archers. In this part of the tomb of Safi al-Din, you can see great decorations with paintings, gildings, colorful Mogharnas, and Islamic designs; however, its reputation is for its high resistance to earthquakes.

The china dishes donated from the Chinese emperor to the Safavid Shah Abbas are kept in this museum. The local artists in Ardabil engraved these dishes.
