"Book Bastion" was recently inaugurated in the Martyrs' Garden to serve as a cultural center, taking a step towards promoting the reading culture and introducing works related to the martyrs buried in this place. The CEO of Behesht Zahra Organization emphasized at this ceremony that the improvement of the Martyrs' Garden is not limited to enhancing the physical structure and infrastructure, but special attention has also been given to the software and content of this place.

A Space for Interaction Among Cultural Figures

The CEO of Behesht Zahra Organization stated: "Book Bastion" is not just an ordinary bookstore or library. This place provides opportunities for authors and publishers who work in the field of martyrs and resistance to showcase their works and establish effective communication between writers, publishers, and enthusiasts of the culture of resistance.

Efforts to Create a Cultural Hangout

Hamid Davood Abadi, another famous author, also added at this ceremony: "Today, we did not participate in a book unveiling; rather, we witnessed the birth of an idea in the Martyrs' Garden." He thanked all those involved in this project and stated that "Book Bastion" could become a place for gatherings, discussions, and book introductions.

This library has been established with the aim of specifically introducing books related to the martyrs buried in the Martyrs' Garden of Behesht Zahra (S) with about 200 titles. The books offered at "Book Bastion" are available to enthusiasts with a 20% discount, and visitors have the option to borrow books and return them after reading.

"Book Bastion" will be open on Thursdays and Fridays from 8 AM to 8 PM and on other days of the week from 8 AM to 6 PM. Additionally, visitors can use an automatic vending machine for purchasing books.
