Mirza Ali Asghar Khan Amin-al-Soltan, the Prime Minister, found a perfect place with pleasant weather in the northern mountains of Tehran and decided to build a mansion for this purpose. After Mozafar-al-Din Shah’s death, this mansion was gradually converted into a sanitarium for TB patients. Several buildings were added to the building to serve TB patients referred to this center from all over the country. After the change of government, these pieces of land along with the mansion inside were abandoned until Dr. Masih Daneshvari with his utmost attempt was allowed to establish a nursing school in it.
