Tehran, sometimes spelled Teheran, is the capital of Iran and the capital of Tehran Province. With a population of approximately 8.4 million in the city proper and 15 million in the greater Tehran area, Tehran is the most populous city in Iran and the West Asia region.
The long-standing culture of the Persian Empire has left behind countless priceless legacies and countless other surprises about the country and its people. Wherever I go, I am attracted by the warmth and hospitality of the Iranian people. It is a land of beautiful people in appearance, soul, friendliness and unconditional help.
Tehran is a large city with a wide range of climates, with some areas experiencing lower temperatures than others. The sun shines all day long, and the sun sets only at 9pm, so there is plenty of time for outdoor activities. Parks and gardens are lined with flowers that bloom all year round, and the mountains are covered with snow even in the summer.
Solemn mosques are everywhere, with elaborate domes and minarets from the exterior to the interior details of Islamic architecture.
Golestan Palace, an impressive work of exquisite detail down to the smallest brick. Each small brick is a painting, perhaps an allegory, decorated with patterns reflecting culture and religion.
The Bazaars located on maze-like streets or as solid as fortresses are considered the breath of Persia and are always bustling with countless types of goods, the most attractive of which are still handicrafts and precious stones.
In the markets, only men stand selling goods and doing heavy work.
Somewhere under the trees, couples sat talking, not hesitating to show their affection when I asked permission to take pictures.
The girls have sparkling eyes and smiles and are as beautiful as beauty queens.
The elderly are also very hospitable and warm.
Just passing by on the street but everyone will greet you with a friendly smile.
