Tehran Capital of Iran

Visiting Iran without having a trip to Tehran is to miss out. Going out for a Persian delicious dish in one of Darband's beautiful restaurants, shopping in endless rows of stores in grand bazaar, having a nice day skiing in Tochal slopes, in snowy days of winter are only a glimpse of what you would miss! Actually this gigantic, busy beating heart of Iran has got so many beauties to be discovered.

you can find the oldest and most precious heritages of Iran and the world behind the walls of its unique museums. Tehran's museums are among the bests in the world. Darya-ye Nur (sea of light), the world's largest uncut diamond in national jewels museum, the startling exhibit of Salt Man in the national museum, the stunning collection of Achaemenid gold bowls, drinking vessels, armlets and decorative pieces in Reza Abbasi museum are samples of thousands works definitely worth visiting.

Besides being a busy and hectic city, Tehran's recreational sites and resorts at Alborz foothills such as Park_e Jamshidiyeh, Park_e Mellat, Darakeh & Darband and Tochal are wonderful 





National Museum of Iran
It is a 60 year old museum and the largest archaeological and history museum of Iran. The museum consists of two buildings, Ancient Iran museum and museum of Islamic periods.

Grand Bazaar
It includes 10 km of covered stores and has got several entrances. Bazaar is a city within a city, encompassing more than a dozen mosques, several guesthouses, a handful of banks, one church and even a fire station. It is an ideal and cheap place to stock up on almost anything you need.

 

Tochal Telecabin
Is one of the main recreational resorts locating in the north of Tehran. With the altitude of 3500 meters, people can go hiking and climbing, but the simplest route is telecabin. In the winter its ski station hosts many ski lovers. It has got the world’s highest 5 star hotel at the top.

The majestic mountains surrounding Tehran is a gift of nature whose beauty no human construction can ever compete with. Without them Tehran would not be "Tehran".
