Metropolis Tehran is an “experience” not to forget. A modern metropolis where more than 10 million people live and work. The economic heart of the city is the bazaar in the south. The richer Tehrani live in the north where the air is just a bit fresher. North and South are connected by the 18 km long Valiasr street. Perhaps a million cars pass here every day.Tehran is too big and there is too much to do in a few days. So choose from a museum, a park, the bazaar, a palace, a tea house, an art gallery, a kebab shop and be surprised by spontaneous encounters with the surprisingly helpful Tehrani.
