Tehran (in Persian: تهران) is the capital ofIran. A metropolis of more than 15 million inhabitants located at the foot of the Elbrus mountain range.
Understand
Tehran is a cosmopolitan city, with great museums, parks, restaurants, warm and friendly people. It deserves at least a few days of your Iranian itinerary.
The city can be divided into two distinct parts: the north and the south. The northern districts of Tehran are more prosperous, modern, cosmopolitan and expensive, while the southern regions are less attractive, but less expensive.
During the Zand dynasty, it was a small town that was strategically significant. The first of the Qajar kings, Agha Mohammed Khan, appointed Tehran as the country's capital in 1778. The city grew significantly under the reign of a later Qajar monarch, Fath-Ali Shah. The main function of the castle built by Agha Mohammed Khan was to contain new majestic buildings.
Tehran has also earned itself an unenviable reputation as a smog filled, sprawl of congested and featureless traffic of crammed concrete with 14 million residents. But you can also find an endless number of friendly and cozy places in and around the city - if you know where to look. Tehran is also a city of parks and has over 800 of them, all well maintained. The city is nearly a mile from sea level and therefore is cooler than other cities in the Middle East. Summer temperatures are around 32 ° C or around 90-95 ° F. The air tends to be very dry.
A combination of factors that make Tehran a great place to visit: The dry climate which is constantly cool (at least in the evenings), the proximity to the mountains, the parks and gardens where flowers bloom throughout the day. year, the alleys of trees in the avenues and streets even smaller, and even the water that descends from the upper town along the wide and deep gutters that look like little rivers in spring. The Alborz Range north of Tehran, which is home to the highest peak in Iran, offers fantastic conditions for winter skiing enthusiasts. In winter, the mountain hotels and ski clubs in Shemshak, and Dizine are full several days a week. Some specialist skiers consider the value of the snow in northern Tehran to be one of the most excellent in the world.

Mehrabad is also the domestic airport of Tehran and accommodates both flights from European, Arab and Asian countries in its international terminal as domestic flights from major cities of Iran in the other terminal. , which was inaugurated in 2005, is called Imam Khomeini International Airport. It is located approximately 60 km south of Tehran on the road to Qom.
By bus
Virtually every city or town in Iran has bus lines to Tehran, as evidenced by the hundreds of buses leaving and arriving in the capital every day. Most buses arrive or depart from one of the four main terminals:
- the West terminal (Terminal-e-gharb) is the largest, most frequented and best equipped station in Tehran. Most international buses, as well as those going to the Caspian Sea region, to areas west of Tehran depart and arrive here. The terminal is a ten minute walk from Azadi Square (to the northwest) and a short walk from Sadaghieh metro station (to the west).
- the East Terminal (Terminal-e-shargh), located at 7 km north-east of Imam Hossein Square, groups together buses to / from Khorasan province, as well as a few lines to the north.

Circulate
Walking through traffic-congested Tehran is a real test of patience. Taxis are the best way, but they are more expensive than in the rest of the country. A large network of local buses will take you wherever you need to go, as long as you can find your way among the bus lines written in Persian. However, the real star of public transport in Tehran is the metro.
By bus
Tehran has a developed but confused bus network. Tickets (200 IR) can be purchased at the ticket offices located next to the bus stops. Since all information about the bus lines is in Persian, the best way to get on the bus is to look quite lost at the bus stop: a local will surely come and help you.
By Metro
New Metro[1] from Tehran has 3 lines that will get you quickly from one end of the city to the other without having to endure the noise, pollution and chaos of Tehran traffic.
There are 3 lines (oddly named 1, 2 and 5) but the 2 most useful are the 1 (north-south) and the 2 (east-west) with a connection at the central station Imam Khomeini. All stations have dual displays in English, but announcements are in Farsi only. There are trains every 10 min (25 min days not worked) of approximately sat. up to 22 h every day.
The tickets (650 IR) are valid for one trip (including connections) and can be purchased at the counters you will find in all stations. There are two cars reserved for women in each train, but women can still travel with a man in the rest of the cars.
By taxi
As in the rest of the country, private and shared taxis abound in Tehran; however, you may find it more difficult to stop a shared taxi in the chaos of traffic, and private taxis are more expensive than in most cities. View the details of the transport in Iran for how to catch a taxi. The best thing is to go from one place to another by taking different taxis, since the collective taxi drivers do not want to pick you up if your destination deviates from their usual route.
Snapp[2] is Uber Iranian available on Google Play Store [3] and Apple App Store [4] in English and French but a local SIM card is required for activation. Drivers cannot speak English well, but the support line can help you with English.
The motorcycle taxis are a specialty of Tehran and offer a good way to get around quickly through the congested streets of Tehran. You will see lots of drivers waiting by the side of the road saying "motor" to passers-by. Keep in mind that the drivers of motorcycle taxis are even more suicidal than the average Tehran driver. Agree on the price before the trip and expect to pay less than a shared taxi.
