Tehran is home to many historical sites and landmarks. This city is one of the oldest cities in Iran which has seen different rulers and dynasties. Now we will go through some of its must-see places.
Azadi Tower was built by the order of Muhammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran to mark the 2500th year of the foundation of the imperial state of Iran. This 45 meters high tower is located in Azadi square and it is like an entrance of the west. The tower is a part of Azadi cultural complex which includes a museum at the basement floor. When the heavy doors of the museum open you will see pieces of gold, paintings and painted potteries that each carry a history within. Each of these pieces in the museum represents a period in Iran’s history.
Between Shahrak-e Gharb and Gisha Street, another tower is standing, looking to the great Tehran from high above with its antenna. Milad Tower with a height of 435 meters is the 24th tallest freestanding structure in the world and the 6th tallest free-standing telecommunication tower. It was officially opened in February 2009 and it is a part of the International Trade and Convention Center of Tehran. It also includes a five-star hotel, a world trade center and an IT park. The lobby of this tower consists of six floors : trade units, food courts, and a cafe. Six elevators are structured in three different sides to transfer the visitors to the head of the tower. The head is simply structured by steel but inside of it, simple is not defined. The roof consists of 12 floors including an art gallery, a revolving restaurant, an open observation deck and a skydome. Mentioning the including of this high tower needs a larger space and a whole article for itself but just for closing this section it is worth mentioning that the tower also features a showroom, a specialized library and an exhibition hall which many concerts and festivals take place in it.
Another amazing place you get to see in this tour is Persian Gulf Lake, also known as Chitgar Lake. It is an artificial lake which gets its water from the Kan Creek. This lake was built in Chitgar Park in order to fulfill the beauties and enjoyments of Chitgar fun complex. The lake is not only used for fun but also it helps to make a pleasant climate as you walk beside it. The lake makes a wonderful view and the amusements prepared for the visitors will make a wonderful memory for everyone. Walking by the great lake, getting on the boats and other beauties make Chitgar an appropriate site for people who visit Tehran for the very first time. Noise, pollution and crowd are not allowed in the park. So just enjoy the atmosphere and forget you are walking in the metropolis.
In 2014, a bridge was made to connect Taleghani park to Abo-Atash park which were separated by a highway. Tabiat Bridge (literally Nature Bridge) is the largest pedestrian overpass with 270 meters. The designer of the bridge, Leila Araghian, wanted this pass to be a place for people to ponder and enjoy walking, not just simply pass. This is why on every part of the bridge you can see benches. The beautifully structured bridge really tempts you to walk on it and enjoy the view of two parks.
Sa’dabad Complex is another amazing historical site of Tehran. It is located on the north part of the city, near Darband. The complex was built and inhabited by the Qajar dynasty in the 19th century. After that Reza Shah-e Pahlavi started living there in the 1920s. Sa’dabad has more than 180 hectares of natural forests, palaces, streets and museums. The most famous palaces built in the complex are Green palace, The White Palace, Princess Shams and Prince Bahman palace. Museums of royal cars and royal clothes are only some examples of many museums that Sa’dabad consists. The complex also includes restaurants and sports complexes. Defining Sa’dabad, in summary, is not possible and even the words cannot explain how magnificent every part of this complex is. You have to see it with your own eyes to believe it. You can see what is left from an important era in Iran’s history, while walking in the stunning garden and visiting the amazing palaces.
Another site dating back to Qajar and Pahlavi dynasty is Niavaran
Complex which consists of several palaces and museums. First, it was only the pavilion of Fath-Ali Shah, then in the same area, Naser-o-din Shah of Qajar dynasty built Saheb Qaranie palace. The main palace, Niavaran palace, was completed by Muhammad Reza Pahlavi and it was first used for guests but then he resided there before moving to Sa’dabad palace. Mirror work and the tiles used in the design of these palaces make everything look more stunning. Simply it is another great place to spend your time.
Visiting these must-see places will change your picture of the modern crowded city of Tehran. It gives you a chance to travel through the history of Iran and also you will get familiar with the historical and modern architecture of Iran.

Hicham Kabbage2023-04-14Excellent service and support Excellent Service ! i am surprised by the reactivity and the will to help and find quickly hotels, flights and solutions for me, even though the holiday season makes things challenging. Chatting through whatsapp made things super smooth and extremely easy. I was interacting with two people from TAP Persia, Rojin and Sohrab. They were just amazing ! They are the ones who reached out to me directly and interacted instantly with me day and night. Great job guys !I used earlier a different company but i was disappointed, i strongly recommend TAP Persia .Keep up the great work !VerifiedFurusan2023-04-10Visa service for Iran Tappersia was very quick in getting the grant notice for e visa for Iran. I got the grant notice on the following day after they submitted my application to the ministry of foreign affairs.They are very responsive thru WhatsApp.Verified
Rebekka M2023-04-10Visa application service With TAP Persia we applied for an Iran Visa. They answered every question we had quickly and very friendly. Within 5 days, we got our Visa approval. We thank again for your service.VerifiedAmine A2023-04-10Visa Je remercie infiniment l'équipe Tap persia pour leur efficacité et rapidité pour l'obtention du visa , ça durée 24 heure pour l'avoir, l'équipe est très réactive même les weekends je recommande vivement et sans hésitation Je viens de passé au consulat d'Iran a paris pour la récupérer et j'ai payé que 30 euro mille merci ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️VerifiedKhushi D2023-04-09Great service It is an amazing experience. Visa process with tap Persia is hassle free and I loved how they’re available to help us 24/7VerifiedPat R2023-04-04Fabulous agency - can't recommend more highly for travellers to Iran I decided to go to Iran at short notice and was only able to do so thanks to the exceptional service provided by TAP Persia.What further complicated was my ignorance of being in the middle of Nowruz and the impact that has on flight availabilities etc.In the first instance, that revolved around speedy obtainment of a visa as well as other aspects such as insurance and mah card via their great-value welcome pack.Thereafter, all of my accommodation, tour guides and transport between destinations was arranged by the beyond-wonderful Mahgol with tremendous efficiency, patience and responsiveness - I could not praise nor thank her enough.Communications are as good as can be.With my lack of Farsi and, more specifically, incomprehension of the alphabet, doing things in this manner was the only way to go.All of the guides - Fatemah, Amin, Fardin, Moji, Peyman and Masoud - were fantastic being passionate, knowledgeable, smarter-than-average bears and very nice people.Rasool, Mehrnoush and Sohrab in the office were also very helpful.I would say though that, to help them (especially) to try to draft your itinerary as much as possible before approaching them as this will save time i.e. places, days in each, hotel price-range then trust them to select the latter for you.VerifiedJan2023-04-02Great Service :) TApersia accompanied us well on the way to our Iran visa. My wife's visa took 2 weeks longer than mine (German EU & I'm Swiss). Our questions were always answered quickly by the nice Mahgol via WhatsApp. We think she did her best for our visa processing. After a while, we were also asked how we were doing! Nice, support and promptness are at the highest level.Verified
Mariam Alwazir2023-03-28Solo Saudi female in <3 IRAN <3 10/10. It's hard for me to be succinct, but I will try. I am a Saudi who has been impressed, curious, and infatuated by Iranian culture(s), Iron Age history, Islamic & other religious histories, architecture, and geography for over 15 years. Yum, and food. I wanted initially to continue my Persian language study at Dehkhoda Institute, however student visas take much longer than other visas to process, and I would likely miss my class during the processing time. I was disheartened and scrambled through my Google bookmarks looking for old travel that I had saved over the years in my Iran folder. ;) TAP Persia was bookmarked numerous times and I quickly applied for a tourist visa. Hey, I can still practice some Persian as a tourist, right? THE PROCESS WAS SO EASY. So smooth! Mahgol deserves all the praise and recognition for bringing relief to my anxious-self (because I had already long-ago booked my airline tickets and took time off work!), and she walked me through all the steps in a timely manner and with competence and grace. Even during the first week of Norouz and Ramadan, I got a friendly update and advice -- got my tourist visa within 5 or 6 days (the Ministry was closed for Ramarouz, but WOW that was still quick). I cried from happiness and surprise... Thank you thank you. I will be in Iran April to mid-May. Originally I just registered for TAP Persia welcome package + visa help, but now I'm pretty curious about signing up for one or 2 of their tours now. I am beyond impressed and excited. This travel company, Mahgol, & this team already made me feel safe and like I'm going home, and I imagine with their business practice, will prosper for many years down the road. Thank you so much. Someone please remind me to update this post with photos once I arrive to Iran <3VerifiedBoba2023-03-27Easy amd efficient visa service I was more than happy with the visa application process done via TAP Persia. All went smoothly. The team is very kind, responsive and professional. The support and promptness are at the highest level.VerifiedDaniel S2023-03-24Iranvisum Ich habe mein Visa für den Iran über TAP Persia beantragt, da der normale Weg zu kompliziert war und sehr viele potentielle Fehler birgt. Ich kann den Service definitiv empfehlen. Alles ist sehr gut und detailliert beschrieben. Der Preis für diesen Service ist es in meinen Augen definitiv Wert. Auch der Kontakt nach der Beantragung über WhatsApp war sehr gut. Sehr freundlich und hilfreich.
