TEHRAN
The City of Wonderful Museums and Royal Palaces
The modern capital city of the Islamic government and its politicians, Tehran, was originally a small village located in the shadow of the old Rey (once known as Raghā) which was once the capital city of the Seljuq empire in the 11th century but later declined with factional strife between different neighborhoods and the Mongol invasion of 1220. Not much is known of the origin and early history of Tehran. The history of the city may date back to the ninth century AD. However, Tehran was an insignificant village for the first few centuries of its existence. However, its development is impeded by its accessibility to the larger and thriving Rey (now located roughly 10 km south of Tehran.
In 1786, Tehran became the seat of Āghā Moḥammad Khan, the first shah of the Qājār dynasty, who chose the city for its proximity to his traditional tribal territories and for enjoying special importance from the geographical, political, and economic points of view.
The 200th anniversary of Tehran's designation as the capital city was celebrated in 1991. With a variation in elevation of almost 700 meters and an officially announced population of around 8.7 million in the city and 15 million in the larger metropolitan area of Greater Tehran, the present-day megacity is home to nearly 20 percent of the entire population of the country and has expanded chaotically and too fast. Nevertheless, Tehran is located on the northern border of the great central Iranian plateau and at the foot of the mountain range of Alborz.
Despite being a town of the early twentieth century, the current megacity of Tehran is becoming a must-stop destination and an established iconic highlight on the travel itineraries for travelers and tourists from abroad because of the traces of antiquity rooted mainly in the Qajar era. It is worth spending a couple of days in Tehran, if only to discover some priceless treasures on display in its museums and palace complexes. In addition to being Iran's political, economic, and intellectual center, Tehran is also a provincial capital. The province of Tehran extends from the southern slopes of the Alborz Mountains into the Dasht-e Kevir desert. It includes several mountain resorts popular with the Tehran is, eager to escape downtown Tehran's heat and pollution.
