Sea level and it is the latest and the most populous city of
the Iran and also ranks among the prominent cities of the
World. Tehran which means "warm slope: , was a village in
suburb of the ancient Iranian Capital of RAyy, after the
fall of Rayy by the Mongols in 1220 AD, it residents moved
to Tehran.
The selection conflicts which was followed by blind
destructiveness, plunder a massacre launched by the Mongols
(1218-1334 AD) brought about the destruction of Rayy in
1220, and paved the way for increase in population of
Tehran.
From Saharivar 1320/ September 1974, and over the course of
subsequent flour decades, the shape of the city heavily
altered, the city witnessed the erection of the modern
public and governmental buildings. On February 1st 1979
Tehran witnessed the largest ever multitude of masses who
gathered, occupying a 30KM distance, to welcome the return
of their Imam Khomeini from exile. During the imposed war,
Tehran, was also encountered with many predicaments.
For many times it was reined and hit by more than 120
long-range missiles. With the ending of war a few era has
started, with the towards restoration, recognition and
development based on sheer energy and constructiveness.

most beautiful cities of the World. Tehran enjoys the
