Day 01
Tehran Squares, Bazaars, and Cultural Landmarks
- Get picked up from the hotel and head towards the southern parts of Tehran with your Tehran tour guide. Start your journey along Tehran's classical plaza route, including Baharestan Square, Hasan Abad Square, and then 30 Tir Street. Most of Tehran's famous museums are located on this street, though the street itself is also lined with diverse, colourful food stands that are interesting to visit and perhaps even try.
- Head towards the Zoroastrian Temple to get familiar with one of the most ancient religions in the world.
- Continue to Valiasr Crossway and its underground bazaar, a fascinating place to visit because of its tiny shops offering souvenirs, distillates, food, clothes, and many other things.
- Check out Shahr Theater, located in the southeastern part of the crossway. It is a well-designed building that is especially suitable for photographers and artists.
- Visit Umbrella Street and stop at Godo Café, which has a unique environment and is near the monument of the famous poet Ferdowsi.
- Continue to the Park of Ab-o-Atash. A famous classic restaurant is near this area, so you can have lunch there. The park itself features the Bridge of Nature and the Cellar of King Kong, which is not really a cellar but a museum of astronomy. Since it looks like a big cellar where a giant animal could be kept, locals call it the Cellar of King Kong.
Meals: Half Board.
