Elahieh

Elahieh (Persian: الهیه, lit.'Paradise'; also spelt Elahiyeh) is an affluent neighborhood in northern Tehran. While it is now a residential area with expensive apartments, it was previously home to large, privately owned gardens. It is home to the Iranian Art Museum Garden.

History

In the 1920s, the entirety of Elahiyeh was composed of just three estates that were previously possessions of a Qajar noble.
