Tehran Day is not just a city event; Rather, it is a reminder of the historic path that transformed Tehran from a settlement north of Ray to Iran's political center and then legally established capital. This day is an opportunity to reread the history, architecture, neighborhoods, historical monuments, prestige, culture and urban identity of Tehran; A city associated with the political and social developments of Iran for more than two centuries.

Today, Tehran is known as the political, administrative and economic capital of Iran, but the history of this city dates back to years before it became the capital. In the past, Tehran was a small settlement in the north of the historical city of Ray, and it gradually developed and became more important due to its geographical location and being on the communication routes.
