Laleh Park, Urban park near Tehran University, Iran

The 35-hectare Laleh Park features tall trees including silver cypress, oak, maple, and acacia, creating natural shade throughout its landscaped grounds.

The land was initially a military parade ground until 1966 when it was transformed into a public park named Farah, later renamed Laleh after 1979.

The Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art, located on the western edge of the park, holds an extensive collection of modern art from Iranian and international artists.

The park includes sports facilities, children's playgrounds, cycling paths, chess tables, a Japanese garden section, and multiple fountains for public recreation.

A sundial installation in the park demonstrates time measurement through solar position, while sculptures of Persian scholars Khayyam and Al-Biruni decorate the grounds.
