This time according to one of my friends request I decided to write about my city ,Tehran
At first I will give some total information
Tehran (or Teheran) (
tʰehˈɾɒn (help·info); Persian: تهران Tehrān) is the capital and largest city of Iran, and the administrative center of Tehran Province. Tehran is a sprawling city at the foot of the Alborz mountain range (the highest point in the Middle East (1,191 m, 3,900 ft)) with an immense network of highways unparalleled in Western Asia. Tehran is famous for its numerous ski resorts on the Alborz slopes, large museums, art centers, and palace complexes. Tehran is the largest city in the Middle East and is the most populated city in South Western Asia with a population of 7,404,515 and approximately 15 million in Greater Tehran.

Most Iranian industries are headquartered in Tehran. The industries include the manufacturing of automobiles, electrical equipment, military weaponry, textiles, sugar, cement, and chemical products. It is also a leading center for the sale of carpets and furniture. There is also an oil refinery located in south of the city.
In the 20th century, Tehran faced a large migration of people from all around Iran. Today, the city contains a mix of various ethnic and religious minorities, and is filled with many historic
mosques, churches, synagogues and Zoroastrian fire temples.[citation needed]

Hello there,

I followed your link here from your profile on penpalworld.net. I hope it's ok to comment here. You seem very interesting, and I was wondering if you'd like to exchange emails. I'm a 20 year old art student in america. We are probably coming from very different places but that might make for an interesting dialogue over email, no? Also, I really love to send my penpals handmade gifts. Hope to hear from you soon,
Celine
