Overview

There are signs of human habitation in the Qazvin region in the fourth and fifth millennia BC. Some sources state that Qazvin was part of the territory of the Medes. However, the history of the construction of Qazvin city goes back to the Sassanid era and the time of Shapur Zulaktaf. At that time, Qazvin had a military position, but over time it expanded and the core of Qazvin city was formed.

Qazvin was the capital of Iran for a while during the Safavid period. A city where Sepah Street, the first modern street of Iran, stands out in its center.

Sarayeh Saad al-Sultaneh, located in the center of Qazvin city, is the largest urban caravanserai in Iran, which has become a tourist attraction as well as a shopping market after renovation and restoration.

Starting the tour

After picking you up from your accommodation in Tehran, first we will visit Chehelston mansion or Kolah Ferangi. It is one of the important works of the Safavid period and the only remaining pavilion of the royal palaces of Shah Tahmasab in the middle of the 10th century AH. This building, which has an area of about 500 square meters, is built on two floors based on Iranian architecture and includes wall paintings that are a rare example of Qazvin school art.

Next, we will visit Peyghambariyeh Mosque. The tomb of the four prophets, which is one of the oldest sacred shrines for the followers of the heavenly religions of Judaism, Christianity and Islam in Iran, is located in the city of Qazvin.

Sepah Street

Then we will have a look at Aali Qapu facade and Sepah Street, which is the first modern street of Iran.

Saad al-Saltaneh Caravanserai

From here, we will go to Saad al-Saltaneh Caravanserai. It is one of the most famous sights of Qazvin, which was registered as a national monument on 1998. This caravanserai with an area of 26,000 square meters was used as a commercial caravanserai in the past, and today it is the largest urban caravanserai in Iran and the largest caravanserai in Qazvin.
