Elahiyeh

Neighborhood in Iran
Wealthy families, diplomats, expats and celebrities live in prestigious Elahiyeh, where high-end boutiques, chic cafes and restaurants, and sleek shopping malls line Fereshteh Street. Foreign embassies with clubhouses and expansive, leafy gardens dot the neighborhood. Eminent Iranian physicist Mahmoud Hessabi's home, now a museum, sits beside the Iranian Art Museum Garden and its scale replicas of Iranian landmarks.
