Caption: walking through Tehran's TAJRISH BAZAAR OCT. 2013
Picture
Caption: The traditional bazaar of Tajrish is located in the north of Tehran, the capital of Iran. I used
to live in this neighborhood and so many times I walked through the small bazaar to get home. One of the wonders of this beautiful place and its surroundings
is that they have contradictionally saved the traditional architectural and social texture, despite the highly modernized & westernized area.

like fresh burberries.

From curry...

to piles of pistachios & nuts.
