Boulevard Lalezar, Tehran, Iran (circa 1910s): A captivating glimpse into the past of Tehran's bustling Boulevard Lalezar, as depicted in this evocative photograph from the early 1900s. The image showcases the vibrant energy and diversity of the city's urban landscape, with horse-drawn carriages and a street tram making their way along the cobblestone road. The boulevard, named after the famous Iranian poet, Mirza Abolhasan Lahiji, was once the heart of Tehran's commercial district. In this photograph, we can observe a variety of shops and businesses lining the street, including an optician's storefront. The optician's sign, adorned with an elegant script, invites passersby to enter and browse their selection of eyeglasses and optical devices. The horse-drawn carriage, a common mode of transportation during this era, adds a touch of nostalgia to the scene. The horse, harnessed and ready to go, appears calm and patient as its passengers wait for their turn to board. The photograph masterfully captures the interplay of modernity and tradition, as the tram and the horse-drawn carriage coexist on the same bustling thoroughfare. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Tehran and Iran, offering a fascinating glimpse into the city's past. The image invites us to reflect on the changes that have taken place over the years and to appreciate the enduring allure of this vibrant and dynamic urban center.
