Tehran Souvenirs

Tehran is the most populous city and capital of Iran. Tehran is one of the most important tourist centers in Iran; and this city has a collection of tourist attractions that include it’s palaces and museums. After visiting Tehran tourism attractions it is time for buying souvenirs! You might think that Tehran does not have many souvenirs! To some extent you are right, because you can find most of the handicrafts that exist in Tehran in other cities that are producers themselves too. That is why when it comes to Tehran souvenirs, the only thing that comes to mind is clothes, bags and shoes; because Tehran is a city of colorful malls and there are fewer streets that do not have a shopping center. Of course, others, like us, have a different opinion and believe that Tehran’s souvenirs do not end with clothes alone. So be with us!

Let’s see what are Tehran souvenirs!

Tehran, like other cities in Iran, has famous souvenirs, including delicious food souvenirs as well as handicrafts. In the following, we will introduce some of the most famous souvenirs of Tehran so that you can buy them during your trip.

Apples | The most delicious apples of Iran are here; in Damavand!

The best product of this region is Damavand’s apple. If you spend your summer in Tehran and visited Damavand, it is a pity to leave Damavand without buying a few kilos of apples. The apples produced this season are known by the names of Shafiabad, Gulab, Kohanz and Ghandak.

You can also buy Damavand’s apples in autumn tooo. Damavand apples have different varieties in this season too; autumn apples contain name such as Shemirani, Golshahi, Abbasi Mashhad, Daryan and Akhlamad. Among this list, Gulab apple (translates as rose water) is probably the most familiar apple model that you come across. We call it Gulab, because it is so tasty and tastes a little like rose water too! Damavand apples are one of the most delicious souvenirs of Tehran that although it’ll be hard to bring it back to your country, we recommend you to have the experience of tasting it!

Golaj bread | Special Firoozkooh souvenir

Firoozkooh Golaj bread is another lesser known souvenir of Tehran province. This delicious bread is popular among the tribes of Firoozkooh and you can buy it’s original bread from them. Firoozkooh and Damavand are near each other; so if you went to Damavand and tried it’s delicious apples, we suggest you not t forget trying this souvenir too!

This tasty and healthy bread in the refrigerator lasts up to a month; So you can easily buy some and bring back to your country. Golaj bread is very nutritious due to the new raw materials that are used from livestock and grains of nomadic environment. The ingredients of this delicious bread are fresh milk, fresh flour, water, local eggs, bread dough and cinnamon. After mixing the ingredients and making the dough, they knead it for a long time and then roll it and fry it in animal oil.

Plums and fruit roll ups | If you are a fan of savory, visit Darband!

In addition to a pleasant atmosphere, sightseeing and entertainment, Darband is a good place to buy plums and lavashk (friuit roll ups), which are among the most delicious souvenirs that you can take with you from your trip to Tehran.

Local herbs | In case you are a fan of their amazing aroma

You can find many local and mountain vegetables on the outskirts of Tehran, especially in a city like Firoozkooh. In spring, if you go to the mountains of this city, you can find different types of mountain vegetables, mushrooms and herbal medicine. Of course, do not forget that spring is the growing season of these beautiful and tasty vegetables.

If you have a trip to Tehran, you can visit cities such as Damavand and Firoozkooh to buy these local herbs. And if you didn’t get the chance to visit these cities go to Tajrish bazaar and you can find all of these herbs there!

Batik printing cloth | A rare and colorful souvenir of Tehran

Batik printing is a kind of art printing on fabric that is more common in the cities of Tabriz, Osco and Tehran. In this printing model, they print different designs on the fabric using molds. To do this, they use natural colors such as turmeric, pomegranate, ronak and spark. But considering the situation of Tehran handicrafts, the probability of finding these souvenirs in Tehran is very low!

Carpet and jajim | Carpets are of course the most famous souvenirs in Iran!

One of the most common handicrafts of Iran is carpet weaving; and Tehran province is not an exception. Carpet and Jajim weaving has grown significantly in rural areas of Tehran, especially in non-urban areas of Karaj, Damavand and Shemiranat. But in Tehran, there are also carpet weaving artists who have focused their main activities in the field of face weaving, table weaving and volume effects.

Leather painting | One of the most popular Tehran souvenirs

Tehran is famous for it’s leathers and most people call it “Leather mine!”. Leather painting is a valuable souvenir of Tehran left from the Qajar period in this city; and is one of the famous handicrafts that is specific to the city of Tehran. After painting on leather, painting and drawing on fabric were also promoted among Tehran craftsmen. So if you want to spend less on souvenirs you can buy fabrics with paint on them.
