Ugliest Places

Valiasr Street

Most remains of old #Tehran look like this. And soon, they are torn down to make way for shiny, ugly new buildings.

"Most of Tehran's historical buildings where destroyed in the 50s, 60s and 80s. They rebuild it with cheap buildings. And public city planning is not that strict in Iran.”

Why is #Tehran so ugly? The buildings have no harmony, they all look gray and dirty and ugly; there is no color, no pavement because of the constant construction. It’s just—soulless.

Zafaraniyeh

"Often rated among the worst cities in the world to call home, Tehran is about as attractive as a dropped pie. The traffic is ridiculous, the pavements dangerous, and there's usually smog.There's a lot to love about Tehran – it's just that appearance isn't one of them."
