Tehran Book Garden (Persian: باغ کتاب تهران, [Baqe-e Ketab]) is one of those unique and fantastic urban spaces that had been needed hard by millions of population and thousands of students of Tehran. A cultural and dynamic atmosphere has provided a window to wisdom as well as has turned into an identity for Tehran. Tehran Book Garden has obtained positive feedback internationally. If you are a bibliophile or a student, the Book Garden can suit your needs. If you have children and are looking for a quiet environment with facilities for children, the book garden is an attractive option for a scientific and recreational tour. Finally, if you are not in any of these groups and only want to spend a different afternoon, the Book Garden is still a unique option for browsing.

Previously, my only considerable experience with books and bookstores in Tehran was at the Tehran International Book Fair. Although it has been held for many years and has a large audience, it is a temporary fair. The book garden is designed to meet the constant need of the capital's residents for cultural products, especially books. Tehran Book Garden is a multi-year project that has been set up in the hills of Abbasabad and next to the National Library of Iran after several years of efforts to design a dynamic urban space for the well-read.
