A unique building in the world. It iis the symbol of Iran that is built about 50 years ago. Personally I love this tower and try to see her each month. Its white tiles are wonderful.engineering. It is worth seeing to travel to Tehran. Near the Azadi airport and near the city terminal where you can go to many cities in Iran. The only drawback you saw there was that it was very crowded and crowded. this square is one of the most beautiful one in Tehran, there is a beautiful gallery and also you can walk around or go to the upstairs to watch around of the Tehran. you should read the details of this square because for each part of Azadi there is a story.This is the most Iconic structure in the city and is also known as Freedom Tower. The Tower is beautifully built and is situated in a great spot for lots of good photos. A must see when in the city. In 1966, the Shah, eager to display the wealth generated from oil exploration, and to distance himself from past political turmoil, held a competition to design a monument to commemorate his rule, and the 2500th anniversary of the founding of the Achaemenid Empire under Cyrus the Great. Architect Hossein Amanat had just graduated from the University of Tehran when he learned about the competition, and he abandoned plans to continue his studies in the United States, instead forming a small architecture studio in his bedroom to work on a design for the monument. With the help of a few friends who were still in school, Amanat’s design–inspired by his fascination with Persian history–won the competition. Unfortunately, a 2013 report from Reuters indicated that the tower has recently been suffering from neglect, including cracked ceilings, water damage, and peeling walls. Recent repairs had damaged the drainage system, exacerbating water damage in the structure. Officials indicated that repairs were being planned, but the story found that previous repairs had been carried out with low quality materials, raising doubts about the effectiveness of any future efforts.
