TEHRAN (IFILM) -- Odlajan is one of the oldest and most historical neighborhoods of Tehran.
This neighborhood hosts many historical and natural attractions in its heart, such as Kazemi Palace and Nawab’s Bath.
One of the natural attractions is the plane tree, which has a life longer than the age of Odlajan neighborhood.
This 900-year-old plane tree has been living in the courtyard of Imamzadeh Yahya’s mausoleum for many years and is now called one of the oldest organisms in Tehran.
Mayflies live a day, and humans live a century, but the tree’s trunk is left after all these years.
It has been a witness to the city’s many changes over the centuries. Today, the tree is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike, who come to admire its beauty and reflect on the city’s rich history.
