Ferdows Garden: A Symbolic Cultural Space in Tehran
The choice of Ferdows Garden as the venue was deeply meaningful. This historic complex, dating back to the Qajar era, is one of Tehran’s most iconic cultural landmarks.
Located in northern Tehran, Ferdows Garden has long been associated with art, cinema, and intellectual gatherings. Since 2002, it has housed the Cinema Museum of Iran, making it a central hub for filmmakers, actors, and cultural enthusiasts.
Holding a public gathering in this space during wartime conditions was not just a logistical decision—it was a symbolic act. It reinforced the idea that culture remains alive, even when political tensions escalate.
