TABIAAT BRIDGE

On October 14, 2014, the Tabiaat Bridge was Inaugurated, a huge pedestrian walkway of futuristic architecture, a great success, which links over the highways Ab-o-Atash Park to the west and Taleghani park to the east. It's the country's largest pedestrian bridge. Taabiat means "nature" in Persia, a name that fits very well with this airy structure connecting two large public gardens, one urban and landscaped, the other steep and wooded, on the background of the mountains. This structure is signed by the architect Leila Araghian and the company Diba. The Tabiaat Bridge is more than a passage, it is a space at several levels, a place of living with a coffee, a place where walking, skater, bike or even climbing on horseback… The third level is dedicated to contemplation, to appreciate the magnificent view of Tehran that the Bridge offers. This footbridge required two years of work, more than 14 000 metal pieces, assembled more than 40 metres from the ground and weighs more than 2 000 tonnes. A symbol for Tehran and a true bridge between nature, tourism and urbanity. Don't miss it!
