TEHRAN As the press festival entered its third day yesterday, the pavilion of the TEHRAN TIMES drew a large number of visitors who showed keen interest in the English daily. The youths and educational authorities showed greater interest when they visited the pavilion of the TEHRAN TIMES with a number of queries about the daily. From the very first day when the press festival started, copies of the TEHRAN TIMES were made available for the visitors.

The enthusiasm showed by visitors at the press festival for the TEHRAN TIMES was unprecedented. The daily has made the provision for publishing a statement of Leader Ayatollah Seyed Ali Khamenei related to the responsibility and duty of the press. This published statement along with Leader's picture attracted the attention of the visitors. But, as expected, the TEHRAN TIMES Pavilion has been visited by many prominent figures, such as Dr. Abdullah Jasbi, the managing director of Afarinesh daily, Yousef Gharavi, the Coach of Piroozi Team, Hamid Derakhshan and others.

The daily's page of tourism was also a central point of attraction of the visitors of the pavilion.
