TEHRAN – Tajrish Metro Station in northern Tehran will be playing host to an exhibition of photos displaying the natural attractions of Finland.

Entitled “Four Seasons of Finland”, the exhibition will open on April 8 in conjunction with a trip by members of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the Parliament of Finland to Iran, Finnish Ambassador Harri Kamarainen has announced in a press release published on Tuesday.

 

“Tajrish Metro Station is a very good atelier, which can provide a good chance for citizens to see the photographs on show,” the ambassador said.

 

“This also means that all citizens must make use of the metro station to see the works and not their personal automobiles,” he added.

 

He also said that Finland has long been active in the preservation of the environment and has made the decision on holding the exhibit after observing Iranians’ interest in environmental protection.

 

The ambassador, who has long made efforts in protecting nature, says he was overwhelmed to see Iranian’s interest in green lifestyle protection.

 

Works by Finish photographers including Juha Sahlgren, Lasse Niskala, Minttu Saarni, Thomas Kasai and Hannu Hautala will be displayed until May 4.
