    TEHRAN – I am in the Behesht-e Zahra Cemetery, the largest burial ground in Tehran which is the resting place of generations. Established in 1963 (1342 in the Persian calendar) and named “Behesht-e Zahra” after consultations among the city’s council of elders and merchants at the home of the late Seyyed Ahmad Khansari, this cemetery has since become a landmark in the capital’s history.
