About
Located in the Shemiran area in the northernmost part of Tehran, on the slopes of the Alborz mountain range, Valenjak is known for its beautiful landscape, mild climate, fresh mountain air, springs, and wildlife.
Velenjak is located adjacent to the Tochal Complex, a ski resort area with a gondola lift up to Mount Tochal. Because of the popularity of the recreational facilities, visitors are advised that Velenjak is always overcrowded on Fridays.
Velenjak houses a large number of foreign residents, particularly people of Korean descent who work in the finance and industrial firms throughout Tehran. Many embassies are located in Velenjak, including the embassies of Brunei, Côte d'Ivoire, Malaysia, Serbia and Montenegro, Algeria, and numerous ambassadorial residences. Shahid Beheshti University and Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, are also located in this area.
Usually the price of properties in this area is higher than that in most other suburbs of Tehran as well as the cost of living (although it varies depending on many regional factors).
The popular singer Benyamin Bahadori has stated that he is from Velenjak in an interview with Radio Javan.
