- Summary:
- Brimming with archival images and footage, this film examines the history of the Grand Bazaar of Tehran from its very beginnings until the present. It draws extensively on the written travel accounts of early European tourists and explores the Bazaar's architecture and culture, as well as the organization of the shops spread throughout multiple covered corridors extending more than 10 kilometers in length. This was a city within a city that developed within defensive walls at a location that has been a focus of commerce since at least the centuries that followed the Muslim conquest of Iran.
