Introducing Milad Tower in Tehran

Tehran’s Milad Tower is the sixth tallest telecommunication tower in the world and the third tallest tower in the Middle East, which was built in the capital of Iran. This tall tower with a height of 435 meters is considered one of the attractions of Tehran. Also, this structure is known as the 20th leaning tower in the world, which is firmly in place without any supports!

Milad Tower in Tehran has different sections such as administrative, commercial, tourism and entertainment. Different parts of this building allow visitors to experience a fun day in a different atmosphere. The reason for the popularity of this structure among people is the interesting architecture of the building along with various entertainment parts in an accessible place. This tower provides an opportunity for the residents of the capital to get away from their daily worries and have fun in its area.

The height of the Milad Tower has caused this beautiful and different structure to be visible from anywhere in the capital and become a symbol of Tehran in the world. Tehran’s Milad Tower is also widely used in meeting the city’s television and telecommunication needs and has a significant impact on the optimization and expansion of wireless network coverage. With wide coverage of radio and television frequencies, this building provides a suitable infrastructure for digital and new televisions.

Where did the story of Milad Tower in Tehran begin?

There are two views on the history of the construction of this magnificent building. In the first view, based on some available sources, the idea of ​​building this telecommunication section is considered part of a larger project called Shahestan Pahlavi, and its design is attributed to Jacqueline Robertson, an American. Shahstan Pahlavi was a huge project of 5 hectares during the time of Pahlavi II, in which the construction of a telecommunication tower was considered a part of that plan.

On the other hand, in some other sources, they have denied any connection between the design of this building and the previous era and attributed its construction to the era after the Iranian revolution. These sources have proposed the idea of ​​building this tower in the early 70s as a new symbol in Tehran. In the initial research of this project, Tehran Municipality, after examining different parts of the city, finally reached 4 points, among which Koi Geisha was chosen to implement the project. But what were the desirable characteristics of Koi Geisha to build such a huge project?

Koi Nasr or Koi Geisha is one of the highest points of the city, which has a good aristocracy over the capital. This point, along with good access to different parts of the city, also had the necessary infrastructure to build such a project. Also, being located near Tehran’s highways and coordinated uses, good television coverage and proximity to passenger terminals were other features of Koi Nasr.

After the selection of Koi Geisha and the feasibility studies, finally the implementation of the project started in 1376 under the supervision of Dr. Mohammad Reza Hafezi, a professor at the Faculty of Fine Arts at Shahid Beheshti University and the architect and designer of the project. This tower was originally named Yadman and then it was renamed to Milad Tower due to the 100th anniversary of Imam Khomeini’s birth in 1380. Also, Yadman Saze company, which was introduced by the municipality, was in charge of the implementation of this project. The construction of Milad Tower in Tehran took 11 years and was finally opened on 16 Mehr 2007 in the presence of the mayor of Tehran and representatives and officials.
