Tabriz

Tabriz (Persian: تبریز,Azerbaijani: تبریز ) is the fourth largest city of Iran and the capital of East Azarbaijan Province. Situated at an altitude of 1,350 meters at the junction of the Quri River and Aji River, it was the second largest city in Iran until the late 1960s, one of its former capitals and residence of the crown prince under the Qajar dynasty. The city has proven extremely influential in the country’s recent history. Tabriz is located in a valley to the north of the long ridge of the volcanic cone of Sahand, south of the Eynali mountain. The valley opens out into a plain that slopes down gently to the northern end of Lake Urmia, 60 km to the west.
With a population of about 1,400,000 Tabriz is Iran's fourth largest city, after Tehran, Mashhad and Esfahān and the second industrial city after Tehran. It is a summer resort and a commercial, industrial, and transportation center.
With a very rich history, Tabriz once housed many historical monuments. Unfortunately, many of them were destroyed in repeated invasions and attacks by foreign forces, combined with the negligence of the ruling governments, and natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods. What remains now mostly dates back to the Ilkhanid, the Safavid, and the Qajar periods. Some of the monuments are unrivalled masterpieces of architecture.

Merhaba Burak,

Nice daily life scene from the Tabriz!
I like the mood into the picture, especially the guy who is ready with a fresh snowball in his hand, and might throw it on you after you took this shot :)
The sharpness and POV are nice and so is the colors in the picture. Well seen.

thanks and regards,
Paras
