Ride on a piece of history. The Trans-Iranian Railway, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was the site of a key turning point in World War II. The allied forces used this extremely important geographic route, known as the “Persian Corridor”, to help win the war. Most of the routes that were originally built almost a hundred years ago are still in use today. You can experience a piece of this pivotal moment in history and ride on Iran’s extensive network of rails.
The railway connects the Caspian Sea in the north with the Persian Gulf in the south, crossing two mountain ranges, the Alborz and the Zagros, as well as forests, plains, highlands, rivers and 4 distinct climate zones.
Construction of the railway took place from 1927 to 1938, executed by the Iranian government and completed in record time by 43 international contractors. The project was unique in that it was almost entirely funded through domestic capital to avoid foreign investment and control.
