Evin
<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
Evin is a neighbourhood in the north of Tehran.
The district consists of an old section, filled with orchards and gardens of old houses, and a new section, with high rises and skyscrapers.[1]
It is adjacent to Shahid Beheshti University campus and is notorious for the nearby Evin Prison, a detention centre famous for atrocities committed against political prisoners, both in the pre-1979 period and in the post-revolutionary period.
It is minutes away from the Darakeh hiking trail. Hiking is a national pastime in Iran, and this trail thus brings many tourists to the area.[2]
