Laleh Park (Persian: پارک لاله, romanizedPârk-e Laleh), formerly called Farah Park after Farah Diba, is a large recreation area in Tehran, Iran. Laleh (لاله) is the Persian word for tulip,[1] which is also a popular symbol in Iranian culture.

The park (one of c. 800 parks in Tehran) lies north of University of Tehran in the city centre. It is one of the largest parks in Tehran.[2]
