Seyed Khandan

Seyed Khandan

Seyed Khandān (wörtlich: Lachender Seyed) ist der Name eines Stadtteils im Zentrum von Teheran. Der Name lässt sich auf eine bekannte Anekdote zurückführen:

Demnach besaß ein stets fröhlicher und lachender Mann, genannt Seyed, ein Kaffeehaus (Ghaveh-khāneh) nördlich der heutigen Seyed Khandān-Brücke an der heutigen Dr. Ali Shari'ati Straße. Damals hieß diese Straße noch Jāddeh Ghadim (Alter Weg) und verband das Zentrum der Stadt mit dem Norden. Da die Autos noch sehr viel Zeit benötigten, um diese Strecke zu bewältigen, machten die Fahrer meist Rast und kehrten bei dieser Gelegenheit bei Seyed Khandān ein, dessen Café auf halber Strecke lag. Dem fröhlichen Seyed zu Ehren benannten sie den gesamten Stadtteil Seyed Khandān.
