The role of cultural & historical axses of 12 region in tourism development in Tehran

One of the most important areas which is visited by tourists in different countries, is the urban area. Some of the researchers believe that urban are3as with high concentration of facilities and attractions would satisfy their visitors and residents. Old Tehran which its main part is in region 12,is the historical place of our country’s capital city, but its hidden cultural attractions, haven’t been paid attention and used as it deserves. This subject is important because today Tehran’s historical center has found different kinds of problems which solving them can increase this center’s attraction and activity. This project verifies a special region’s role (the city’s historical core) in Tehran’s tourism and tries to0 gain enough and useful information for researchers, planners and tourists. In this research three below hypothesis are verified: irst hypothesis: region 12 can be presented as the best pole of Tehran\s tourism and can change the useful characters related to tourism from the power to the act. Second hypothesis: planning for some ways in Tehran’s historical center, can increase the attraction and beauty of these centers for improvement of tourism. Third hypothesis: the tourism improvement can effect on renewing the Tehran’s historical area. One of the most important approaches which has been used in this research, is the “introducing- interpreting” way, by use of common library tools and observation. The main aim of this research is to explore and express some ways to improve the Tehran’s tourism via knowing the cultural touristic potentials of region 12. In this research, have been verified the development of touristic axis as one of the renewing ways in historical area of this city and tourist attraction. Planning for developments in pedestrians with the aim of protecting this area was one of the suggested important parts in renewing this region. The value and importance of this old area have attracted many tourists even with the most limited necessary equipments. According to mentioned points, it seems that one of the most effective ways in this renewing, is the continuous activities in these areas related to its physical and body abilities. While the city’s historical area is renewing and avoiding its more wears, we can introduce the tourism development planning according to the rebirth of city’s historical center. It seems that, only in this way we can renew region 12, as the culture and history’s core of Tehran’s tourism. This research presents the touristic and historical potentials of region 12, and has a new glance at the use and rebirth of this historical area in Tehran.
