It is bounded by Tajrish to the north, Valiasr Street and Modarres Expressway to the west, Sadr Bridge to the south, and Shariati Street to the east. Elahieh is located in District 1 of Tehran Municipality and within Shemiranat County. This area hosts many diplomatic buildings and residences for foreign nationals. Elahieh is considered one of the wealthiest areas in Tehran. While it is now a residential area with expensive apartments, it was previously home to large, privately owned gardens. It is home to the Iranian Art Museum Garden. According to the Divar website, the most expensive houses and shops per square meter are located in Elahieh and Kamranieh. The neighborhood is accessible via the Shahid Sadr Metro Station and Qeytarieh Metro Station. The Dr. Hesabi Museum and the Iranian Music Museum are located in this area.
