The Tehran Gate in Qazvin, Iran, is one of only two surviving city gates of the historic city, distinguished by its Qajar-era architecture executed in brick, tile, and mortar. Located at the southeastern entrance, it once marked the threshold for travelers arriving from Tehran—a function reflected in its name. Originally built on the city's periphery, the gate now stands within Qazvin proper due to urban expansion. It is designated Iranian National Heritage site number 392. A corresponding gate, the Qazvin Gate, once stood at the opposite end of the Tehran-Qazvin road in Tehran itself.
