Tehran in five emoji

What each emoji refers to

🧶

Persian carpets are knotted rather than woven, and a fine one can hold over a million knots per square metre.

🥜

Iran and the United States trade places as the largest pistachio producer depending on the harvest.

🏔️

The Alborz run along the northern edge, and Damavand behind them is the highest peak in Asia west of the Himalaya.

🍵

Tea is drunk through a sugar cube held in the teeth rather than stirred in.

🕌

The tilework runs to geometric pattern rather than figures, in blues that were mixed to survive the sun.
