Teheranno (alternatively
Teheran-ro, translation "
Tehran Boulevard") is a street in the
Gangnam district of
Seoul,
South Korea. It runs from
Gangnam Station through
Yeoksam-dong and into
Samseong-dong. It is colloquially known as "
Teheran Valley" (after
Silicon Valley) due to the number of
internet-related companies operating there. The district of
Gangnam-gu experienced phenomenal growth and waves of construction, with Teheranno becoming one of the busiest streets in South Korea. Its counterpart, Seoul St. in Tehran, runs in the north of that city, close to the
Evin district.
