Barg-e Jahan (Persian: برگجهان, also Romanized as Barg-e Jahān; also known as Bafkejan and Bafkijan)[1] is a village in Lavasan-e Kuchak Rural District, Lavasanat District, Shemiranat County, Tehran Province, Iran. Literally, Barg-e-Jahan means Leaf-of-the-World in Persian language which indicates the green area of the surroundings. At the 2006 census, its population was 378, in 116 families.[2]

The village enjoys cool summers and is therefore used as a recreational village for those living in busy Tehran, especially in summer season. Most of its region is covered by fruit gardens including wall-nuts, apples, cherries, sour-cherries, plums and apricots.
