Jomhuri is officially known as Jomhuri Islami Avenue which means Islamic republic. Located in the city centre, Jomhuri Avenue is one of Tehran's commercial centres for electronic equipment e.g. computer and mobile phones. It is home to Tehran's biggest mobile phone shopping centre, Alaeddin (known as Bazaar-e Alaeddin). It is also the place where Tehran youngsters usually hang out, talk and flirt during the evenings.

Before the 1979 Revolution, the avenue's name was Shah (King).[1]
