Farmanieh (also spelled Farmaniyeh) (Persian: فرمانیه) is a wealthy[1] district located in northern Greater Tehran in the area named Shemiran.

This area is centered on Farmaniyeh street, bordered by Niavaran to the north, Pasdaran and Aqdasiyeh streets to the east, Dezashib to the west, and Sadr highway in one part and Chizer and Anderzgo boulevard in the other part.

Kamraniye neighborhood, in the middle of Farmaniye region, divided it into two eastern and western parts.

Farmanieh lands belonged to Prince Abdul Hossein Mirza Farmanfarma, the prime minister of Iran in the last years of the Qajar dynasty.

Firouz, who was known for his extravagance, was forced to sell part of his property to the Italian embassy.
