epah Qazvin Street, also called Ali Qapu or Government Street, today known as Shohada Street, extends from the north side to Chehelston Palace and the Qapu Supreme Mansion, and to the south side of the Old Town Mosque and beyond to Salamgah Street. And the road to Rai Ray finds its way. The east side of the street is also filled with old style brick shops. The street is apparently derived from the name of a neighborhood called Herat Street where King Tahmaseb lived in the Crown Prince. During the reign of Shah Safi, the street was extended from the south to the cemetery south of the city of Qazvin (Kahanbar Cemetery). Later this street was named after part of the old city neighborhood and this part of Qazvin was called the street neighborhood.
