Karaj is a city in the Central District of Karaj County, Alborz province, Iran, serving as capital of the province, the county, and the district. Earliest evidence of inhabitation in Karaj can be dated to the Bronze Age at Tepe Khurvin. The city was developed under the rule of the Safavid and Qajar Empire and is home to historical buildings and memorials from those eras. This city has a unique climate due to access to natural resources such as many trees, rivers, and green plains. After Tehran, Karaj is the largest immigrant-friendly city in Iran, so it has been nicknamed "Little Iran."
Distance-wise, Karaj is closest to Dubai (~1,250 km), London (~4,359 km), Singapore (~6,646 km); Sydney is the far end at roughly 12,950 km. That ordering matters more than the timezone label for travel planning.
