Marzanabad (Persian: مرزن آباد)[a] is a city in, and the capital of, Marzanabad District of Chalus County, Mazandaran province, Iran.[4]

## Demographics

[edit]

### Population

[edit]

At the time of the 2006 National Census, the city's population was 5,078 in 1,335 households, when it was in the former Kelardasht District.[5] The following census in 2011 counted 5,789 people in 1,406 households,[6] by which time the city had been separated from the district in the formation of Marzanabad District.[4] The 2016 census measured the population of the city as 6,698 people in 1,841 households.[2]

## Geography

[edit]

Marzanabad is the closest green city of Mazandaran province to Tehran while passing through the beautiful road of Tehran-Chalus, one of three major roads that connect Tehran to Mazandaran province, and the shortest path towards Caspian Sea from Tehran.

Marzanabad is located on a T-junction of the roads towards Tehran, Chalus and Kelardasht. It is about 25 km away from both Chalus and Kelardasht while it is about 170 km away from Tehran via Tehran-Chalus road. Due to the location of the city, it attracts thousands of tourists each year from all parts of Iran, but especially from Tehran.

Marzanabad is close to the site of the medieval town of Sa‘īdābād, which served as a garrison town during Abbasid times.[7]: 14 [8]
