Rivers of Tehran, especially Darband and DarAbad have a double-edged essence. From one perspective, they hardly have a place in people’s image of the city , probably because of the simple fact that historically, the city’s water supply was based on a network of qanats. Hence, long before turning into canals, these rives were  considerable barriers for development instead of a vital source of life. From another perspective, they are a significant asset in regards to current environmental risks resulting from climate change.
