Three days later, on May 6, 1329, the train arrived in Tehran, and after a glorious ceremony, the body of the founder of New Iran was buried in a tomb built for him next to the shrine of King Abdolazim in the city of Rey.
This is the first time that the complete and historical film of the transfer of the body from Cairo to Iran and then the last trip of Reza Shah from Ahvaz to Tehran and the funeral ceremony in Tehran will be shown.
