'''Bandar-e Anzali''' ('''Anzali Port''') is a harbour town ("Bandar" means "port") on the '''[[Caspian Sea]]''', close to [[Rasht]]. Bandar-e Anzali is one of the most important seaports in the north of Iran. It consists of an island called ''Mianposhteh'' and the surrounding lands. Tourist attractions include a clock tower called ''Manareh'', the long harbour promenade, and the water-logged delta of and beach along the [[Sefid River]].
Bandar-e Anzali is the port where the [[Poland|Polish]] [[Anders Army]] disembarked, in an operation that lasted from April 1 until October, 1942, after evacuating from the [[USSR]]. The Polish Cemetery in the city was created the same year.

== History ==
Anzali is an old city in ancient Iran, they are related to [[Kadusin]], owing to their pleasant relationship with Cyprus and their cooperation in battles, they changed their name to Anzan (Anshan-e Pars) "The Anshans of Persia", in which the Greeks called Anzaluy.
This word In Pahlavi language means Anzalag and the variant Persian form of it is Anzalazh. Anzali Gulf was a safe harbour for trade ships and fishing boats. It was renamed to Pahlavi in 1935.

In 1919, with the collapse of General Anton Denikin's White Russian army, eighteen of his ships sought refuge in Anzali. On 18 May 1920, a Soviet flotilla of thirteen ships launched a surprise attack on Anzali, capturing the British garrison and the eighteen White Russian ships. This allowed for the establishment of the short-lived Persian Socialist Republic and the Persian Communist Party. Soviet authorities denied responsibility for the attack, blaming the local Russian naval commander for attacking under his own authority.<ref>A Peace to End All Peace, David Fromkin, 1989, pp.458-459.</ref>

Its wonderful lagoon, Customs and City Hall edifice (Shahrdari), Mian Poshte Palace and Motamedi Edifice, are its tourist attractions. Until 1980, when it was moved to Noshahr, Anzali was the site of the Caspian University of Naval Science. The structure Of Naser-al-din Shah Place which was built by Moayer-ol-mamalekk and its famous Sangi Bath was destroyed by people and natural factors.

A wonder of Sangi Bath was the system of heating and durability water in its basins. Some groups think that Motamedi edifice had been changed; it is now its police office. This Ghajar Structure built in two floors with the help of Mirza Abd-ol-Vahab.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://anzaliclub.ir/%D8%AA%D8%A7%D8%B1%DB%8C%D8%AE-%D8%A7%D9%86%D8%B2%D9%84%DB%8C/|title=انزلی کلاب|work=انزلی کلاب|accessdate=8 October 2015}}</ref>

==Geography==
[[File:AC-Borj-e-Tavoos.jpg|thumb|250px|Tovoos Tower, the tallest tower in Bandar-e Anzali]]
The [[Anzali Lagoon]] divides the Anzali Port in two parts. The town is connected by two bridges to the ''Beheshti Island''. There is a caviar processing factory in Bandar-e Anzali, some old ruins from 19th century and the popular ''Shanbeh Bazaar''. ''Tourbebar'' is a village about 40 kilometers from Bandar-e Anzali, near the Anzali Lagoon.

==Climate==
Bandar-e Anzali has the most humid climate of any city in Iran, having a climate somewhat similar in its heavy autumn and early winter rainfall and persistent high humidity and low sunshine to the [[Hokuriku region|Sea of Japan coast]] of [[Japan]], though it receives much less summer rainfall than that region. It remains classified as a [[humid subtropical climate]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]] ''Cfa''). The warm and humid weather has allowed this region to grow crops such as [[rice]] and [[tea]] that require very large amounts of moisture, especially with the extra water draining from the Elburz Mountains.
