They are a part of my city, this dirty big Tehran. The mesmerizing scent of honeysuckle blossoms on old walls is so memorable in spring.
Thanks to Soodabeh, my friend, who informed me about the correct name for the flower.

Nice shot Behrooz! Excuse me but.... it isn't Jasmine! Jasmine is the flower we name"Yasaman or Mahboobeye Shab" in persian. The flower you showed here is Honeysuckle (Scientific name Lonicera L.) That we call it "Pich e Aminoddoleh" in persian!! Most of the people call it "Yass" in general but it's wrong. I excuse again. BTW did you taste this flower's nectar?? So sweet and fragrant!! :-)

@Soodabeh: Many thanks, Soodabeh. You are great. I did the same mistake as everybody around here, calling them Yass. I thought they are just another kind of Jasmine. (What's expected from a computer guy to know about nature! :P) BTW, I corrected the title and description. Thanks again.
Nice shot...
