Is that the former embassy?

Nope, the former embassy is right at the most important crossroads in the whole city (http://maps.google.com/?ll=35.707972,51.424202&t=k&z=18).

A couple of you have gotten close, and one of you has even mentioned the correct name of the object as one of a list of possibilities. If you're looking for a hint, it's not this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behesht-e_Zahra), either: that's here (http://maps.google.com/?ll=35.549023,51.366459&t=h&z=18).

Taking a wild guess, a cemetery in Tehran. But I'm not sure of the significance of this one.

It doesn't appear to be Behesht Zahra cemetery (The tomb of Ayatollah Khomeini). It doesn't match the cemetery's map.

The only other cemetery I found by name is Beheshtieh (a Jewish cemetery).

It is in fact Beheshtieh (http://beheshtieh.com/). You can tell by the design of the building in the background of this picture (http://beheshtieh.com/Resources/View-of-Beh-11.jpg).
