Visibility is a new topic that is linked to the issue of minorities in today's societies. Minority groups attempt to enhance visibility and make the other groups recognize them in their own societies. This research tries to study Zoroastrians visibility as a religious minority in Tehran. The main question is that how is the visibility of Zoroastrian minority as one of the three legal religious minorities in the public space of Tehran city? For this purpose, we applied different research techniques, including observation, Participant observation, in-depth interviews and documentary studies methods. The research results showed that according to four indicators as place, rites, media, and coverage, Zoroastrians are barely visible in the public space of Tehran. Consequently, unlike the religious minorities in other countries, such as European societies, Zoroastrians do not want to improve the visibility of their religious minority in the public space of Tehran.
