Gisha or Guisha (Persian: گیشا, also called Kuy-e Nasr, Persian: کوی نصر), originally Kisha (from the names of its two founders, "Keynejad" and "Shapourian"), is a neighborhood in Tehran, Iran. The neighborhood was known as a center for youth recreation, shopping, and dating. Guisha is home to the marketplace Bazzar-e Nasr (Persian: بازار نصر). The Iranian Bank of Agriculture is also headquartered in Guisha.
In 2017, Gisha's newly constructed Orsi Khaneh residential apartment block won the Residential Project of the Year award at the 10th annual Middle East Architect Awards in Dubai.[1]
