What is the stargazing light pollution level in Tabriz, East Azerbaijan, Iran?

Tabriz, East Azerbaijan, Iran is a large metropolitan area — typically Bortle class 7–9 (bright, inner-city sky), where only the Moon, planets, and the brightest stars are visible. These are typical ranges for this population size, not a measured reading for this exact spot — use tonight's Moon phase and the best-nights list above to time a visit away from direct lighting.

Does Tabriz, East Azerbaijan, Iran's elevation help stargazing?

At 1396 m you are above a meaningful fraction of the atmosphere, which reduces extinction and scintillation — the reason major observatories are sited high.

What should I plan for observing near Tabriz, East Azerbaijan, Iran?

High sites reward targets that suffer most from atmosphere: planets at high altitude, faint nebulae, and the Milky Way, which culminates around 22.9° here. Cold and thinner air are the practical constraints, not the sky.

How dark does it actually get in Tabriz, East Azerbaijan, Iran tonight?

About 10.6 hours of astronomical darkness (Sun more than 18° below the horizon). That is the real observing window for faint objects; brighter targets are workable from dusk onward.

Local sky character in Tabriz

Northern mid-latitudes · northern hemisphere · 1396 m elevation

The north celestial pole stands 38.1° above the horizon, so stars within 38° of it never set from here.
About 80.8% of the whole sky rises above the horizon at some point in the year from this latitude.
The Milky Way's core in Sagittarius culminates about 22.9° up, staying low, so a clear southern horizon matters.
At 1396 m elevation, roughly 15% of the atmosphere's mass is already below you, which measurably reduces extinction near the horizon.
