Correct for three points! Congratulations for nailing a hard one, tw101356!
These days, the real center of revolutionary fervor at Behesht-e Zahra ("The Paradise of Zahara") is the modest grave of a young woman killed by a gunshot in Iran's ongoing pro-democracy struggle, Neda Soltani.
Ayatollah Khomeini indeed also has a huge, ugly shrine there.

Well, I was going to say it was a open-air fermentation farm for Kosher dill pickles; but I guess you could say that wouldn't even be in the ballpark. (so silly)

Great guess, but sadly too late.
