Mashhad Rizeh (Persian: مشهد ريزه)[a] is a city in, and the capital of, Miyan Velayat District of Taybad County, Razavi Khorasan province, Iran.[4] It also serves as the administrative center for Dasht-e Taybad Rural District.[5][b]
At the 2006 census, its population was 8,307 in 1,808 households.[6] The following census in 2011 counted 9,211 people in 2,403 households.[7] The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 10,105 people in 2,781 households.[2]
The real name of this town is Rizeh, which originates from the word rizeh (رزه), meaning "vine," because of the vast vineyards in the village. Rizeh is one of the oldest villages in Taybad County. According to popular belief, Rizeh is the remnant of a larger town named Rezvan; the decline after having reached its prime has resulted in the current village, and Rizeh emerges from the name of Rezvan. The town had been surrounded by a wall with the name of Shahrband ("surrounded town"), which indicates the accuracy of this remark.[citation needed] In 2006, out of the combination of Rizeh and Mashhad Rizeh, the village of Mashhad Rizeh has developed.[citation needed]
