Not a Centaurea (which is a member of Asteraceae subfamily Carduoideae). Not sure what genus it is, but definitely something in the Asteraceae subfamily Cichorioideae.

Thanks, do you know a book for beginners? I don't even know the basic steps in detecting a plant.

There are various books suitable for beginners covering Britain / northern Europe. Unfortunately nothing that I know of covering the Flora of Iran (which is why I'm unable to identify this one to genus!). You'll have to see what is available in Iran.
