5 of the most attractive places on Qeshm Island that you must visit during your trip to Iran.
Let’s start the list with one of the strangest valleys you can ever see.
Valley of the Stars
One of the most unique places on Qeshm Island is the Valley of the Stars. This valley is a collection of mountains, valleys, and cliffs that blur the beauty of every viewer. Due to factors such as rain, wind, etc., that this region has experienced, the mountains have taken on very strange shapes.
But why is this place called the Valley of the Stars? The natives there believe that these strange shapes were said to have been caused by a star hitting a large rock in the area.
Naaz Island
Naaz Island or Naz Islands is known as one of the most beautiful places in Qeshm. These islands are actually three rocks in the middle of the sea, when the seawater goes down, a path opens from the shore to these rocks and you can go to these rocks on foot, but when seawater comes up, the water completely covers up the way to the island. It is really enjoyable to stand on the rocks and watch the sea waves hit the rock.
Chahkuh Miz Strait
Chahkuh Miz Strait is another place of interest on Qeshm Island that you must visit during your trip to Iran. This natural phenomenon, as its name implies, is a gorge that is formed between a series of mountains and rocks and there are several wells in it. Wells that differ in depth. Apart from the beautiful scenery of the wells, the cliffs themselves and passing through them are also attractive. Mountains and cliffs that the farther we go, the shorter their distance become.

Haraa’ forest
One of the most special natural phenomena not only in Qeshm but also in Iran is the haraa’ forest. Since this forest is one of the most popular sights in Qeshm, be sure to visit them when traveling to Iran. The wonder of this place is that the trees have grown in the salty waters of the sea. The intertwined roots of haraa’ trees are resistant to water salinity and remove salt from their leaves.
Qeshm khurbas Cave
Due to the geographical location of Qeshm, this island has several caves. One of these caves is Khurbas Cave. Khurbas Cave is a collection of small holes in the heart of a mountain. In the past, these cavities were shaped like rooms by people and were a safe haven for them to live.
