Strait of Hormuz
Aerial views of the narrow, strategically vital waterway and the blue waters of the Persian Gulf during initial ascent.
Zagros Folded Belt
Incredible geological formations featuring long, parallel ridges and deep valleys characteristic of southern Iran.
Sirjan Salt Lake
A massive, shimmering white salt crust (Kavir-e-Sirjan) that provides a stunning color contrast against the arid brown landscape.
Pistachio Orchards
As you approach the Kerman-Yazd border, look for the geometric green patterns of massive pistachio plantations.
Book a morning flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the mountain ridges and reducing glare from the white salt flats. The Sirjan lake is most vibrant in late winter or early spring when a thin layer of water may reflect the sky.

Vast, undulating desert landscapes and rugged hinterlands that showcase the raw beauty of the Iranian interior.
Khabr National Park
Distant views of the protected mountainous wilderness known for its biodiversity and high peaks.
Yazd Historical Center
During the final descent into AZD, look for the unique adobe architecture and the tall wind towers (badgirs) of the city.
The right side is excellent for photography of the desert textures. Keep your camera ready during the final 10 minutes of the flight, as the approach to Yazd often provides a clear view of the city's UNESCO-listed historic mud-brick skyline.
