Search flights from MHD to BUZ
Binalud Range
The highest peaks of Khorasan visible shortly after departure from Mashhad.
Namak Lake
Shimmering white salt flats located in the central plateau regions.
High Zagros Folds
Incredible views of the 'folded' mountain structures, showcasing millions of years of tectonic activity.
Bushehr Peninsula
A clear view of the city's unique geographic position on a narrow strip of land jutting into the sea.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights to witness the sunset over the Persian Gulf. During the final approach, you can often see the Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant and the naval port. Request a window seat away from the wing for the best view of the Zagros canyons.
Book Hotels in Bushehr
Holy Shrine Area
Aerial view of the massive Imam Reza complex and Mashhad's urban sprawl immediately after takeoff.
Dasht-e Kavir Edge
Views of the southern fringes of the Great Salt Desert with its unique geological swirl patterns.
Eastern Zagros
The parallel ridges of the Fars province mountains stretching toward the horizon.
Coastal Inlets
As the plane descends, view the shallow, turquoise waters where the desert meets the Persian Gulf.
Sit here for morning flights to keep the sun behind you. This side is better for spotting the vastness of the Iranian desert and the outskirts of Shiraz during the mid-flight phase. Watch for the change in soil color from brown to deep red near the coast.
