Miniature Mountains

Introduction:
On a trip to Chabahar, about 40 to 50 kilometers after Chabahar city towards the port of Gwatar, you will see miniature mountains that stand out on the left side of the road.
These special mountains were created as a result of rapid erosion by wind and rain in this area.
The material of these mountains is sedimentary, they are jagged and lack vegetation.
The height of these mountains varies from 5 meters in some places to more than 100 meters in other places.
These mountains are further along the Zagros Mountains and then reach Pakistan.
The reason why these mountains are called miniature mountains is because of the strange shape of these mountains and the view they have in front of the sea. Due to the similarity of the shape and color of their soil to the planet Mars, they are also known as the Martian mountains.
