Iran's niche travel destination: Qeshm Island guide

🇮🇷Iran’s niche travel destination|Qeshm Island guide is here! Qeshm Island is the largest island in southern Iran. It is visa-free for Europeans and Americans, but they can only stay on this island and cannot go to Iran from the island. 🚕 We didn't book any accommodation or itinerary before going to the island, so we just had to find everything when we got there. After we got off the ship at Bandar Abbas, there was a taxi right outside the door. We negotiated 25,000 local currency to take us to several attractions on the island. (I personally felt ripped off, but 25,000 was not much money, so forget it) Attractions on the island: ⛰️ Vally of stars: Picture 1, I think it is the most beautiful place on the island! You must go! It's so shocking, a bit like Türkiye's Cappadocia Kia, but not exactly. You have to walk a distance inside the scenic spot, so remember to wear flat shoes. The point is there is no one, no one, no one! You can capture the feeling of interstellar travel by finding any high place. The thing I regret most is not bringing a drone. 🗻 Namakdan Cave: Picture 2 is actually a salt cave. We went there just for this place. When we got there, we found that the reality was actually quite different from the pictures on the Internet. It might be because too much time has passed, and there are more and more salt bodies, which have completely covered the colorful rocks, so the colorful cave has become white. But it is still quite shocking. You have to wear a headlamp before entering the cave. It feels like the Tomb Robbers' Chronicles. 🏜️ Chahkooh Canyon: It is a relatively large attraction on the island. You can meet tour groups from all over the world. Personally, I feel that it is not as beautiful as Xingxing Valley. If there are too many people, the experience is not very good. To see the good scenery, you have to go inside. When you walk to a very narrow valley and look up, you can see the Chahkooh Canyon. About accommodation: There are many popular homestays on the island, and the price is about US$40 a night. However, it is more than 60 kilometers away from the port, and transportation on the island is not very convenient, so it is not recommended to stay here. We temporarily found a hotel 2 kilometers away from the port. You can walk around the city on the island during the day, and $30 per room is not bad. 🛍️About entertainment: There is a very large shopping mall on the island, which has everything you need for eating, drinking and having fun. There is even a large entertainment center for bowling, billiards, and game consoles. There is also a floor full of places to eat delicious food, which makes you feel that this place is not very similar to Iran.
