Nestled in the picturesque Mazandaran province of northern Iran, Badab Surt is a geological marvel that transports visitors to a surreal otherworldly landscape.
Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2010, Badab Surt is renowned for its cascading travertine terraces, vibrant colors, and unique formations. In this photo essay, we embark on a visual journey to capture the enchanting beauty of this natural wonder.
The Geological Wonder
Badab Surt's travertine terraces are the result of centuries-long mineral deposition from the interaction of carbon dioxide-rich spring water with the underlying limestone.
As water flows over the rock, it dissolves calcium carbonate, which is then deposited as layers of travertine, creating the distinctive stepped formations. The vibrant orange, yellow, and white colors are caused by iron oxide and other minerals in the water.
