Aladagh Lar, The city of Tabriz is located in the northwestern corner of Iran and is somewhat different from other parts of Iran due to this geographical location. The first and most obvious difference can be seen in the local language of the people who speak Azeri Turkish and the local people are not interested in using Persian.
Another factor that makes Tabriz unique is its geography. Tabriz is located in the province of East Azerbaijan and as a result has a cooler climate and its diverse topography includes mountains, dormant volcanoes and glacial lakes. This cultural and geographical difference is evident from the same road from the center of Iran to Tabriz. After crossing Zanjan, there are 8 interesting mountain ranges in red, green, orange and yellow. This work of art, created by Mother Nature, is called the colorful mountains of Aladag Lar and is one of the sights of East Azerbaijan province.
The reason for the colors of Aladagh Lar Mountains
These colorful mountains are found only in a few places in the world, such as the Janki Geopark in China and the Asangit Mountains in Peru. The existence of these mountains in China is attributed to millions of years of compaction and oxidation of minerals and sandstones. Probably the same thing happened in other similar cases in the world and turned these amazing mountains into a big cake with colored layers. Many Iranian and foreign tourists are unaware of the existence of such attractions, although photography enthusiasts and visitors flock to Tabriz to see these beautiful mountains; Because Aladagh Lar mountains, which are known as rainbow mountains, are located 25 km northeast of Tabriz.
The best place to stop and set up a picnic is when you walk, you feel like you have gone to another planet and you are walking on Mars. Watching these sights while hiking, taking photos and videos and exploring the nearby secret villages can make a different trip for you. Sometimes there are waterways between these mountains and the beautiful reflection of these mountains in the water puts one of the most amazing images of nature in front of you. The existence of villages around these mountains has given them a more beautiful face, and it is interesting to know that the houses of these villages are as colorful as the soil of these mountains.
Aladaghlar clay mountains and hills are colorful mountains in brown, green, red, yellow, orange and white, which create a spectacular view when it rains and the clay of these mountains gets wet. This wonder of creation begins near the middle and continues to the city of Ahar to Tabriz.
You can visit the rainbow mountains all year round. Of course, you will encounter special effects at any time; Because these mountains have a special color in the sun, and in autumn and winter with rain and snow, you will see a different picture.
