The Valley of the Stars, known as the Passage of Ghosts, is located 5 km south of the coast of Qeshm Island and is definitely one of the scary and mysterious places in Iran. This beautiful valley is one of the best places for astronomers and geologists.
But the locals are not satisfied only with the beauty of this place, but they believe that a star has fallen on the ground in this place and the earth of this valley has made a strange shape. Since then, supernatural forces and even extraterrestrials have been coming and going in this area[3]!
