Breathtaking basalt columns in Iran

Let's watch breathtaking basalt columns in Iran. 

Columnar jointed volcanic rocks exist in many places on Earth, including in beautiful Iran. West Azarbaijan Province is home to stunning basalt columns.

Interlocking basalt columns as natural pillars are rare specimens in the world created due to stress as the lava cools. The lava contracts as it cools, forming cracks.

Spectacular display of the towering columns in Iran is a tourist magnet.
