Kal- e Jeni (canyon of Jinn) is an extremely weird natural attraction
located in Azmighan village, around Tabas city in the southern Khorasan
province. This silent and lonely canyon is formed by water and wind erosion and
shows stunning natural forms. These surreal landscapes and the mysterious sound
created when the wind blows through the canyon have led to this belief that this canyon
is the territory of Jinn and anyone who steps through this valley alone might
be captured by them!

Some small rooms called "Gabr" are carved in the walls of the
canyon. Nobody has ever found out what exactly these small rooms in the middle of this never land were used for. Some historians believe that Gabrs were carved by the
Zoroastrians during Sassanid era and were used for Chelleh, which is the spiritual
practice of silence and praying! There are some tunnels that might have been the connection between the Gabrs.

Kal- e Jeni is still unexplored by many of the travelers and many
adventurers don’t even know that such a wonderful attraction exists on earth.
The dense palm groves, the scenic desert with hundreds of and dunes and the
breathtaking "Golshan Garden of Tabas" are other attractions around the mysterious Kal-e Jeni. Uppersia suggests this area and its unique attractions as one of the
perfect winter destinations in Iran.
