  1. Mount Damāvand (Persian: دماوند‎‎, a potentially active volcano, is a stratovolcano

    which is the highest peak in Iran and the Middle East as well as the highest volcano

    in Asia (the Kunlun Volcanic Group in Tibet has a higher elevation than Damāvand,

    but are not considered to be volcanic mountains) It has a special place in Persian

    mythology and folklore. This peak is located in the middle of the Alborz range, The
