Hormuz is a special place. This island has something magical. There is a special energy that comes from the soil, from the rocks, the air and the water. This energy will heal your body and your soul. Trust me, you will see in a few days
An Island in the Persian Gulf famous for its natural beauties and its surreal landscape, Hormuz is made up of incredible rock formations and layers of volcanic material that gives the soil a very particular red colour. It’s a very unique place in the world and the colourful red soil, which is very rare, is considered a cultural heritage. Local people believe that the soil has special healing properties and due to its edibility, it is also used to bake fish and bread. The Island is populated mostly by fisherman, as fishing is the main source of income across the Persian Gulf islands. Local people belong to an ethnic group from the southern coast of Iran called Bandari, which means ‘people of the port’. Bandari women wear traditional colourful clothes and a boregheh which is a special mask that covers their face and adds a mysterious look. This mask became part of their traditional costume and they have been wearing it for centuries. It has religious meaning, but it is also used to protect their skin from the strong sun that hits the region. Depending on the shape and colour of the masks, local people can recognize from which ethnic groups women belong to.
