Cultural heritage experts on standby in the wake of the Hormozgan earthquake

TEHRAN – Cultural heritage experts are standing by in the wake of the powerful 6.4-magnitude earthquake that rocked Finn province in southern Hormozgan province on Sunday.

Provincial Tourism Chief Sohrab Banavand announced on Monday that due to the severity of the earthquake and the importance of the historical buildings, teams of experts have been sent to the area to inspect any potential damage to the province’s historical sites.

So far, the official added, there were no reports of damage to the historical monuments.

Two people were confirmed killed and three others injured, after the earthquake occurred at a depth of 15 kilometers and was felt by people in the neighboring province of Kerman and Qeshm island in the Persian Gulf.

In rural Vienne, a number of homes were damaged. There were also reports of power and communications outages in some parts of Hormozgan.

According to regional media, the earthquake was so powerful that a 2.3-magnitude earthquake could be felt across the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.

Hormozgan Province, known as the Province of the Islands, is located on the northern shores of the Persian Gulf. It embraces scenic islands, among which Kish, Hormuz, Hengham and Qeshm are the most beautiful and most important tourist destinations in southern Iran.

Over the past two decades, the atoll of Kish has become a beach resort where visitors can swim, shop and savor a relaxed and relatively liberal local lifestyle. It is home to free trade zone status, with ever-growing hotels, shopping malls, condominiums and retail complexes.

Mostly arid and hilly, Hormuz lies eight kilometers from the coast on the Strait of Hormuz, which attracts many tourists with its colorful mountains, silver sandy beaches, and locals.

Hengham Island has scenic rocky beaches, peaceful sunsets and kind indigenous people, which can attract travelers who enjoy a relaxing trip by spending time on this peaceful island.

Qeshm Island is a paradise for eco-tourists as it has large-scale attractions such as the forests of Harat Al Bahariya and about 60 villages that are mostly spread across its rocky coastline. The island also features geologically attractive valleys, hills, caves and gorges, most of which are protected as part of the UNESCO-branded Qeshm Island Geopark, itself a haven for nature lovers.
