Dasht-e Kavir is the largest desert of Iran that extends from the southern slopes of Alborz to the central part of Iran. Its length is 800 km and the width is about 600 km, mostly covered with large swamps and is scattered on the edge of sand dunes and heights. Tens of millions of years ago, a salt lake surrounded this desert and surrounded a small territory that is now located in central Iran. After the water of this lake dried up, a layer of salt with a thickness of 6 to 7 km was formed in this area. Dasht-e Kavir is also considered one of the thermal poles of the earth. The air temperature sometimes reaches 50 degrees Celsius during the day and the temperature difference during the day and night is 70 degrees. The vegetation of this area is mostly of saline plants (halophyte).
