A Mountain Pass The traveller from Resht to Teheran passes through very varied scenery. Beginning with beautiful foresis of walnuts, planes, willow, and olives, he soon loses this wealth of ve^zetation as he ascends the Elburz, and once these mountains are crossed, the track lies chiefly through the desert, with its ranges of mountains away in the distance. A Caravanserai A specimen of one of the "hotels" of Persia. These caravanserais are built in the form of an open square. The rooms are situated round the quadrangle, while the courtyard is the resting-place of camels, mules, horses, and donkeys.
