Angustus Labyrinthus is a complex of intersecting valleys or ridges near the Martian south pole (in the Mare Australe quadrangle), located at 81.68° S and 63.25° W.It was nicknamed the "Inca City" by NASA scientists due to its superficial resemblance to a ruined city. [1]
Planum Australe (Latin: "the southern plain") is the southern polar plain on Mars.It extends southward of roughly 75°S and is centered at The geology of this region was to be explored by the failed NASA mission Mars Polar Lander, which lost contact on entry into the Martian atmosphere.
This group of ridges extends from 270–100 E and 70–90 S, around the south pole of Mars. It sits under the Late Amazonian South Polar Layered Deposits (SPLD). The amount of these ridges is huge, one study studied seven different ridge systems which contained almost 4,000 ridges that had a total length 51,000 km. [ 51 ]

Atlantis basin is an eroded impact crater in the southern hemisphere of Mars, in the Phaethontis quadrangle, Sirenum Terrae region, centered at 177° West, 35° South. It was formed during the early Noachian period.
New research published Monday in the journal Nature Astronomy indicates there really is a buried reservoir of super-salty water near the south pole of the planet.
Residual north and south polar ice caps are shown at upper and lower right as they appear in early summer and at minimum size, respectively. Areography, also known as the geography of Mars, is a subfield of planetary science that entails the delineation and characterization of regions on Mars.
