This is known as the Asteroid belt. Its mainly smaller bodies, but there are a few big asteroids in there also. The biggest object there is known as Ceres. Its about 1000km in diameter, and now classed as a dwarf planet.
The revolution of asteroids in the asteroid belt is typically between 2 to 6 years, depending on the specific asteroid's distance from the Sun and its orbital speed. The average distance of the asteroid belt from the Sun is about 2.2 to 3.3 astronomical units (AU), with one AU being the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Mars' average distance from the sun is greater than Earth's average distance, and less than the average distance of most of the members of the asteroid belt. So, the answer is YES.
The Asteroid belt lies between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter at an average distance between 186 million miles and 300 million miles, (300 million and 600 million kilometers). The distance from the Sun to the Earth is 93 million miles sometimes referred to as an Astronomical Unit, (AU). The Asteroid Belt is between 2.7 and 4.0 au's from the sun along the ecliptic.
The main asteroid belt is actually called the asteroid belt - pretty dull really.
The distance from the Sun to the main asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter, varies between 2.2 and 3.2 astronomical units (AU). An astronomical unit is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, approximately 93 million miles or 150 million kilometers.

The asteroid belt is located 300-600x106km (or 2-4AU) away from the sun.

The asteroid belt
The distance from the Sun to the main asteroid belt, located between Mars and Jupiter, varies between 2.2 and 3.2 astronomical units (AU). An astronomical unit is the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, approximately 93 million miles or 150 million kilometers.
Asteroids are found orbiting the Sun in between Jupiter and Mars. So, the answer is "the Asteroid Belt".
It's called the Asteroid belt. See the related link for more informtion.
Mercury is not a part of the asteroid belt. The asteroid belt is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Mercury is far closer to the sun.
Actually there are an place of Asteroids. Sun Mercury Venus Earth Mars ASTEROID Belt. So why I capitalized the word ASTEROID on ASTEROID Belt. Because this Belt is full of Asteroids
An asteroid is a small rocky body that orbits the sun, while an asteroid belt is a region in our solar system located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter where many asteroids are found. The asteroid belt is like a "belt" of smaller objects orbiting the sun, with the largest asteroid being Ceres.
