Visits to historical monuments in the cities of Maku and Chaldoran, West Azarbaijan province, have increased fourfold during March 20-August.
Head of Maku and Chaldoran Cultural Heritage Department, Abbasi, cited renovation of historic places in the cities as well as mass media publicity as the main reasons behind the boom.
This church which is the graveyard of Saint Thaddaeus, was built during the 8th centery AD in Chaldoran village (near Maku) at the foot of a hill.
Black and white stones were applied in the construction of this church, but it was restored during the 13th century AD after it was destroyed as a result of an earthquake.
In various interiors and exteriors of the church there are relief exhibits which demonstrate religious meetings, the picture of the saints and the scenes of the historical tales of the holy book along with numerous decorative and ornamental designs, all with great worth and value from the artistic and archaeological point of view.
