Dogubayazit

            Today Doğubeyazıt is a small town with a predominantly Kurdish population[citation needed] serving an impoverished rural area on a high altitude, dry plain. 
Places of Intereses:
- Mount Ararat - 15 km from Doğubeyazıt, and the best views of the mountain are from here.
- The second-largest meteor crater in the world, just on the Iranian border about 35 km east of the town. (39.35354°N 43.87150°E). (although as this is on the (militarised) border it is difficult to visit).
- On a hill to the south of town, there is the Ishak Pasha Palace, completed in 1784.
- The castle and mosque of Old Beyazit, first built by the Urartu but which bear traces of many civilisations.
- The "Noah's Ark National Park" including the "Durupinar" site is up in the hills east of town and south of the main highway.
- Balık Gölü - a lake in a lava bed, 60 km from Doğubeyazıt, near Taşlıçay.
- The Ice Cave - on the side of Little Ararat near the village of Hallaç.
- The ruins of the 900BC Urartu temple and palace on the hill of Giriktepe.
- The ancient Armenian cemetery.
