Dear guest: how wrong you are.

I do understand something of why people keep claiming that Turks destroyed churches. They certainly did. But please get your facts right. I have been all through this building and it was a hamam or bath house from the start, that was clear to see. Not everything with a dome is a former church (I would guess that for stylistic reasons a low dome like this one would be contrary to Armenian style anyway, but you seem to claim authority, as I noticed elsewhere).

So: either inform, or shut up. Disinformation from your side (easy to spot) will be deleted from now on.

yes, this is one of many Armenian churches destroyed by turks.
