West Azerbaijan, in Iran’s north-west corner, borders Turkey and Iraq and has a mix of Azeri, Kurdish and Armenian communities. The capital Urmia sits near the shrinking Lake Urmia, while the remote Takht-e Soleyman is a UNESCO-listed Zoroastrian fire temple complex around a crater lake.The ancient Armenian church of St. Thaddeus Monastery near Maku draws thousands each July, and the spectacular rock-hugging Maku town is famed for its cliffs. West Azerbaijan tour packages suit explorers who like history and landscape. Summer is the best season.
