Qara kilisa or Black church It's the best maintained of all Iran's medieval churches.
It also known as Kalisa-ye Tadi (Church of St Thaddaeus) for St Thaddaeus (aka Tatavoos) who supposedly founded a church here in AD 43. Some say he came with apostle St Bartholomew, others that he was St Bartholomew. Whatever the case, Thaddaeus preaching proved a little too successful and the jealous Armenian king reacted by killing him and massacring his 3000 converts in AD 66. In a curious twist, Armenia later became the world's first Christian nation (AD 301). Thaddaeus memory was revived with a chapel built here at his supposed grave in AD 371. Mostly rebuilt after an earthquake, the smaller black-and-white-striped chapel section dates from 1319-29. The church was much restored and enlarged in 1810 when the main beige-white stone section was added. This is richly carved with saints, angels, kings and crosses, best observed from the chunky fortress-style walls that surround the church site.
The only Christian services are held during a brilliant thready summer pilgrimage; dates vary and are announced shortly beforehand through the Armenian Prelacy office.I can book this pilgrimage for you.

Imagine you are walking through a stream and your right foot is in the hot water and your left foot is in cold water!! Then you are in Morteza-Ali Bath (Morteza-Ali Spring) in Tabas. Morteza-Ali spring consisted of hot and cold-water springs joining Sardar river, flowing in a canyon near Tabas. You have about 5km walking ahead through water before reaching King Abbas Arch (a 400-year old dam) which is almost end of the route. On the way, there are a number of springs, some hot and some cold. Difference between mineral component of these springs makes them not being fully mixed and separable for almost 300m in the riverbed. This significant feature alongside with the characteristic morphology of the canyon’s walls itself makes this place worth to visit.

Despite being considered the biggest Shiite country in the world by 99.38% Muslim in the country mostly Shiite and ruling an Islamic regime, it is very important to understand that Iran certainly is NOT an Arabic country and Iranians are not Arabs.
In fact, Shia sect has become the official religion of the country since 1501 AD mostly to unify the country. But Islamic rules were not part of the governmental rules until the Islamic Revolution in 1979 that Iran became an Islamic country with Islamic rules in all aspects including economics, politics, and customs. But even then because of the rooted and rich culture in Iran, Iran did NOT become like other Islamic countries.
Part of these rules is about women appearance in the community.
Since 1979, HIJAB became mandatory for females older than 9 year-old. But the shape of HIJAB from the first days of being obligation until now has been changed dramatically so that many foreigners whom consider Iran to be similar to Arab countries, surprise at seeing women appearance in the streets. (Figure 1)
Iranian customs are a combination of ancient and Islamic traditions. This includes Iranian traditional celebrations like Nowruz, Yalda, Chaharshanbeh Souri, and Islamic rituals like Ashura, Qadr Nights, etc.
Among all of Iranian social behaviors, kindness, sensitivity, decency, patience, generosity, and hospitality, devoted and patriot are remarkable.
