The castle rises atop steep cliffs beside the eponymous Hoşap Stream. Its west-facing entrance and original gate have survived intact to the present day. Above the gate are Persian construction inscriptions and lion relief carvings. Traces of the past can be seen in the old bathhouse, mosque, madrasa, fountain, water cistern, dungeon, and rooms inside the fortress. Located 40 km east of Çavuştepe, it was built in 1643 by Sarı Süleyman, Bey of the Mahmudis under Ottoman rule. NEARBY MUSEUMS VAN ÇAVUŞTEPE CASTLE VAN CASTLE VAN MUSEUM VAN AKDAMAR MEMORIAL MUSEUM
