Turkey's Culture and Tourism Affairs Ministry has decided to continue
the renovation of Akhtamar Island of Van. The ministry is going to
illuminate the island.
The renovation program intends greening the territory of the island
and building an illumination system which will give an opportunity
to visit the island at night too. The program will be implemented in
the summer months. During this period though, the church will be open
for visitors.
Zaman daily reminds that Akhtamar St. Cross Church was reconstructed
in 2007 to show Ankara's endeavor to improve relations with Armenia.
