Daralayaz caravanserai

Selim caravanserai is a caravanserai at Selim Mountain, pass Alayaz area Keshishkend of Daralayaz town, the top of the village Agkand. Semicircular inscription on rock at the entrance door of the caravanserai prove that the caravanserai was built in 1329 by Abu Said Bahadur Khan, the ruler of the state of Elkhanids. If we add to this the fact that in Agkand village where the caravanserai was located only Azerbaijanis lived in this area until 1918, but the Armenians resettled and lived in the village (172 people, according to official statistics) in 1923-1925, and then it was impossible to deny the truth that the monument belongs to Azerbaijanis. But, unfortunately, Armenians deny the historical truth. After forcible withdrawal of Azerbaijani from these areas in 1988, the government of Armenia totally falsified the facts related to Selim caravanserai and presented it to world as a monument of the Armenian community.
