INTRODUCTION :
Home
Two dudes who live in the different countries  have desided to create a webpage in memory their friends of childhood. The place where they had lived and grown was Hanlar*. Since 1976 all of us left for other places to get an education and the new life benefits . Then the very grief events had happened in that region. I am not sure if couple of our mates still live there. Of course, Hanlar 2004 is not the same like Hanlar of 60th-70th. Our goal is not to make a promotion for the travel agencies to visit West Azerbajan. We'd like that  Hanlar2004 website was a piece of a virtual land where we can communicate with each other.Thank you.

THE PLACE WHERE WE HAD LIVED
1988 (Rus)
Hanlar, then called Helenendorf, was founded by German settlers brought in by Tsar Alexander in the 19th century. The Germans were deported to central Asia by Stalin, but the place still reflects some of their presence, in the tree lined streets, the wooden houses and the church (now converted to a school). There is the usual history museum, a music school and a cinema as well. You can also visit a bridge that predates Xanlar by seven centuries.
Located south of Ganca, in an agricultural area, around Xanlar there are forests, orchards,
mountains and the seven scenic 'Tears of Kapaz' lakes. Since the cease fire line is rather close, access to some areas may be limited by the military.
There is a nice tea place, and you can stay at the hotel Koroglu, located in front of the post office. The hotel, built mostly in wood, is more charming than comfortable.
