Saint.Stephanous Church,
More details will come later of how I received this postcard .There is a case of received, lost and found.
A nice young person from Tabriz in Iran helped me get this card with nine other cards.
Here are details of this place.
The St. Stepanos Monastery (Maghartavank) is an Armenian monastery about 15 km northwest of Jolfa city, East Azarbaijan Province northeast Iran. It is situated in a deep canyon along the Arax river on the Iranian side of the border between Azerbaijan and Iran. It was built in the 9th century and rebuilt in the Safavid era after several earthquakes damaged it.

Here is the link.
