The structure is a peripteral temple on a leveled base and was probably dedicated to the god Mihr. The entablature is supported by 24 Ionic columns. Unlike other Greco-Roman temples, it is made of basalt (Wikipedia).

The Hellenistic temple dates from the 1st century AD and stands as if on a pedestal high above the Azat Canyon. Also worth seeing are the excavations of the Roman baths.
