There is a great number of historical cemeteries of the Turkish-Islamic period within the provincial boundaries that have reached the present day. The historical cemeteries that have reached the present day include; İshak Paşa Palace Cemetery, Eski Bayezid City Cemetery, Ahmed-i Hani Cemetery, Seslitaş Village Cemetery in the district of Doğubayazıt; Taşkın, Köseler and Ziyaret village cemeteries in the district of Patnos; Ocakbaşı, Bintosun village cemeteries in the district of Tutak and the cemeteries in Toprakkale Village in the district of Eski Eleşkirt.
