The Gulustan Mausoleum (Azerbaijani: Gülüstan türbəsi), also known as the Dasht ("fields") Mausoleum, and the Vardut (Armenian for "roses") Mausoleum after the site's original name, is a medieval sepulchral monument in Azerbaijan's Nakhchivan region. The settlement of Vardut was destroyed when its Armenian population, like that of nearby Jugha, was forcefully deported to Isfahan in 1605. The mausoleums of Nakhichevan were nominated for List of World Heritage Sites, UNESCO in 1998 — president of Azerbaijan Committee of ICOMOS—International Council on Monuments and Sites.
