Inside is a UN building. About 400 meters away, six apartments were assigned to the Turkish Armed Forces to build a military house.
Entry to the interior is strictly prohibited, except for members of the Turkish Armed Forces and students staying in the dormitory next to the army house. Foreign tourists who want to see the ghost town cannot go beyond the Maraş Icon Church. However, since 2016, tourists are prohibited from entering the church. With the exception of those with a military card, those who stay in dormitories and registered taxis, civil vehicles or pedestrians are not allowed to enter the Closed Area of Maras.
