Sharafkhaneh (Persian: شرفخانه; also Romanized as Sharafkhāneh, Sharifkhane, Sharifkhaneh, and Sheraf-Khane; also known as Bandar-e Sharafkhāneh)[2] is a city in the Central District of Shabestar County, East Azerbaijan Province, Iran. Sharafkhaneh is situated on Lake Urmia. At the 2016 census, its population was 4,244, in 1,446 families.[3]
"Sharafkhaneh" used to be one of the heavily travelled touristic villages. By the lake becoming dry, the value of the surrounding lands were reduced and created great financial problems for families.
