This region, used as a salt source since the Median, Persian, and Urartian periods, has gradually become a natural healing center contributing to human health. Salt caves are not only production areas but also serve as a natural treatment area for asthma patients.

In the 15th century, the Spanish ambassador Ruy González de Clavijo, who visited the region, included the following statements about the use of Tuzluca salt in his travelogue:

"The mountain was covered with stones and salt rocks. People from the surrounding villages used to take salt from here and use it in their meals."
