There is also a Roman Catholic colony and church.

The latter stands in a large garden, celebrated for its quinces and apricots.

Lastly, the English Church Missionary Society have an establishment here under the direction of the Rev.Dr.Bruce, whose good deeds during the famine are not likely to be forgotten by the people of Ispahan and Djulfa, whatever their creed or religion.

The trade of Djulfa is insignificant, although there is a large amount of wine and arak manufactured there, and sold "under the rose" to the Ispahanis.

The production of the juice of the grape is somewhat primitive.
