I was very impressed with the place, the grandiose temple! We went down to the dungeon where St. George the Enlightener lived, and found a blessing! My husband lit candles for the health of his family. A haze covered the sky, Mount Ararat was poorly visible. I recommend you to visit, after all, this is the cradle of the formation of Christianity.
Very beautiful. The Armenian-Turkish border and the foothills of Ararat are visible. Here you can go down to the dungeon where Gregory the Illuminator spent 13 years in prison
Nicely. It's just very sad. For the first time in Armenia, a parking attendant began to breed for money "fraternally". The border from the monastery is three or four hundred meters. The haze did not allow us to enjoy the greatness of Ararat.
It's a beautiful place. If the weather is good and clear, Mount Ararat is clearly visible. The territory of the monastery is not large at all, you can quickly look at it.
Beautiful and very beautiful, words cannot convey the full power of antiquity.
I advise everyone, as soon as you are in Armenia, to visit this castle fortress, whoever calls it. In general, I really love Armenia, but the price tags have gone up for everything, it's just creepy.
One of the most beautiful places in Armenia. The history of the adoption of the Christian faith began there. And there is a magnificent view of Mount Ararat.
To come to Armenia and not get into Horvirap means to miss a piece of human history. It is from this place that Christianity originates as the state religion, and all this against the background of the biblical Mount Ararat. It doesn't matter if a person is a believer or not, this place is a piece of human history, a must-visit!
