A wonderful historical monastery complex.
There are many different buildings.
There are several active churches, you can light a candle and pray.
There is a large tourist flow.
A stunningly beautiful place! A mountain road of amazing beauty leads to the monastery. I want to stop at every kilometer and look at everything around me. There is an atmosphere of peace in the monastery itself. A hundred-year-old oak tree grows nearby, which was burned down by lightning, but life appeared in it again - a small sprout. And nearby, in a cafe, they sell very tasty gata and serve fragrant tea.
A beautiful and ancient place.
It is best to go when everything is surrounded by greenery.
Perhaps the most delicious Armenian sweet, gata, is prepared next to the monastery. It is prepared with different fillings. Be sure to try it.
Also, there is a honey farm nearby where you can buy honey in honeycombs, in jars, honey wine and honey ice cream.
