O
Rýchle fakty: A deep pit below the monastery served as a prison for centuries, adding a mysterious aura to the site. The monastery offers stunning views of Mount Ararat, a symbol of Armenian heritage and legend.
Zaujímavosti: Legend says Gregory the Illuminator was imprisoned for 13 years in the pit, surviving through miraculous means before the king converted to Christianity. The site’s proximity to Mount Ararat provides breathtaking photo opportunities with the mountain towering majestically in the background.

Robil som tieto prehliadky v desiatkach miest a boli vrcholom takmer každej cesty. Ak navštívite Yerevan, Armenia, urobte to v prvý deň. Poďakujete mi neskôr.
