@wingsofarmenia2: Hovhanavank Monastery is a medieval Armenian monastery located near the village of Ohanavan, on the edge of the Kasagh River gorge in Armenia’s Aragatsotn Province. The monastery was mainly built between the 12th and 13th centuries and is famous for its beautiful Armenian architecture, carved stone decorations, and dramatic location above the canyon. The main church is dedicated to Saint John the Baptist (Hovhannes in Armenian), which is why the monastery is called Hovhanavank. One of its most impressive features is the large gavit (narthex), known for its detailed ceiling and ancient inscriptions. The monastery also offers stunning panoramic views of the surrounding landscape and Mount Aragats area.#church #armenia#discoverarmenia #hovhanavanq #christianity
