What To Expect

Monastery of Sanahin

Sanahin Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is renowned for its stunning medieval architecture and rich historical significance. The monasteries of Haghpat and Sanahin are closely connected, and located within 20 minutes of drive from each other. Legend says that both monasteries were built by father and son, with Sanahin having been built earlier by the father. The name says it all: Sanahin literally means “this is older than the other”.

Haghpat Monastery

The major church in Haghpat Complex – St. Nshan or the Holy Cross – was built in 976, and the main church in the Sanahin Complex was built some 30 years earlier. Tourists visiting Haghpat can immerse themselves in the serene atmosphere and enjoy breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape.

The trip was very well organized and totally worth it. The driver was very nice and professional, spoke Russian and English, willing to stop at places we liked to take pictures. The sights were amazing.
