Harichavank Monastery
7th century monastery complex of Harichavank is situated on the western slope of Mount Aragats, on a roky cape. Not far from the main buildings there is a small chapel which is of great interest. The chapel is built on a piece of rock, which as a result of an earthquake split from the cape and the chapel is now towering over the canyon.
