Kecharis Monastery, Tsakhkadzor, Armenia Kecharis medieval monastery complex is located in the northwestern part of city Tsaghkadzor. It is noteworthy not only with architectural originality, but also with its interesting story. His formation lasted 220 years, with over 150 years of interruption. Such fate was due to the peculiarities of the historical period. The construction of the monastery began during the reign of the Bagratuni dynasty, and continued by the Pahlavuni dynasty. The first church in the area of Kecharis monastic complex, St. Gregory the Illuminator, was built in 995-1003, and then other sacred places were built. The Kecharis monastery includes three churches, St. Gregory the Illuminator with a domed hall, St. Nshan and St. Cathoghike churches, two chapels and a courtyard. A little further to the west, on the way to the forest there is another church – St Harutiun. Unlike similar monasteries of Armenia, Kecharis’ main structures form a straight corner on their own pillars. 60 minutes

In 874 the wife of the Syunik prince Vassak and the daughter of the king Ashot Bagratuni – Mariam built here two churches – St. Arakeloc and St. Astvatcatcin. They are rich in various wood-carved capitals, a aprt of which is kept in the Armenia State Museum of History and in the Art Gallery of St. Petersburg (Hermitage).

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR FAMILY AND FRIENDS TOUR!! We went as the itinerary stated. Our tour guide TIGRAN was very accommodating and expert all things Armenia! where to eat, exhange money, tours, place, basically everything. We weren’t on a rush everytime since when we go to the place for tours the tour guide he waits for us even for 1 or 2 more hours we can just call him if we have experienced enough. Jan Tours were very professional and hospitable since our airport transfer and car for a tour is aboard on a mercedes so its feels very luxurious and comfortable.
