The Khor Virap is a monastery located 30 km far from Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, and near the border with Turkey. A chapel was initially built in 642 AD at the site of Kirat Virap and over the centuries it was repeatedly rebuilt. This ashtonishing view is potentiated by the Great Ararat Mount (one of the 2 volcanic cones) with an elevation of 5,137 meters and 40 km in diameter the whole Ararat massif. One sensational place more on the travelling wish list to visit at least Once in a Life Time!!
