格加尔德修道院印象
-
Great place to visit. It's location in the end of a small valley gives a beautiful scenery to the monastery. The holes in the mountain side were indeed monks rooms. Don't forget to visit this place.

One can well understand why the monks set up here. The peace reverberates throughout this holy site. An interesting piece of Armenian culture and history

This is a must see should you find yourself in Yerevan. Beautiful spaces engraved in stone, great light-play, beautiful views and green anywhere you can see. The monastery is decently signposted with information provided in English as well, you can get loads of great pictures in here and the general feel of the place is very positive no matter what the weather is.

The Monastery of Geghard is breathtaking! We visited in mid-January, early in the morning. It had dusted snow the night earlier. Since we were off season, our group of 6 people had the entire monastery to ourselves. We used the guide Gayane Ghazaryan from "Armen Tour Company" and the total price was 65,000 dram for driver + guide to see Geghard and Garni, so only about 11,000 dram ($23 US) each. I know you can get to Geghard cheaper by taxi, but Gayane was a superb guide and well worth the money to have her interpretation of the site. Geghard is a medieval monastery with parts of it dating to the 4th century. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. On the morning we visited it was cold, snowy, and overwhelmingly beautiful and peaceful. The main chapel is very interesting, but even more interesting are the older antechambers that have been carved into the solid rock cliff side. An ancient natural freshwater spring emerges from one of the chambers, and with no other tourists around, we stool listening to the gentle babbling for quite some time. The city of Yerevan suffers from bad air quality, especially in the winter. However, the Monastery of Geghard it high enough in elevation that you will emerge above the smog layer to see blue skies, and crystal clear views, even in the winter. The grounds were immaculately maintained with absolutely no trash to be found. I did use the toilet (200 dram fee) and it was the cleanest toilet I've seen in Armenia. This place is quite special and I highly, highly recommend a visit during winter off-season. Thanks for reading, and happy-touring.

The sight itself is as wonderful as everyone describes, including in winter (it was snowing and very atmospheric when we visited), but I wanted to comment on transport in the off season. In winter there are few group day tours, but catching a taxi from Yerevan is not too expensive (and much less than paying for a driver from a tour service/travel company). The taxi meter charges hardly anything for waiting time. Altogether, two people to Garni and Geghard, taking our time in both places, cost 10,000AMD. Just check, in advance, that the driver is using the meter.

The monastery of Geghard contains a number of churches and tombs, most of them cut into the rock, which illustrate the very peak of Armenian medieval architecture. The complex of medieval buildings is set into a landscape of great natural beauty, surrounded by towering cliffs at the entrance to the Azat Valley. The monastry is part of UNESCOs heritage.

There are no words to say something negative, reaky amazing place, history and also around the monastery was facinating
-
This is very special place in Armenia where you have a monastery that is carved into a mountain and also where the the tip of the spear which Jesus was stabbed has been kept here. Great place to visit with great history to learn.

The Monastery of Geghard was a marvelous experience. Although the main part was built in the13th Century it was founded bt Gregory the Iluminator during the 4th. This UNESCO world site is a place of worship dug into a cave of rock filled with religious engravings . We had an incredible gregorian chant performed inside and the acoustucs was breathtaking.. Singing angels in heaven! My tears came to my eyes...hope you can see them perform!

这个被联合国教科文组织授予世界文化遗产的地方实在是有太多可看的了。它位于一个超美的峡谷中,正对着悬崖,有着强化墙壁以及位于山腰的房间。这个教堂群有很多祭坛、房间、一个圣泉、很多雕刻品及khachkars。凿出的小房间的地方,而左手边那个楼梯将你带到一条刻有khachkars的通道上。在这条通道的尽头时一个大房间,里面放着很多塔器及雕刻品,右边的角落还有个洞, 你可以从那里窥探下面房间的情况,同时还可以在那拍点照片。去这个上面的房间的最大理由就是它那令人无法置信的音响效果。就算你没有留意到房间的音响效果这回事,只要让一个人在这个房间唱唱歌,那种犹如聆听合唱团的感觉一定也会让你感到无比震惊。去那里,探索一下,唱唱歌,来个徒步游,吃个野餐,再在路上看看Garni,所有这些都一定会让你无法忘怀。从埃里温到那只要一个小时哦。
