Tatevi Anapat, 17th-century monastery in Syunik Province, Armenia.

The monastery complex stands on a basalt plateau along the Vorotan river valley, featuring rectangular walls with towers and traditional Armenian architecture.

Catholicos Hakob IV Jughayetsi ordered the construction of Tatevi Anapat in the 1660s after an earthquake destroyed the nearby Harants Hermitage of Halidzor.

The monastery served as a religious center where monks practiced spirituality, education, and preserved Armenian cultural traditions through centuries.

Visitors can reach Tatevi Anapat through the village of Tatev, located at coordinates 39.387665 latitude and 46.260806 longitude in southeastern Armenia.

The monastery includes a distinctive table-shaped structure on its southern side, complementing the main religious buildings within the complex.
