Cathedral and Churches of Echmiatsin and the Archaeological Site of Zvartnots, Religious complex in Armenia
The Cathedral and Churches of Echmiatsin are central to the Armenian Apostolic Church.
Built between the 4th and 7th centuries, these structures symbolize the spread of Christianity in Armenia.
They collectively represent the unique Armenian cross-dome architectural style.
Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, they attract pilgrims and tourists from around the world.
The Zvartnots Cathedral, though in ruins, is a testament to early medieval Armenian architecture.
