Echmiadzin

Hi everyone, and sorry for not posting anything for a while. I must say, we were a bit busy.

Here are a few pics of Armenia's main church. This here is the Main Cathedral, around it are located the Seminary and the residence of Catholicos, the head of Armenian Church, museums, a large park and many other things.


The church is richly decorated from inside and outside and is very beautiful. I like to think of people of faith who put so much effort into it and did their best for God back in 13th century. Here is a fragment of the stone lace on the outside. Isn't it amazing?
