Heading towards Garni and the symphony of stones, do not forget to visit the Geghard Monastery. This place is surrounded by magnificent natural views, as well as covered with many legends. You can find out the historical and cultural part from the guide or on the Internet. My friend told me another interesting legend. There is a rock at the entrance to the monastery, on the left side. There are several recesses in it. If you make a wish and get into a niche with one of the stones lying at the foot of the cliff, so that the stone remains there, then the wish will definitely come true. The main thing is that the desire should be completely earthly and sincere. And if you go through the whole monastery, go out the gate, cross the bridge, then you will find yourself at the cave. According to legend, if you bring stones of different sizes with you, put a pyramid in the arch of this cave, pray and ask the Lord for help, he will definitely help. The higher and stronger the pyramid, and the more sincere the desire, the more likely the request will be fulfilled. I don't know about the others, but the Lord didn't refuse me one request. The main thing is to believe...

An impressive place. There are almost no people in December. Be sure to go up to the second level to the cave with amazing acoustics. And sing something, even if you don't really know how🤌🏻 And be sure to go behind the monastery to the picturesque bridge over the mountain stream. The children took care of all the Gigard 's cats 😂 There are a lot of them there!

It is quite possible to walk from the bus stop 3 km away. There is a beautiful view of the mountains and cliffs around the temple. The temple is quite interesting, there are two levels, you can go inside and get some water. The main building has been restored, the original parts are embedded in the rocks.
