The Kobayr monastery complex was built in the 12th-13th centuries. The Kobayr Monastery, which in Armenian means air - cave, and in Georgian - kob-cave, is located in the Lori region of Armenia, on the slope of the Debed Gorge. In the Middle Ages, the Kobayr monastery was an important cultural and educational center of Armenia. Today we will visit two unique masterpieces of Armenian architecture of the 10th-14th centuries, the monasteries of Sanahin and Haghpat, which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Literally the name Sanain in Armenian means /this monastery is older than the other,/ which probably means that this monastery is older than Haghpat. These two monasteries are very close to each other and can be easily seen from one to the other. Both are located on a rugged plateau, separated by a deep crack formed by a small river flowing into the Debed River. Haghpat Monastery was one of the largest religious, cultural and educational centers of medieval Armenia. Return to Yerevan.
