Holidays in Armenia Day 4 (part 2)

Hey Gentle Readers.

Lets continue our tour.

After we left the winery we headed back into the mountains and we drove through some of the most spectacular scenery I hsd ever seen. Our destination was Novorank monastary.


Novarank monastary had a very scary set of steps.


Once again though we were totally knocked out by just how beautiful these buildings are.

After the monastary we drove through some very deep canyons with steep sides to get to where we had lunch with some ducks.






After lunch Lena was getting very excited because she thought we were going to an observatory. We were, but it was a stone circle from Armenia's neolithic period.
Instead of telescopes it was holes carved in stone.
It was very impressive though but the weather was beginning to get cold and the wind cut through us.




This was our last stop of a long and tiring day and we headed to our hotel in Goris  with tired feet and inspired hearts and minds.
