Etchmiadzin-Vagharschapat (Armenia) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Etchmiadzin-Vagharschapat in Armenia.
The village of Etchmiadzin is the religious centre of Armenia. At the entrance to the village is Hripsime Church. Here the nun Hripsime died a martyrs‘ death. She fled with a group of nuns to Armenia from Roman Emperor, Diocletian. The Armenian king, Trdat saw the beautiful Hripsime, instantly fell in love with her, and wanted her as his wife. But the deeply religious young Christian woman rejected the pagan king and he therefore had thirty five nuns tortured and killed. Surrounded by an old cemetery is another domed basilica, that of Gajane Church that dates back to the seventh century. A small crypt was built for the tomb of Abbess Gajane who was executed together with the nun, Hripsime. In 630 A.D., Catholicos Jezr ordered the building of Gajane Church, the fine wall paintings and splendid religious stonemasonry of which make it a cultural treasure. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries the interiors were redesigned by the Hovnatanjan Family of artists. Thus was created one of the few coloured churches in Armenia. The sacristy became the church museum with the ‘holy lance head’ of Roman soldier, Longinus, crosses and the famous right hands of the Catholicoi. Magnificent liturgical robes recall the importance of Etchmiadzin as being the religious centre of Armenia.

Khor Virap - The most popular destinations in Armenia
The Khor Virap is an Armenian monastery located in the Ararat plain in Armenia, near the closed border with Turkey. The monastery was host to a theological seminary and was the residence of Armenian Catholicos.
Khor Virap's notability as a monastery and pilgrimage site is attributed to the fact that Gregory the Illuminator was initially imprisoned here for 13 years by King Tiridates III of Armenia. Saint Gregory subsequently became the king's religious mentor, and they led the proselytizing activity in the country. In the year 301, Armenia was the first country in the world to be declared a Christian nation. A chapel was initially built in 642 at the site of Khor Virap by Nerses III the Builder as a mark of veneration to Saint Gregory. Over the centuries, it was repeatedly rebuilt. In 1662, the larger chapel known as the St. Astvatsatsin (Holy Mother of God) was built around the ruins of the old chapel, the monastery, the refectory and the cells of the monks. Now, regular church services are held in this church. It is one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in Armenia.
