Garni Temple - Armenia

The Temple of Garni is the only standing building in Armenia from Greco-Roman colonnaded era. It is one of the best known places in Armenia for tourists to visit, and it is definitely worth it! The building is absolutely gorgeous 😍 It is located in central Armenia in the village of Garni and it is not far from Geghard Monastery and usually people visit both places the same day… Whenever me and my family were going to Geghard Monastery we were almost always also visiting the Garni temple. I absolutely love visiting Garni as I can see the history which is standing there since the 1st or 2nd century AD. IG: edgarmesropyan #bucketlistreboot #armenia #armeniantravel #temple #armenian

Pagan Temple of Garni

The Temple of Garni #foodie is located in the village of Garni in Kotayk Province, Armenia, and it was once a pagan temple dedicated to the Armenian sun god Mihr. Built in the middle of the 1st century CE, the Temple of Garni remarkably survived the destruction of pagan temples following Armenia's conversion to Christianity in the 4th century CE, and countless invasions and earthquakes until its collapse in 1679 CE. After continuous excavations in the late 19th and early 20th centuries CE, the Temple of Garni was reconstructed between 1969-1975 CE. Today, it is the only free-standing Greco-Roman structure in Armenia and seen by many as a potent symbol of Armenia's classical past as well as its deep historical ties to the civilizations of Greece and Rome.

Pagan Temple of Garni

Garni Temple was beautiful. With a greco roman architecture style, the temple was a place to worship the fire god. It has the oldest mosaic in the world right next to a hot spring bath. Our tour guide also drove us to a nearby mountain scape, which was amazing. Garni Temple is one of my favorite places. The Location of the Temple is magical. I recommend this place to everyone who wants to visit Armenia. It's not far from the city center. This is an incredible Pagan Temple which also served as the summer retreat of the ancient Armenian king. Today, it is thronged by tourists from all walks of life and is undoubtedly one of the three UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Armenia along with the Geghard Monastery.#nationalpark
