Garni Temple

The temple of Garni is located 26 km from Yerevan in Armenia, which was the first Christian country in the world. In fact, the Armenians support the theory that the remains of Noah's ark rest on Mount Ararat. The temple of Garni is one of the few pagan temples in Armenia that remains and it is thanks to its location amongst the mountains that it survived the collapse of the pagan temples. The Hellenistic style temple takes you back in time and it really is a jaw-dropping experience.
