The next destination of the tour will be the Monastery Geghard, which was built in the 4th century. The name of the monastery originates from the spear of the Roman soldier who pierced the body of Jesus Christ.

The last destination is another famous monument of medieval Armenian architecture - Tatev Monastery, which was built in the 9th-13th centuries.
