Founded in the 10th century, it is renowned for its unique architectural style and historical significance. The monastery is particularly famous for its well-preserved frescoes that cover the walls and ceilings of the church, depicting scenes from the Bible, saints, and angels. These vibrant frescoes are a rare example of Armenian medieval art and make Akhtala one of the most important cultural landmarks in the region. The complex includes a main church, a bell tower, and several smaller buildings, all set against the backdrop of the scenic Debed Canyon.

Situated near the town of Alaverdi in the picturesque Debed River Gorge, Haghpat was founded in the 10th century and flourished as a center of learning and spirituality. The monastery complex consists of several buildings, including the main church, St. Nishan Church, a bell tower, and a refectory.
