Garni Pagan Temple, Armenia
Garni
pagan temple is on
the road to Geghard and both can be
comfortably seen on the same day. Halfway to
Garni however, take a few minutes to look at
the Charents Arch. The arch itself is not
what you stop for, but for the great view of
Ararat which it frames on a clear day. Truly
a Kodak moment. When you get to Garni, it
will remind you of a somewhat plain
Parthenon. It was built in the first century A.D.
by the Armenian King Tiridates with the
money he received after visiting Emperor
Nero in Rome. The temple was destroyed in
1679 in an earthquake, but was reconstructed
in Soviet times. |
