What travelers say:

The Haghartsin monastery is located near the town of Dilijan. It can be said that the location of the monastery is very good. It is hidden in dense woods and walks along the winding road to the valley. There is a small parking lot next to the Haghartsin monastery. There are three churches in Haghartsin. Saint Astvatsatsin The main church was built in 1281, a tower-shaped building with a tall drum. Except to the west, all the walls have two triangular alcoves outside. The oldest is the Holy Grigor Church (11th century), with a domed tower above an octagonal barrel, and a nearby church is rectangular and built in the 12th century. The dome-shaped Stepanos chapel (1224 m), the structured canteen was built in 1248 by architect Minas, is a prominent representative of medieval Armenian architecture, its structure is bold, has a pair of square halls, the roof is cross arched. Unfortunately, it was originally a great historical monument and a world heritage site, but the Armenian church spent $2 million in 2010 to renovate, it looked very new, and there was no way to see too much shadow on the stone after the renovation. The monastery that travels through the millennium seems to be under a hundred years old, which also makes many people dissatisfied. Although it has lost the sense of ruin, you can also play in the Dilijan National Park when you come to Haghartsin Monastery. The scenery here is very good and it is a worthwhile trip.
