Itinerary
Kaptavank monastery is a 12th-century monastery located 5 kilometers from the village called Chinchin. Kaptavank used to be a monastic complex in the past, but now only one church can be seen. It was once fenced and surrounded by an old settlement and an ancient cemetery is located on the east part of the church.
Ghuzan Stone is a massive rock of about 200 meters, located not far from the monastery Kaptavank. It is a gorgeous place hidden in the heart of the Dilijan forests.
