Visited the Armenian Holy Savior Cathedral, also known as Church of the Saintly Sisters, and it was awesome. So much history, beauty, and amusement.

It’s also known as Vank Cathedral, which means “monastery” or “convent” in the Armenian language.

Great experience. I’m currently in the city of Rasht, Gilan Province, north of Iran. Getting some peace of mind and rest.
