It's a wonder how this pagan temple is still standing and even after The Yerevan Earthquake of 1679 the site was rebuilt. One theory is that it was a tomb, as opposed to a temple, allowing it to stand under various occupations throughout the centuries. 'The blue and the dim and the dark cloths Of night and light and the half light' as written by W.B Yeats could easily be the poetic piece behind this very spot. #views #architecture #history #free
