She described Geghard, carved directly into the rock, as a place where the air remains steeped in a thousand years of prayer.Her personal favorites also included the pagan Temple of Garni, the Symphony of Stones natural monument, the Azat River Gorge, the medieval Matosavank Monastery, and Lake Parz, nestled within the dense forests of Dilijan National Park.
