Originally founded on the site of a vision where St. Gregory saw Christ descend to strike the ground with a golden hammer, the name "Etchmiadzin" translates to "the descent of the Only-Begotten". The current structure is a 4th-century foundation, heavily restored and expanded in the 17th century with a distinctive 3-tiered bell tower and frescoed interior.

It is considered the "Vatican" of the Armenian Church and a primary pilgrimage site.

The Cathedral houses sacred relics, including the Holy Lance (Geghard), the Right Hand of St. Gregory the Illuminator, and pieces of Noah's Ark.

Тhe magnificent Zvartnots Temple, which mean “Temple of Vigil Forces”, was built in the VII century. The temple was built for 20 years.
