The Monasteries of Haghpat and Sanahin are in the Lori province. These Byzantine monasteries were built during the Armenian Kiurikian Dynasty (10th – 13th century CE). They were important centres of learning and their buildings represent the acme of Armenian religious architecture, which blends element of Byzantine ecclesiastical features with traditional vernacular Caucasian style.
