Монастырь Бхено Нораванк
Bgheno-Noravank () is an 11th-century Armenian monastery in the province of Syunik in Armenia, 3km to the East of Bardzravan village, to the left of the road to Shurnukh, on a triangular promontory surrounded by wooded gorges. It now consists of a small church dating to 1062, located on a little wooded promontory, and ornately decorated with borders and biblical reliefs. The ruins of this church were rediscovered in the 1920s by Axel Bakunts, a well-known prose writer, during one of his wanderings as an agronomist.
