 Hello, 

Robin, the receptionist at the Yerevan Delux Hotel, made what turned out to be an excellent suggestion.

Since my plan was to drive south from Yerevan, Robin recommended I visit the Noravank Monastery.

The Monastery sits high in the mountains but getting there was the best part of the trip.   Off the main highway, the drive took me through a deep and colorful valley at the base of a defile – a long narrow passage in the rocks.
