Haghpat monastery complex was founded in the X century.
"The monastery has a complex plan. It consists of several buildings, some of which are connected by covered galleries like this one, called "The Savior's Passage", which connects the library depository and the St. N'shan church. It was also used as the monastery academy."
The gallery extends around the east end of the church and opens into the courtyard with a view to the mountains and village in the distance.

The Church of the Savior On the Spilled Blood derives its terrible name from the murder of Tsar Alexander I whose death occured under the stones where this church was built. It houses some of the most spectacular mosaics of any church on the planet, which is why I have posted all my photos of these masterpieces. This is religious art at its peak of perfection.

Anyone see the Twilight movie trailor? I saw it when I went to see the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2 with my PIC and lets just say some people behind us asked me if I needed my inhaler. =]
I actually was surprised that I hadn't done this scene yet!

The Metropolitan Cathedral of the Holy Savior (Catedral Metropolitana de San Salvador) is the principal church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of San Salvador and the seat of the Archbishop of San Salvador. The church was twice visited by Pope John Paul II who said that the cathedral was "intimately allied with the joys and hopes of the Salvadoran people."[1] During his visits in 1983 and 1996, the Pope knelt and prayed before the Tomb of Archbishop Óscar Romero, assassinated in 1980, whose tomb here is a major pilgrim draw.
[edit] History
The Cathedral site is the place where the old Temple of Santo Domingo (St. Dominic) once stood. The Cathedral stands on the northern side of Plaza Barrios, named after the Salvadoran military hero, Gerardo Barrios. On the western periphery of Plaza Barrios is the old National Palace building. The Cathedral has a history of tragedy and rebirth. Since 1888, a wooden structure Cathedral served as the seat of San Salvador's archbishops. On August 8, 1951, the Old San Salvador Cathedral was consumed by fire as a distraught crowd of onlookers watched. [2]
For the next forty years, the San Salvador Cathedral was a barren concrete structure, of exposed bricks and jutting iron buttresses. During the late 1970s, Archbishop Óscar Romero famously deferred completion of the Cathedral in order to fund projects for the poor. During this time, the Cathedral was the stage of several national sagas, including the grand funerals of assassinated political figures, and Romero's fiery Sunday masses. On May 9, 1979, 24 demonstrators were gunned down by supposedly security forces on the front steps of the Cathedral during the San Salvador Cathedral Massacre.[3]
An even greater toll was exacted on Palm Sunday, March 31, 1980, during the funeral of Archbishop Romero, when 44 people were killed during a stampede after some elements, allegedly members of security forces (although it has never been corroborated) fired on mourners/worshippers and on Romero's funeral cortege, the real gunmen were never identified. Later, the square in front of the Cathedral was the site of rapturous celebrations after the signing of the Chapultepec Peace Accords that ended the Salvadoran Civil War in 1992. The Cathedral was completed and inaugurated on March 19, 1999 and finished off with a festive tiled facade by the Salvadoran master Fernando Llort.[4]

This is basically the same shot as the one below it, but taken at a wider angle. I couldn't decide which one I liked more, so I posted them both.
