Masterpiece of Armenian historic and cultural heritage, Zvartnots reserve included in UNESCO’s international heritage list will host the opening ceremony of Zvartnots historic-cultural reserve museum’s new permanent exhibition on April 18.

In addition, the temple will be illuminated in the night.

Deputy director of the service for preservation of historic and cultural monuments Ashot Piliposyan told journalists that night-time illumination of the temple will feature white light only, unlike the pagan temple Garni which saw colorful illumination in 2009.

Zvartnots temple marks the 1360th anniversary of its anointment in 2012.
