YEREVAN. – Together with Haghpat Monastery, Sanahin Monastic Complex is included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site list, and the Government of Armenia allocated 300 million drams (approx. $719,937) for its restoration.  

Mkrtich Minasyan, Head of the Union of Architects of Armenia, noted the abovementioned during a press conference on Saturday.

“A daily attention should be paid so we may prolong the life of the monuments. But all monuments need daily attention, especially when the state does not have so much money,” Minasyan added.

In his words, the proprietors need to take good care of the monuments.        

He also stressed that PM Tigran Sargsyan is interested that the restoration is carried out in the best way possible.
