Eastern Türkiye and the Churches of Georgia and Armenia
This journey through eastern Türkiye, Georgia and Armenia explores a region where some of the world’s oldest Christian traditions developed amid extraordinary mountain landscapes and centuries of cultural exchange. In eastern Anatolia, sites such as Lake Van and the Church of the Holy Cross on Akdamar Island, together with the medieval city of Ani, reveal the rich Armenian Christian heritage of the region. Continuing into Georgia and Armenia, ancient churches, monasteries and sacred landscapes trace the development of Christianity from its earliest centuries. Beyond the monuments themselves, the journey offers an insight into the peoples, architecture and traditions that have shaped this historic crossroads between Anatolia and the Caucasus.
