About Tatev
The world's longest non-stop aerial cable car whisks visitors above a serpentine canyon to Tatev's clifftop Armenian Apostolic monastery, hanging impossibly against the sky. The monastery's stone walls hug the cliff edge, each church a feat of medieval engineering. This is Armenia's most dramatically sited spiritual centre, where faith literally built on the edge.
