One of the most impressive place I have ever visited in my life. Located along Akhurian river which is Turkish - Armenian border, Ani is medieval great city of Armenians dating back 5th century.n35 mins away from Kars city center and the road is in great condition. Public transportation is a bit tricky but very convenient if you are driving.nAni is in UNESCO World Heritage List. It is like a hidden gem on border. Most structures are worn due to lack of restoration, natural disasters and possibly climate but they still stand still like alive. St Gregory of Abumarents, Tigran Honents, Minuchir and the cathedral are the most popular structures. Do not forget to climb the citadel.nI highly recommend to visit in spring.
For those who are used to Roman, Byzantine, Ionian ruins, and thinking of no other civilizations in Anatolia, this is one of the top, most impressive place to visit.nVery easy to reach, just by the Armenian border really an impressive old city.nTake your time and don’t forget that it will either be too hot or cold according to the season.
I visited in winter, please visit in summer, nevertheless it was a delight.
Definitely one of best historical sites in Turkey
Ruins haven't been keeping safe and strong. UNESCO has just discovered Ani ruins in 2016. Despite this situation, some ruins conditions are not bad as in the pictures. Ministry of Culture and Turism started to restore some of them. I hope they take care of them in the future. We need to keep them safe.
