Overview

I had heard about Zvartnots cathedral since I was a child. I visited Zvartnots cathedral for the first time last spring during an excursion with my classmates. It was then that it attracted me with its name, which means ``place of angels'', and with the appearance displayed in the museum there.

     When I found out about this competition and the requirements of the competition, I decided to make a 3D model of the Zvartnots Cathedral and show people how beautiful it really was, and give them the opportunity to admire it inside and out.

     My brother and I, searching for information on the Internet, discovered for ourselves that Armenian and European cultures have had contact with each other since early times. This was also evidenced by the sculpture of Zvartnots among the bas-reliefs of the Sainte-Chapelle church in Paris.

Studying the information about the temple, a dream was born to see the Zvartnots Cathedral rebuilt, because by preserving the heritage that has come to us and building a new one, we enrich the world.
