Hidden Yerevan: Khachkar Master

Varazad Hambartsumyan's khachkar shop is nestled between tall buildings, just five minutes walking distance from Republic Square and two minutes away from the busy streets of Northern Avenue. Covered in dust from the huge stone carvings, the master talks about his craft.
