Some places to visit

  • Temple of Garni

    After Christianity was adopted, most pagan monuments were destroyed or abandoned. Garni, however, was preserved at the request of the sister of King Tiridates II and used as a summer residence for Armenian royalty.

     
  • Mithräum II von Güglingen

    Two Mithras sanctuaries, which were located on the edge of the settlement, were excavated in Güglingen.

     
  • Mithraeum of Kapıkaya

    Mithras became the main deity worshipped in the sanctuary of Meter in Kapikaya, Turkey, in Roman times, at least until the fourth century.

     
  • Niasar Cave

    The Niasar Cave, غار نیاسر, was a temple probably devoted to Iranian Mithras that dates back to the early Partian era.
