Noratus is home to one of the wonders of Armenia : an amazing field of khachkars. There are other groups of khachkars in Armenia, but this is the largest, with about 900 of them. Along side sheep, you can wander around and inspect the carvings: none are similar and many are exquisite. Why so many of them were erected at this location is not known. It is possible that not all of them are tombstones, some might have be put in place to celebrate other events.
The village of Noratus also has 2 churches: the 10th century St Gregory, which also has some nice khachkars behind, and the Holy Virgin church, which was used as a factory during the Soviet times and is now mostly ruined.
