The main reasoj to come to Grani is the two thousand years old Garni Fortress and the white-basalt Temple of the Sun, dating from the 1-st century. It was fully restored in 1976, and is surrounded by Ionic columns. Next to the temple is a Roman bath, complete with a mosaic floor and ancient plumbing. Garni is usually seen on a day trip from Yerevan, along with Gegard.
