The Cathedral of Talin is situated in the southern boundaries of Talin region of the Aragatzotn province. Its construction is ascribed to the Kamsarakan noble house. The Cathedral of Talin (36.7 x 26.7 m in size) is a longitudinal three-aisled church with a dome and three projecting apses on the east, north, and south sides. It was probably commissioned by Prince Nerseh Kamsarakan. Its plan seems to be a synthesis of a cruciform church and the older Armenian domed basilica-type churches and reminds of the Dvin Cathedral (608-615). Each apse is polygonal on the exterior. Entrances are on the north, south and west sides.     Cathedral of Talin
