Today, the fantastic landscapes of the Chokh terraces attract tourists, and locals graze cattle here.
But back in the Bronze Age, terraced agriculture flourished here: vineyards, grain crops, and fruit orchards were grown.
Chokh terraces are not only beautiful, but also a memory of the incredible work of the mountaineers who managed to turn mountains into fertile gardens.
