Story:
These are some of the main attractions in central Karabakh. Stepanakert is the capital, Gandzasar is an easily accessible monastery (by road), and Shushi is a historic town with a lot of war (or rather post-war) damage.

Tips:
NOTE: You CANNOT get to Karabakh from Azerbaijan, even though the map shows it as part of Azerbaijan!!

You can only get to Karabakh via Armenia. See http://www.armeniapedia.org for details. Sorry the tracks are not by GPS, just an idea of the places the photos were taken.
