Surp Hovhannes Church (Armenian: Սուրբ Յովհաննէս եկեղեցի; translates to the Church of Saint John) is an important 10th century basilica located in the village of Byurakan in the Aragatsotn Province of Armenia. Not very far away from S. Hovhannes in the same village are the ruins of the Artavazik Church of the 7th century with a huge 13th-century khachkar monument directly across the ravine from the structure.
