Kakavadzor (Armenian: Կաքավաձոր; also Romanized as Kak’avadzor and Kaqavadzor) is a village in the Kotayk Province of Armenia. There are the ruins of S. Astvatsatsin, the chapel of Verin Vank (Upper Monastery) located north of the village, and a chapel in the cemetery (northwest) upon the hill. According to locals, there are supposedly other churches nearby, and possibly a monastery in the gorge northwest of the village.
Kakavadzor is served by local public transportation that brings residents to nearby Hrazdan only four times a day since roads are in poor condition. Air pollution from the MIKA Cement factory in Hrazdan has been a continuing problem for residents.
