A construción tamén se completou coa mesma filantropía que a do rei Ashot, incluíndo a construción das famosas murallas "Ashotashen", que se ergueron arredor de Ani, mosteiros, hospitais, escolas e asilos (a súa dona Khosrovanuysh tamén fundou os complexos monásticos en Sanahin en 966 e en Haghpat no ano 976).
