Conquering Armenia

The tour begins at 10:00 near the Marriott Hotel in Republic Square.

1st

The pearl of the tourism industry of Armenia can be attributed to the Pagan temple of Garni. The ancient temple was built in the 1st century AD by King Trdatos the first. Garni Temple was destroyed in 1679 by a strong earthquake and after centuries of attempts at reconstruction, was hardly restored in 1976, during the Soviet Union. On the territory of the complex there are also one of the oldest fortresses of Armenia, from the time of the Urartian Kingdom (8th century BC), the Church of St. Zion and the royal baths. The temple is surrounded by unique natural hills called the Symphony of Stones.

2nd

Geghard Monastery or Spear Monastery is one of the oldest monasteries in the world, which is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. In the 8th century, the Apostle Fadeus brought to the Monastery the Spear of Destiny (the Spear of the Legionnaire Longinus who pierced Jesus Christ), which is claimed by many leading scholars to be one of the three originals. The monastery was built in the 4th century, according to legend by St. Gregory the Illuminator. The complex was completely built in the rock, has many interesting cave halls and is surrounded by majestic natural rocks, where you will have a great opportunity to walk and take fabulous photos as a souvenir.

3rd

The resort town of Tsaghkadzor is the center of winter tourism in Armenia, where various winter sports events and championships are held. Further on the mountainside is the famous cable car and many other winter and summer entertainments. At the top, where you go, you will see endless expanses of majestic mountain ranges, against which you can make amazing photos for memory.

4th

The legendary Lake Sevan is the largest lake in the Caucasus and one of the most visited attractions in Armenia. Located in the Gegharkunik region, at an altitude of 1900 meters above sea level. On the peninsula, on a high hill, is the famous Sevanavank Monastery, built in 874 by Princess Mariam. Climbing the hill, you will have a great opportunity to explore the ancient Monastery complex and take really fantastic photos against the backdrop of the majestic lake.
