Armenia trips

 

When you arrive in Yerevan, you will be welcomed at the airport and taken to your accommodation. Depending on the time of your arrival, you'll be given a walking tour of Yerevan's center after you've settled in. Yerevan is Armenia's capital and biggest city. The city is located on the northeastern side of the Ararat valley, encircled by the Caucasus Mountains, at elevations varying from 900 to 1300 meters above sea level. Yerevan takes pride in its lengthy and illustrious history, which dates back to the seventh century BC. There is a lunch option in the evening at a well-known restaurant with a live music program. You'll be spending the night in a hotel.

 

Day 2: Yerevan – Echmiadzin – Yerevan

Starting in Victory Park and ending in the Cascade, a sort of open-air museum of modern art, your day will begin with a tour of Armenia's capital. The Sergei Parajanov Museum and the edifice of the Opera and Ballet Theater will then be open to the general public. Your next destination in Echmiadzin, Armenia's spiritual capital, will be the 7th-century Church of St. Hripsime and the Mother See Cathedral of St. Echmiadzin. You'll stop for lunch and a rest on your way back to Machanents Creative Center. Sasuntsi - Kochar David's work may spark your interest. After that, you'll be taken on a tour of the museum of the "Megerian Carpet" factory, which has 400-year-old carpets. Those who wish to create their own carpets with the help of our artists are welcome to do so. In the evening, take a stroll along Northern Avenue to observe the Republic Square singing fountains. You'll be staying in a hotel for the night.

 

After breakfast and checking out of the hotel, travel across the Ararat valley to the Khor Virap monastery. Armenia's conversion to Christianity in the fourth century is entwined with the monastery's history. Khor Virap provides an exceptional view of Mount Ararat due to its vicinity. Then travel to Areni, Armenia's winemaking center, in the Vayots Dzor area. As you can see, some 6,000 years ago, the Areni cave was the site of the discovery of wine production on Armenian soil. The world's oldest shoe was discovered in a cave in September 2008, and it remains the most impressive collection. You'll then go to Noravank, a spectacular 13th-century monastery nestled among red rocks in a stunning canyon. You'll go to Goris after lunch for some leisure and sampling. Check in and take a break. Evening Goris and its environs captivate all visitors. You'll be staying in a hotel for the night.

 

After breakfast in Goris, you'll go to Zorats Karer (Karahunj), a fascinating and unique location. Zorats Karer is a medieval archaeological site with a Bronze Age megalithic edifice located at an elevation of 1770 meters above sea level. Rows of large red-brown monoliths may be viewed from the road. Karahunj was a sixth-millennium BC observatory, according to archeological evidence. Many of the steles have engraved holes that correlate to the 7.5 thousand-year-old positions of the stars in the sky. Then there's Tatev, the Middle Ages' architectural crown jewel of Armenia. The public may now ride the world's longest cable car, which spans the 320-meter-deep Vorotan canyon. After a great meal, your journey will take you to Yeghegis, where you will spend the night.

 

The tour will begin with a stop at the Selim Pass, which is located at an elevation of 2500 meters above sea level. From here, you may enjoy a great perspective of the surrounds. This day will be spent enjoying Lake Sevan, Armenia's blue jewel. Sevan is one of the world's largest highland freshwater lakes, at 1900 meters above sea level. Another alternative is cheese that has been aged in wine or cognac. Visit the monasteries of Ayrivank and Noradus. Then you'll enjoy lunch and a master class with Tsaghkunk's most well-known chef. In 874, Princess Mariam built the Sevanavank Monastery, which looks out over a beautiful lake surrounded by mountains. Dilijan, a resort town scenic beauty woodland settings and fresh pine-scented air, will be our next stop on our tour. A walk around the historic district takes you to a town in the seventeenth century. Spend the night in a hotel.

 

Travel to Armenia's Lori region after a substantial breakfast and a cup of freshly brewed coffee. The itinerary includes visits to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed ancient monasteries of Sanahin and Haghpat. Sanahin and Haghpat were the most important educational and scientific centers in medieval Armenia. Lori is home to a number of architectural wonders as well as stunning vistas of lush woods, steep Debed River basins, and old riverside towns. Lunch may be had across the street at the Kefoe restaurant, which serves traditional Armenian food prepared according to family recipes. Then you'll go to Gyumri, Armenia's second-largest city and cultural capital. The city is home to a local legend museum, a historical and cultural reserve, five churches, a monastery, and an Orthodox chapel. The Amenaprkich Church (Church of the Savior), on the other hand, is the most attractive and worth preserving of the three. Dinner is served in the gastro-yard of Gvug. Stay in a hotel for the night.

 

On your Gyumri trip, stop by Sev Berd, the Museum of Crafts, and Frunzik Mkrtchyan after breakfast. The Cherkezi Dzor restaurant will serve lunch. The route to Yerevan continues along the Kasakh River valley, past Mount Aragats and the Saghmosavank Monastery (Psalm Monastery). Along the seaside is the Armenian alphabet letters monument, which was created in 2005 to commemorate the alphabet's 1600th anniversary. You will be met with a stunning vista of the canyon as soon as you enter the monastery. In Yerevan, check in and unwind. You'll be spending the night in a hotel.

 

The tour will begin with a stop to the Azat River Canyon, a breathtaking site. Geghard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site from the 13th century, will be visited. The monastery is carved out of the rock and is surrounded by cliffs. Visitors may go from the monastery to Garni, where they can see the Symphony of Stones and a pagan temple in the Hellenistic style. Garni, constructed in 77 AD, is the sole preserved pagan temple in the region. On the patio of a local home, a traditional meal will be provided for lunch.
