Inclusions
1. Tatev Monastery
To have an accurate idea of the culture, architecture and history of Armenia, a visit to the Tatev Monastery is one of the must-haves. St. Paul and Peter Church, built in 906, is considered one of the best structures of the time. The colossal church stands on the very edge of the gorge, at the edge of the abyss. One of the favourite places of Armenians once was a university, and a few centuries later, it even became a centre of the liberation movement, led by the greatest hero of the Armenian people, Garegin Nzhdeh.
2. Karaunj
Karahunj (also known as Zorats Karer) is an ancient archaeological site in Armenia, often referred to as the "Armenian Stonehenge." Located near Sisian, it consists of over 200 large stone monoliths, some with circular holes, arranged in a pattern believed to have astronomical significance. Dating back over 7,500 years, Karahunj is considered one of the world's oldest observatories, possibly used for studying the stars and planets. The site remains a mystery, attracting historians, archaeologists, and tourists fascinated by its origins and purpose.
3. Shaki Waterfall
Shaki waterfall completes the indescribable scenery of nature. The 16-meter-high waterfall tells a beautiful legend, according to which a girl named Shaki is saved by its waters. This jewel of nature in the south of Armenia is a favorite place for both locals and tourists.
4. Areni Winery
At the end of the tour, we visit the center of winemaking in the village of Areni, where we are hosted by the Areni Wine Factory. Our guests can taste different types of Armenian wines, including those made from Areni grapes. We will also see the cellar, where the wines are stored, and on the upper floor, there's a nice cafe.
