The lake Sevan

Serene, calm and picturesque- this is how I would like to describe the Lake Sevan. A trip to Armenia won’t be complete if you miss lake Sevan. It is beyond amazing.

Tatev monastery

Take a splendid voyage in “Tatev wings.” The Guinness Book of Records considers this 5.7kms long aerial tramway as “world’s longest reversible cableway.” This beautiful 12-minute journey is the easiest way to reach the famous Tatev monastery.

The Garni

Garni is an ancient pagan temple with Roman-style baths and cyclopic stone walls. The temple was dedicated to the sun goddess mythra, but soon after adopting Christianity this amazing pagan temple lost its importance, and the fortress of Garni became the summer residence of the kings. This beautiful remains of the ancient days are always worth visiting.

The Geghard

The Gheghard is a UNESCO World Heritage Site with enhanced protection status. Moreover, it is ancient, partially carved out of the adjacent mountain, surrounded by cliffs and is beautiful- so this monastery comes in the top places to visit in Armenia.

Vernissage

Take back some goodies along with Armenian memories. Grab some pieces of stuff for your kith and kins from Vernissage. Vernissage is an open-air market in Yerevan city with folk art, unique jewelry, exclusive handmade masterpieces craftsmanship.
