Opis
Explore Armenia on a guided day trip from Yerevan. Visit Khor Virap & Noravank monasteries, taste Armenian wine at Areni Wine Factory, and discover the mountain spa town of Jermuk.
Begin your tour at the Khor Virap Monastery, the most famous pilgrimage site of the Armenian Apostolic Church. Admire the spectacular view of Mount Ararat, the national symbol of Armenia, and learn about the history of the monastery, where St. Gregory the Illuminator was imprisoned for 13 years before curing King Trdat III of a disease. This event led to the adoption of Christianity in Armenia in the year 301. Continue to the Noravank Monastery, which dates back to the 13th and 14th centuries. Explore the complex, which includes the 1339 St. Astvatsatsin (“Burtelashen”) sepulchre-church, St. Stepanos Nakhavka and gavit, the St. Grigor Church and Stepanos Orbelian Sepulchre, the remains of medieval chapels and residential quarters, and a modern office and hall. Next, visit the Areni wine factory and taste Armenian wine. Then, head to the Birds Cave, one of the rarest and best-preserved late Chalcolithic (Copper Age) monuments in the South Caucasus. Learn about the 6,000-year history of wine production in Armenia. Finish your tour in the mountain spa town of Jermuk. The name of the town is derived from the Armenian word "jermuk" or "jermook," meaning "warm mineral spring." Jermuk is famous for its hot springs and mineral water brands bottled in the town. Enjoy the fresh air, waterfall, artificial lakes, walking trails, surrounding forests, and mineral water pools.
