From Yerevan: Garni Temple, Geghard Monastery & Lavash Tour

Discover Armenia's history and culture on a tour from Yerevan. Visit the Arch of Charents, Garni Temple, and Geghard Monastery, and learn how to bake traditional lavash bread.
Begin your tour with a visit to the Arch of Charents, a viewpoint offering stunning views of Mount Ararat, the symbol of Armenia. Learn about the architect Rafael Israelyan, who designed the structure in 1957, and see the last line of Yeghishe Charents's poem engraved on the front entrance.

Next, head to the Garni Temple, the only preserved pagan temple in Armenia and the former USSR. Built in the first century and dedicated to Mithra, the God of the Sun, the temple tells the story of pre-Christian Armenia. Discover how it was destroyed by a devastating earthquake in 1679 and restored between 1968 and 1975.

Continue to the Garni Gorge to see the Symphony of Stones, a natural wonder and part of the UNESCO World Heritage. Admire the hexagonal basalt stones, which resemble a giant organ, stretching across the canyon.

Then, visit the Geghard Monastery, a rock-hewn monastery surrounded by 140 caves once inhabited by monks. Learn about the holy relic Geghard, the weapon of the Roman centurion Longianos, which is now kept in the Holy Mother See of Etchmiatsin.

End your tour with a lavash master class, where you’ll see how the famous Armenian bread is baked.
