The Monastery of Geghard

The Geghard Monastery, situated in the Kotayk province, is a medieval marvel partially carved into the adjacent mountain and encircled by cliffs. Its commonly used name, Geghard or Geghardavank, meaning "the Monastery of the Spear," stems from the spear that wounded Jesus during the Crucifixion. According to belief, Apostle Jude, also known as Thaddeus in Armenia, brought the spear to the region, where it was safeguarded among various relics, now exhibited in the Echmiadzin treasury. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the monastery complex enjoys enhanced protection status.

Charent's Arch

While driving along the Yerevan-Garni highway, you'll spot the Charents Arch perched on a hill to the right side of the road. This monument pays homage to the esteemed Armenian poet and patriot, Yeghishe Charents. Legend has it that Charents frequented this spot, captivated by its breathtaking vistas. Although appearing simple at first glance, the stone arch holds significant historical and cultural value. Notably, it offers uninterrupted views of the majestic biblical Mount Ararat throughout the day, earning it the alternate name, the Arch of Ararat. This site is a beloved and widely visited attraction, drawing tourists to revel in its awe-inspiring panoramas and capture memorable photographs.

Symphony of Stones

The Symphony of Stones, also known as the "Basalt Organ," stands as a natural marvel situated within the Azat River basin, near Garni village. Recognized as one of Armenia's natural monuments, this site boasts massive hexagon and pentagon basalt columns, reaching impressive heights of nearly 50 meters. The remarkable symmetry of these stones gives the appearance of meticulous craftsmanship. Hanging against gravity, they form a resemblance to an organ, earning the alternate name "Basalt Organ Pipes." As the Azat River flows through the gorge, the stones are accompanied by the soothing sound of water, enhancing the splendor of this geological wonder.
