      First of all, we get acquainted with the capital city of Armenia. Yerevan is already 2801 years old, even older than Rome. In the morning we head to Cascade Complex, which is also considered to be an open-air museum. The view of the city is complete from the top of the complex, from where you have the big picture of the pink city and savour the majestic Mt Ararat. Then morning walk in the centre of the city. Breathe the fresh morning air and touch the everyday life of the Armenians living in this big city. From Opera House, you will go to Republic Square through Northern Avenue. The life in Northern Avenue never sleeps. And at Republic Square, you will visit the History Museum, where you will know so much about Armenia, one of the most ancient countries in the world. Then you will visit Megerian Carpet, the wonderful exhibition hall with hundreds of Armenian national rugs, pieces of clothing and other traditional items. The last stop of the day will be Ararat Brandy Factory, where you will be told about the interesting preparing process of brandy and also taste two types of cognac.

      Day 3: Geghard - Garni โ€“ Duduk Concert-Vernissage

      You head to Geghard Monastery. Geghard is a 4th century monastic complex in the middle of the green nature. The monastery is divine by its architecture, position and majesty. The mountains around and the green forest make you feel completely in another world. Next, take the way to Garni, a huge village in Kotayk province, where Armenians have been living since the 3rd millennium BC. There you will visit one of the most incredible pieces of architecture. The temple dates back to the 1st century AD presenting the Hellenistic style. The only pagan temple existing in Armenia is devoted to the god of Sun, Mihr. On the right side of the temple, you will see the bases of a church which was going to be built after adopting Christianity, but the temple remained and the construction of the church was stopped. The amazing gorge is under the cliff where the temple stands. The guarding mountains are just astounding. Right here at the Temple of Garni, you will enjoy Duduk Concert (an Armenian musical instrument famous throughout the world). After the concert, you will head to Yerevan and visit an open market of Armenian traditional items. Vernissage is a place where the souvenirs, jewellery, handicrafts, accessories of national clothing and much more than expected can be found.

In the morning you head to the spiritual city of Armenia, Echmiadzin, where you will visit St Gayane and St Hripsime churches built in the honour of virgins Gayane and Hripsime who were preaching Christianity in Armenia and were to be torched by the Armenian King Trdat before adopting the new religion in Armenia. Then, the next stop is at Etchmiadzin Monastery which is the first Christian monastery ever built not only in Armenia but in the whole world as well. This is where our Catholicos sits and gathers all the Christians around him.

Goshavank monastery is quite high by its position and is a huge monastic complex. The grey stone from which the monastery has been built is just blending with the surrounding. After Goshavank you head to Haghartsin, the white pearl of the forest. Dating back to the 11th century, the monastic complex has been an important centre for the development of education and cultural life since the 13th century.

Sevanavank and the peninsula have played a crucial role in Armenian history. The magical lake, in other words, โ€˜the blue eye of Armeniaโ€™, is under your feet. It is one of the largest freshwater high-altitude lakes in the world.  Not far from the shore you will discover Noratous. There you will see thousands of khachkars in one and the same place but you canโ€™t find even two of them being the same. All are different and all have special ornaments. The next stop is at Selim. Selim Caravanserai was built along the commercial route for the accommodation of travellers. The famous Silk Road was passing by the Selim mountains, and this building has been a perfect place for travellers. Then, we go to Jermuk where the overnight will be. Jermuk is one of the main spa and resort towns which is famous for mineral water pools, the surrounding forests, walking trails, artificial lakes, waterfalls, and fresh air.
