What's included in Private Tour: Garni-Geghard-Tsaghkadzor-Sevan
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Garni
Garni Temple is situated in the village of Garni, in the heart of Armenia, and was constructed in the Ionic style. It is the most well-known building and representation of pre-Christian Armenia. The building was most likely constructed by king Tiridates I as a temple for the sun god Mihr in the first century AD. It was transformed into a royal summer residence of Khosrovidukht, the sister of Tiridates III, following Armenia's conversion to Christianity at the beginning of the fourth century. Some academics contend that it was a mausoleum rather than a temple, which is why it managed to withstand the destruction of pagan buildings.
The Monastery of Geghard
Geghard, which translates to "spear," is a medieval monastery in Armenian. It is a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The spear that wounded Jesus at the Crucifixion was allegedly brought to Armenia by Apostle Jude, known here as Thaddeus, and kept among many other relics. It is now on exhibit in the Treasury of Echmiadzin.
Tsaghkadzor
Tsaghkadzor is a very hospitable city, where the beauty of nature is displayed in all its glory. Everything here is designed for high-quality rest, and a very big role in it has the cable car, which was built with high European standards. A 6175m long ski-lift takes skiers from an altitude of 1966m to 2819m above sea level
