In the morning we leave Yerevan for the Shirak region. Visit Harichavank Monastery
Is an ancient 7th-century monastery located in a picturesque gorge near the town of Spitak. The Church of St. Gregory is distinguished by its austere architecture and a unique atmosphere of tranquility. Its stone walls, harmony with nature, and the grandeur of centuries make Harichavank one of the most mysterious and beautiful places in the Lori region.
City tour of Gyumri We invite you on a fascinating stroll through Armenia's most colorful city – Gyumri! Here, every stone holds history, and the streets exude the spirit of old Armenia. You'll see cozy 19th-century neighborhoods, the famous Kumayri district, learn about legendary masters and artists, and visit museums, ancient churches, and picturesque courtyards where life unfolds at its leisurely pace.
Then you visit Mher Mkrtchyan House Museum.
In the heart of Gyumri stands the cozy house where the great actor Mher Mkrtchyan, beloved by millions and a symbol of kindness and genuine humor, was born and raised. This isn't just a museum—it's an encounter with a legend whose smile still illuminates Gyumri and the hearts of all who visit. A fayton ride. (for an additional fee)
The fayton is an ancient carriage that has become a true symbol of Gyumri. Once upon a time, these carriages were used by city residents to navigate the narrow streets, and today the fayton has become a living reminder of the past and a vibrant part of the city's atmosphere.
