Itinerary

1. Discover Haghpat Monastery, a magnificent 10th-century UNESCO World Heritage site perched above the dramatic Debed Canyon. On this stop, explore medieval Armenian monastic architecture at its finest. Walk through the grand Cathedral of Surb Nishan, admire masterfully carved 11th-century khachkars (cross-stones), and visit the historic medieval library where ancient manuscripts were preserved. Enjoy ample time to walk through the stone vaulted halls, photograph the panoramic canyon views, and soak in the serene mountain atmosphere before continuing your trip.

2. Stop to admire the historic Sanahin Bridge, a remarkable 12th-century engineering feat spanning the rushing Debed River in Alaverdi. Crafted entirely from polished basalt stone by Queen Vaneni, this single-arch pedestrian bridge is one of Armenia’s oldest surviving stone bridges. Walk across the historic structure, admire the relief carvings of protective lions along its corners, and snap photos of the surrounding river canyon. It offers a quick, memorable photo opportunity and a comfortable leg-stretch before continuing your journey into Lori Province.

   20 min

3. Visit the historic Odzun Church, a stunning 6th-century early-Christian basilica situated high on a scenic plateau above the Debed Gorge. Admire its rare external arcaded galleries built from distinctive pink felsite stone and explore the remarkably preserved early-medieval architecture. Walk through the courtyard to examine the unique 6th-century double-arched funerary monument, which features intricate stone carvings depicting biblical scenes and early Christian history. This peaceful, lesser-traveled stop offers rich heritage, incredible photo opportunities, and sweeping views of the surrounding mountains.

   45 min

4. Experience Lake Sevan and the historic Sevanavank Monastery, one of Armenia’s most breathtaking natural and historical landmarks. Climb the scenic stone staircase up the peninsula to explore the 9th-century black-tuff stone churches of Surb Arakelots and Surb Astvatsatsin. From the monastery courtyard, take in panoramic, unobstructed views of Lake Sevan—one of the largest high-altitude alpine lakes in the world, known for its changing turquoise waters. Enjoy ample time to explore the medieval grounds, take photos, and soak in the fresh mountain breeze before completing your journey to Yerevan.

About Tbilisi

Tbilisi, Georgia's capital, spills along a river gorge beneath a fortress, mixing balconied old houses, sulphur baths and bold modern landmarks.

The old town gathers along the Mtkvari River, its narrow streets lined with carved wooden balconies, churches and wine bars. Abanotubani, the bath district, is crowned by brick domes over sulphur springs, and the walls of Narikala Fortress overlook it all, reached by cable car or a steep walk. The Mother of Georgia statue stands on the ridge holding a sword and a bowl of wine.
