Yerevan-Garni-Symphony of Stones-Geghard-Sevan-Yerevan

Garni - The journey begins with a visit to Garni Temple, the only standing pagan temple in Armenia, built in the 1st century AD and dedicated to Mihr. Set above the Azat River gorge, it offers stunning views and reflects Armenia’s pre-Christian heritage.
Nearby, explore the Symphony of Stones, a remarkable natural formation of basalt columns resembling giant organ pipes.

Visit Geghard Monastery, a UNESCO-listed complex partly carved into the cliffs, dating back to the 13th century and known for its unique architecture and spiritual atmosphere.

Sevan - The journey then continues to Lake Sevan, often called the “Pearl of Armenia” and one of the largest high-altitude freshwater lakes in the world. Located at around 1,900 meters above sea level, the lake is famous for its crystal-clear blue waters and stunning mountain scenery, offering a peaceful and picturesque setting.
Here, visit Sevanavank Monastery, located on the Sevan Peninsula. Once an island, the area became a peninsula due to changes in the lake’s water level. The monastery provides not only historical insight but also panoramic views over Lake Sevan.
