To the northeast of Sanahin, cradled by the lofty peaks of Lori, stretches the monastery of Haghpat – a masterpiece of Armenian medieval art, where stone speaks the language of centuries. Founded in the 10th century under King Ashot III of the Bagratuni dynasty, it rose at a time when Armenia blossomed in culture and spirit. The weathered walls of Haghpat still carry the resonance of that golden age, bearing silent witness to the passage of time.

Akhthala Fortress, like a timeless stone sentinel, rises proudly on a high plateau in the picturesque Lori region, resembling a peninsula embraced on three sides by deep gorges. As early as the 10th century, builders fused nature's raw power with human craft: sheer cliffs were reinforced with tall defensive walls and the entrances were guarded by imposing three-tiered towers. For centuries, these walls withstood invasions and preserved within their silence the breath of history.

Dilijan is a corner of Armenia where nature and silence weave a harmony that captivates every traveler. Nestled among emerald forests and gentle hills, the town stretches along the scenic valley of the Aghstev River, where the air carries the scent of pine and the freshness of mountain streams. The national park's unique pearls are two beautiful sights hidden in the forests: Lakes Parz and Gosh, the shrubs and trees around which have witnessed numerous folk tales in the form of wild animals.

Amid the rugged ridges of Zangezur, high above deep gorges and winding mountain roads, rises the Tatev Monastery – an unrivaled masterpiece of medieval Armenian architecture. Founded in the 9th century on the site of an ancient pagan sanctuary, it became both the spiritual and political heart of the Syunik principality.

Ездили в трехдневную поездку по северу Армении с ночевкой в Дилижане и Гюмри. Очень красивые места, огромное впечатления остались от монастырей Агарцин, Ахтала и Аричаванк. Маршрут занимает не полный день и у нас осталось свободное время на то, чтобы самостоятельно побродить в двух городах, погулять по лесу в Дилижане. Отдельное спасибо нашему водителю Ваграну, очень внимательный человек, никогда нас не торопил, несколько раз сделал дополнительные остановки на дороге, чтобы можно было сфотографировать красоты природы. Не первый раз путешествую с Йур Сервис (до этого были на групповых экскурсиях) и в очередной раз довольна. Спасибо!

Огромная благодарность гиду Армине Джулакян и водителю Спартаку за сопровождение нашей группы в течение десяти дней.
Экскурсии были интересны, насыщенны и познавательны. Все места, которые нам посчастливилось посетить, заиграли яркими красками и глубоким смыслом в сопровождении рассказов Армине, человека несомненно эрудированного и влюблённого в историю и культуру родной страны.
Водитель виртуозно провез по всем серпантинам и перевалам, в любой ситуации спокоен, приветлив и готов прийти на помощь.
Обязательно буду советовать поездку в Армению своим друзьям и знакомым. Остались только самые яркие впечатления и тёплые воспоминания.
