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, surrounded by shrubs and trees that have inspired numerous folk tales and shelter the quiet life of wild animals.

Lake Parz, located at an altitude of 1334 meters above sea level in the picturesque Dilijan National Park, is one of the most enchanting corners of the Tavush region. Formed as a result of natural climatic processes, today it captivates with its harmony with the surrounding nature. The calm surface of the water mirrors the dense forests and drifting clouds, creating an atmosphere of peace and serenity.

In the emerald mountains of Tavush, hidden among forests and cliffs, lies Makaravank – a monastic complex that shines as one of the jewels of medieval Armenia. Its origins go back to the 12th-13th centuries, when master builders succeeded in blending architectural grandeur with the harmony of the surrounding landscape. The complex consists of three churches, living quarters and service buildings, each still impressive for its scale and careful design.

The Ijevan Wine and Brandy Factory, founded in 1951, has become a true guardian of Armenia's winemaking and brandy traditions. In this green and fertile land of Tavush, nature itself seems to have infused power and fragrance into every grape cluster, every berry, every fruit. Here are born drinks that carry you into a world of legend: noble brandies with a deep, warm flavor, refined wines filled with the energy of the sun and fruit-and-berry elixirs woven from the very soul of orchards and forests.

В Армении бываю часто и всегда пользуюсь услугами туристического агентства “ Hyur ”. Вчера была в очередном туре Дилижан - Парзлич - Макараванк. Тур провела замечательный гид Маня. За рулем был опытный водитель Марик. Спасибо им! По моим наблюдениям за много лет, все гиды и водители имеют опыт, ответственно относятся к безопасности туристов. Желаю турагенству “Hyur” дальнейшего процветания! Рекомендую всем, приезжающим в прекрасную Армению.

С самым добрым и отзвчивым водителем Арменом ездили на оз.Севан, всю дорогу делал нам сюрпризы, то вкусной лепешкой угостит, то красивое место для обеда забронирует, то вне чуть чуть отклонится от маршрута и сводит на красивый водопад,ну о самой экскцрсии, лучше все увидеть своими глазами
