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.

Not far from Haghpat, in the heart of the Lori region, rises Sanahin Monastery – a true marvel of Armenia's medieval architecture. Its construction began in the second half of the 10th century, during the reign of King Ashot III and from the very beginning the complex was conceived as both a spiritual and educational center.

280 kilometers north of Yerevan stretches Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia – a city where the past and the present beat in the same vibrant rhythm. At its heart runs the Kura River, an artery that unites centuries, mirroring in its waters church domes, bridges and the sparkling lights of the metropolis. In its narrow alleys whispers of history can still be heard, while the wide avenues breathe with the pulse of a modern city.

Our group traveled from Tbilisi to Yerevan on June 9, and the transfer was provided by the travel agency hyur service. We’ve used this wonderful agency before, and once again we were convinced of its high level of professionalism and responsibility. Everything was done perfectly. Our wonderful tour leader, Marianna, accompanied and looked after us along the way; she constantly checked how our trip was going. We were lucky with our driver, whose name is Aro, and we were in his safe hands throughout the whole trip. He is a wonderful, warm-hearted and friendly person, and no one in our group felt alone. Aro was very attentive and kind the whole way, and he once again showed us that Armenia is a wonderful country with warm-hearted and hospitable people. We will always travel around Armenia only with the travel agency Hyur Service, and we’ll ask to make sure Aro is our driver!!!
