On the edge of the scenic Kasakh Gorge, just north of Mughni, rises Saghmosavank, the Monastery of Psalms, a name that itself sounds like a prayer. Founded in the 12th-13th centuries by the noble Vachutyan family, it became not only a spiritual haven but also a sanctuary where priceless manuscripts were copied and preserved. The complex is composed of four structures: the grand main Church of Saint Zion, a narthex, a spacious library and the modest Chapel of the Holy Mother of God. Perched above the abyss of the gorge, Saghmosavank's stone walls have witnessed the passage of centuries, holding within them the strength of countless prayers and the quiet rhythm of nature's voice.

At the foot of the majestic Mount Aragats, in the quiet village of Artashavan, the Armenian Alphabet Monument rises where the mountain winds seem to carry ancient tales. Created in 2005 to mark the 1600th anniversary of the Armenian script, the site has since become a magnet for those wishing to feel the nation's cultural spirit. During the celebrations, on May 28, Armenia's Republic Day, which marks the proclamation of the First Republic, Armenians joined hands in an unprecedented kochari circle dance around Mount Aragats. This beloved national dance was later inscribed on UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2017.

Founded in 2008, the "Armenia Wine" Factory is today rightfully considered one of the largest and most modern winemaking centers in the country. Its main pride is the harmonious combination of ancient Armenian winemaking traditions and cutting-edge technology, resulting in both sparkling and still wines of impeccable quality.

In 2007, Armenak Aslanyan returned to his homeland to give new life to the ancient winemaking traditions established by his ancestors more than eighty years ago. This is how "Golden Grape ArmAs" was born – an estate where earth, sun and people come together to create a living legend. Amid the serene hills stretch vineyards and orchards whose aromas fill the air, telling the story of this land. Every step of the tour feels like a journey through past and future: from the vines and production halls to the cellars with oak barrels where the soul of the wine is born.

Hi! My name is Roza, and I've been working as a tour guide since 2019. Why did I choose this profession? It's very simple: I love Armenia, I love people, and I love introducing people to Armenia. But not just introducing them – I do my best to make them fall in love with my country, too.
