It lies at the southeastern end of the country, bordering the Nakhichevan exclave of Azerbaijan in the west and the Kalbajar District (de jure part of Azerbaijan, de facto controlled by the unrecognized Artsakh Republic) in the east. It covers an area of 2,308 km (891 sq mi). With a population of only 53,230 (2002 census), it is the most sparsely populated province in the country.

This monastery dates from the 13th century and is completely different from other Armenian monasteries. "Noravank" means "new", so this the the "New Monastery". On its first floor, the mausoleum of Prince Burtel Orbelian and his family. Right on its façade, a narrow stone-made staircase (very dangerous, I must say) leads to the upper floor and to "Surb Astvatsatsin", the "Holy Mother of God Church"! It is a major religious and cultural center in Armenia and its visit could be combined with the one to "Khor Virap Monastery", as both monasteries are not very far from each other. Enjoy!

We welcome wine-lovers for authentic wine-tasting experience. Started at 1998 Old Bridge was one of the first boutique wines of independent Armenia.
We visited the Old Bridge Winery with couple of friends and spent the time of our lives! The owners are the most hospitable and friendly people in Armenia. The food tast and the presentation are on another level! Ohhh their wine??? In the top 3% of the world with its gold medal!

Family owned and operated since 2018, Momik Wines offers an immersive and authentic Armenian wine experience. Visit our WineCube, nestled beneath the mountains that surround Areni village, to taste fine wine, enjoy locally-sourced food, and learn the ancient craft of khachkar (cross-stone) making.
We took a taxi from our hotel in Yerevan and two hours later found ourselves on a twisting dirt road, surrounded by fields and mountains, on the outskirts of Areni. Google Maps told us to keep going but we had our doubts, until suddenly up on a hill we finally caught sight of a small "cube". Nver and Narine, and their son Haig, greeted us with broad smiles and invited us to sit at a table that was laid with delicious looking food: cold cuts, cheeses, breads, salad, olives, bread and tomato, and lots of fabulous fruit. We were soon joined by a lovely couple from Barcelona and then the feast began. Four hours of fabulous wine tasting, fun conversation and great local food. The family wines are superb! And Nver and Narine are extremely generous and make sure your glass is never empty. The white wine was exquisite, light and subtle, as was the rose, and the red was velvety and full bodied. After three hours of nonstop wine-tasting they brought out a sweet red that their 14 year old son Haig had made --it was the sixth of only 8 bottles that he made, so we felt very honoured. It was a real treat. The toilet was very clean and very necessary considering the quantities of wine we consumed. All in all, it was a wonderful wine and personal experience. We wish Nver and Narine and their children continued success. Thank you so much for this unforgettable day!

Stay at The River House and enjoy a nice gentle scenic walk through Yeghegis Village up to this magnificent historic church that is mostly in original condition. There are wonderful views from the church.
