1. Noravank Monastery

Reviewed By LuizDutraNeto - Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
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.

the gorge is stunning, the rocks amazing colours and the little restaurant on the right just after you turn into it is well worth a stop. The monastery is beautifully situated

Amazing sight, we're totally alone there when visiting. In the end of April still about a metre of snow, makes one think about the travelers visiting here 700 years ago during the height of winter after being on the road for months. Unmissable if passing this mountain pass
