Stop At: Garni Temple, Geghard Monastery Road H3, Garni Armenia
On this tour, immerse yourself in the history of Armenia before Christianization and feel like you are in Athens, in ancient Greece. On this excursion, you will explore the former Hellenistic temple throughout the former USSR and admire ancient Greek architecture. The temple lies on the edge of a gorge, so that you can enjoy an unforgettable view of the mountains from here. On the edge of the temple complex you can still marvel at the excavation site of a Roman bath complex from the 3rd century. In particular, the very well preserved floor mosaic is worth mentioning here.
Duration: 45 minutes

Marvel at one of the most extraordinary monastery buildings in the world on this tour. Partly carved directly into the stone, the monastery complex from the 4th century stands where the cave springs originate.
