The pagan temple of Garni was built in 1st. c. AC and was devoted to one of the Armenian Pagan Gods Mitra.

King Khosrov stayed there often as the area was his favorite hunting ground.

Geghard Monastery (UNESCO World Heritage): Geghard was initially known simply as Ayrivank (Cave Monastery). The present buildings comprising it date back to 10-13th cc., at which time it was renamed as Geghard meaning “lance” (spear) in Armenian. The name refers to the biblical lance used by a Roman soldier to pierce Christ’s body to find out if he was alive or not. The lance was kept in Geghard for a long time before being moved to the museum of Echmiadzin Cathedral. The main church, constructed in 1215, is the oldest building in the monastery complex. Avazan church, 1283, is carved right into the solid rock and is an incomparable work of art. It leads to a rectangular portico and then to another church deeper in the rock.

Visit Vernissage Flea Market Yerevan’s Flea Market is probably one of the best open-air markets in the world. It is called VERNISSAGE (varnishing, from French) — a term used for a preview of an art exhibition. The Vernissage is the right place to get little taste of Armenia and a special spot to witness the fusion between national traditions and modern taste. It offers various kinds of nice national souvenirs, jewelry, and other traditional items. Initially, this word denoted the inauguration of a modern exhibition.
