Tbilisi: Armenia Day Trip with Lake Sevan and Yerevan｜Armenia

Begin your journey in Tbilisi and fly through the southern regions of Georgia to the border with Armenia. Stop at the "They Will Grow Again" monument, a large-scale sculpture of a mother with two sons, clutching a huge sword. This monument, erected in 1975, speaks of a willingness to defend the Motherland and the endless cycle of life that cannot be broken.

Haghpat is an active monastery of the Armenian Apostolic Church in the village of the same name in Armenia's Lori Province. The complex is located on a small plateau surrounded by gorges and was founded in 976 by Ashot III the Merciful Bagratuni. Queen Khosrovanush played a significant role in the monastery's founding. From the 10th to the 13th centuries, Haghpat was one of the centers of Armenian spiritual culture, a large monastic estate with extensive lands. From the second half of the 12th century, Haghpat became the spiritual and religious center of the Kingdom of Lori.

Continue to Dilijan, where nature transforms into an emerald green. After driving through a mountain tunnel, suddenly see the vast mirror of Lake Sevan. Ascend to the Sevanavank Cathedral to take the best photos of the lake against the backdrop of snowy peaks.

Conclude your tour in Yerevan's Victory Park. Here stands Mother Armenia, a monument that seems to be in dialogue with the one in Marneuli. Discuss the similarities and differences in the two countries' art and enjoy the view of the capital's lights from the foot of the Cascade.
