Garni Geghard Symphony of Stones Lavash Baking Tour fra Jerevan
Beskrivelse
Garni-templet, et af de mest berømte historiske og arkitektoniske monumenter blandt turister, ligger i Kotayk-provinsen. Det er den eneste bygning, der er bevaret i Armenien fra den hedenske periode, dedikeret til guden Mihr. Inden vi når templet, holder vi et stop på vej til Charents Arch, hvorfra en vidunderlig udsigt over Mount Ararat åbner sig. Derefter besøger vi Geghard Kloster (Ayrivank), hvor ifølge legenden fra det XIII århundrede det spyd, som Kristus blev gennemboret med, blev opbevaret her. Som en del af turen besøger vi Azat-flodens kløft, hvor vi vil se "Symphony of Stones", et naturens mirakel. Naturmonumentet, også kendt som ՛՛Basalt Organ՛՛, er berømt for sine storslåede, tilsyneladende kunstige klipper.

Rejseplan
Mens han passerede gennem landsbyen Voghjaberd, bemærkede arkitekten Rafael Israelyan ofte, at en vidunderlig udsigt over Mount Ararat åbner fra den nærliggende bakke. Og her, i 1957, færdiggjorde Israelyan den struktur, han designede, som kaldes Mount Ararat Temple. Den sidste linje af Yeghishe Charents digt er indgraveret i synlige store bogstaver på den forreste indgang. "Gå til verden; der er ingen hvid top som Ararat, som stien til umodne herlighed; Jeg elsker min Masis bjerg." Snart fik stedet sit nye, populære og mere udbredte navn - Charentsbuen. Vi starter turen med udsigt over Mount Ararat, symbolet for Armenien.
Geghard-klosteret er et middelalderkloster i Kotayk-provinsen, der delvist er skåret ud af det tilstødende bjerg, omgivet af klipper. Navnet, der almindeligvis bruges til klosteret i dag, Geghard, eller mere fuldstændigt Geghardavank, der betyder "Spydets Kloster", stammer fra det spyd, der havde såret Jesus ved korsfæstelsen. Det menes, at spydet blev bragt til Armenien af apostlen Judas, her kaldet Thaddeus, og opbevaret blandt mange andre relikvier. Nu vises den i Echmiadzins statskasse. Klosterkomplekset er opført på UNESCOs verdensarvsliste med forbedret beskyttelsesstatus.
Næste stop er basaltorganet, stenenes symfoni. Akkumuleringen af naturligt skåret sten med vidunderlig symmetri er et sandt naturunder og også en del af UNESCOs verdensarv. De sekskantede sten, strakt den ene efter den anden på tværs af canyonen, ligner et orgel, deraf navnet.
Templet, der blev bygget i det første århundrede og havde været omkring i århundreder, blev ødelagt og rejste sig igen. Den fortæller om præ-kristne Armenien og det armenske folk. Templet dedikeret til Mithra, solguden, er det eneste bevarede hedenske tempel både i Armenien og i det tidligere Sovjetunionen. Templet blev ødelagt af et ødelæggende jordskælv i 1679 og blev restaureret i ca. 8 år, 1968-75.
Bekendtgørelsen slutter med en lavash master class, hvor du vil se, hvordan det berømte armenske brød, lavash, er bagt.

Very very good trip and good drive we enjoy beautiful time Good experience And I will come next year to make it again Thank you very much
Well organized tour with plenty of time at each stop. Harout, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable in numerous areas, from history to climate, to geology. He is a gem of an asset to the operation and should be held on to and appreciated for his dedication and commitment. My only thought was in regards to the van, whose air conditioning system could not keep up with the heat of the day. Restaurant stop was good. Value was sufficient and tasty. Lavash baking class on site at the restaurant was appreciated by all! Thanks for a great tour and we already have another one booked.
The day trip was excelent moment to explore important points are armenian culture. Everithing was fine.
