Echmiadzin katedral (bogstaveligt oversat: Den eneste fødtes nedstigning) er centrum for den armenske apostoliske kirke oprindeligt bygget i begyndelsen af 3. århundrede f.Kr. og en række kilder angiver også, at Etchmiadzin er den ældste officielle kristne kirke i hele verden. Dette er din chance for at besøge og udforske et så unikt og unikt sted i verden! Kirken St. Hripsime er dedikeret til en af de 40 jomfruer, der flygtede fra det romerske imperium. Stående stort set intakt siden sin opførelse, kirken har været bredt beundret for sin arkitektur, betragtes som et mesterværk af klassisk armensk arkitektur, det har påvirket mange andre armenske kirker.
Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Khor Virap-klostret ligger omkring en times kørsel fra hovedstaden Jerevan og tilbyder en fantastisk udsigt over Armeniens definerende symbol - det majestætiske Ararat. "Khor Virap" oversættes som "dybt fangehul", og blev bygget af stedet for det tidligere kongelige fængsel, beliggende på det historiske sted Artashat. Det var netop dette fængsel, hvor de holdt Gregory the Illuminator, de første armenske katolikker, i hele 13 år.
Du vil besøge St. Hripsime kirken, som blev bygget på graven af en kristen nonne Hripsime, der flygtede fra Romerriget og blev dræbt i Armenien. Denne fantastiske bygning har stået oprejst siden dens opførelse siden 618 e.Kr., hvilket gør den til en af de ældste stående kirker i verden.
Fem minutters kørsel væk vil være vores næste sted: kirken St. Gayane fra det 7. århundrede. Gayane var barnepige for Hripsime og delte Hripsimes tragiske skæbne.
Du vil være i stand til at observere verdens første kristne katedral - den hellige Ejmiatsin, bygget i 301-304. Ifølge legenden faldt Jesus Kristus ned på samme sted, hvor Dissention Altar står i dag, hvor Gregory Illuminator beordrede at bygge kirken. Katedralen er et symbol på den armenske nationale identitet og arv, hvilket afspejler landets dybt forankrede kristne tradition.
Zvartnots katedral, nu i ruiner, er en centralt planlagt tetraconch type armensk katedral bygget af ordenen af Catholicos Nerses bygherren fra 643-652. Ifølge legenden betyder navnet "Zvartnots" "himmelske engle", inspireret af troen på, at engle engang overvågede templet. Den er optaget på UNESCOs liste over kulturarv. Faktisk er alle de kirker, der er inkluderet i turen, opført på UNESCO's verdens kulturarv.

We made a private tour by: - Khor Virap Monastery – Echmiadzin Cathedral – St.Hripsime - St.Gayane Church – Zvartnots Temple Driver Harut went beyond expectations. In addition to being polite and attentive, he strived to count aspects of each stop, using Google Translator On Line, reducing language impact. We studied each stop before and can state that it passed important information from the historical sites. Congratulations to the company for having this professional on your team. In addition to visiting places we studied long before, we were happy with the guided support we had.

Dear Guest, Thank you for your feedback. We look forward to the opportunity of welcoming you on another tour in the future. Best Regards, Yerani Travel team
This tour was great! The tour guides of this company makes the visits interesting, engaging and enjoyable. Although there was a constant language switching by the tour guide from Russian to English and vice versa, which interrupted the immersion, still it was a very nice and valuable tour. I recommend them, especially if you book a tour in the Russian language, the experience will be much more unique. As a note to the operator, they should consider offering the same tours in Russian and in English as separate groups, this would keep the experience consistent in the preferred language. Other than that, everything was great

Were on an individual field trip with guide Karen today. We really enjoyed it. The guide spoke very well about the history of Yerevan, about all the temples we visited, learned very much new and unknown about the formation of Christianity. I highly recommend it. We will be sure when we get back to you and it is Karen for tours!!! Thank you!!!

On my final day I had this half day trip booked for after I checked out and had my bags. It was a private tour so I had the car to myself. The driver came to my apartment at 10am to pickup as arranged. It was an older guy who didnt speak much English but tried to help as best as could. We went first to Khor Virap then back to the churches around the city Echmiadzin, Hripsime, Gayane, and Zvarnots temple. I was dropped back at Republic Squre where I had requested. It was very convenient to have my own driver after two large bus tours on previous days and reasonably priced.
Dear Guest, Thank you for being so kind to share your experience with us. We are delighted to learn that you fully enjoyed the tours. It will be our pleasure to welcome you back to Armenia in the future! With best wishes, "Yerani Travel" Team
