“Hin Areni” Winery
We will start our tour from Khor Virap Monastery. It was here, in the underground dungeon under the Monastery, that Gregory the Illuminator spent 13 years in a prison thrown here by the Armenian King Trdat III for the preaching of Christianity. Here we will go down to the underground dungeon, which is located inside the chapel of St. Gregory the Illuminator. Here we will also admire the nice view of Mount Ararat from the territory of the monastery.
The next stop is the famous Birds Cave in Areni. It is the most popular cave in Armenia. It was here that the oldest 5500-year-old shoe in the world was found, and it was here that wine was produced 4000 years BC. Excavations are still being conducted here.
From here we will direct to the Noravank Monastery complex, which was founded at the beginning of the 13th century and became the spiritual, educational and cultural center of Syunik, the family tomb of Orbelyans' princely house.
The last stop of the tour is the excursion in the “Hin Areni" Winery and tasting of several types of wines. Those who wish can also buy wine here.
