Welcome to the amazing city of Yerevan!
We will start our tour at the monument to Alexander Tamanyan.
One of the brightest and most exciting corners of the Armenian capital is the Cascade Complex.
The Cascade is not only an architectural marvel, but also the soul of the city, a place where modern art and an atmosphere of inspiration merge. Each level of the Cascade is a new work of art. You will be able to appreciate a variety of art objects, sculptures and modern installations.

Next, we head towards the cozy park named after Martiros Saryan, an outstanding artist and master of color. An exhibition and sale of paintings by contemporary painters is held in Saryan Park.

Afterwards, we will visit the church, which is hidden among multi-storey residential buildings. The chapel was built in the IX-X centuries on the grave of the Holy Apostle Ananias.

We will head to one of the most famous and significant architectural landmarks, the Yerevan Opera House.

Next, we will take a walk along Northern Avenue and look into the paradise for creators, where the guys connected the seemingly incongruous. The creativity of the XXI century exists there in the interiors of the XIX century. In addition to the art gallery and creative laboratories, vintage boutiques and cafes are open in the Art Quarter. Anyone can go inside, chat with the artists, evaluate their work, buy an original piece or just sit and drink coffee with dessert in a cozy courtyard.

And now we will go to the heart of Yerevan – Republic Square. You will penetrate into the secrets of the monumental architecture of the Soviet era – you will hear the story of its creation. It is a place where history, culture and modernity merge into one magnificent ensemble.

To taste the capital of Armenia, we will go to the Ararat factory, where you will have a tour of the museum, which is also an operating aging workshop of the plant. At the end, you will have a tasting of ARARAT cognacs.
