Gyumri kept its 19th-century streets when Yerevan rebuilt, and walking them is most of the point of going. The route also includes the Armenian Catholic Cathedral, one of the newer religious landmarks of Gyumri. By visiting the Gyumri Urban Life Museum (Dzitoghtsyan), you will get acquainted with the daily life, traditions and history of old Gyumri. A stop is also planned near the Black Fortress, one of the city's most famous monuments. Built in 1834, it is listed among Gyumri's historical and cultural monuments. Walking along the streets, you will pass by many old buildings and feel the spirit of 19th-century architecture. Two hundred and sixty kilometres there and back, which makes for a long but unhurried day.
