Three monasteries along the Debed canyon, the oldest of them built in the 6th century. The sites are located about three hours' drive from Yerevan. The first stop is the majestic Haghpat Monastery, a 10th-century complex where the famous ashugh Sayat-Nova lived and worked at the end of the 18th century. Next, you will visit Sanahin Monastery, where the skill of 10th-century Armenian masters can be seen in distinctive architectural solutions designed to help protect the complex from possible earthquakes. Both monastic complexes are included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. The final highlight of the tour is Odzun Monastery, a 6th-century monument surrounded by the picturesque mountain ranges of Lori. A full day on the road, broken by long stops rather than short ones.
