Exceptional bivouac behind this small church, with a plunging view of the canyon

Part of the old road to Yerevan. Mostly nice packed gravel and grass, low grade ascent from North side. Orchids in Spring. Water source at the North end with a small shelter.

Affordable, clean, free WiFi, shared kitchen and lounge area. You can book it by visiting https://www.tumanyan.town/hostel

Unique and affordable hostel in the very centre of the Debed Canyon, pretty much perfect as a basecamp for hikes in the area, especially if you're on a budget. Find it on the usual booking sites.

The monasteries of Haghpat and Sanahin were both founded after 960 by Queen Khosrowanush, who built them "for the welfare" of her sons Gurgen and Smbat. Haghpat and Sanahin were jointly declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Although on the one hand they were two independent monasteries, historically they are sibling monasteries with complementary ensembles. The Haghpat Monastery was a fortified monastery that towered above the town of the same name and was visible from afar. Embedded in the mountain landscape, the complex appears to be growing up from the earth. The oldest sacred building is the Holy Cross Church, also called the "Church of the Holy Sign", in Armenian: Nshan Church. Its outer facade, decorated with strict ornaments, signs and writings, is crowned by a sculptural motif. This shows the two sons of the royal monastery founder with the surprising headgear beret and turban; they hold the church in their hands. But there is no “artistic” trace of the actual founder of the monastery here or in Sanahin.

Beautiful vantage point with mystical aura.

Founded in the 10th century, Haghpat Monastery has remained largely in its original condition, apart from minor renovations in the 11th and 12th centuries. It is considered an outstanding example of medieval Armenian architecture. The monastery is surrounded by a ring of walls with round towers. Numerous artistically engraved cross stones and episcopal tombs are distributed over the entire area of the monastery, which today belongs to the Armenian Apostolic Church. The mighty free-standing bell tower can be seen from afar. The whole monastic complex at Haghpat is an impressive and very well preserved example of the unique medieval Armenian art and architecture. Haghpat Monastery and the monasteries at Sanahin have been jointly inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
