Overview of the tour in Yerevan

Tour route: Yerevan

I Point
Matenadaran was built in 1920 and is one of the largest repositories of ancient manuscripts in the world (more than 17 thousand). It is located at the end of M. Mashtots central street in Yerevan. In front of the building are the monuments of Mesrop Mashtots (creator of the Armenian alphabet) and other great Armenian historians and philosophers. Inside you will see a majestic museum with a huge number of ancient documents about various countries.

II Point
Saint Gregory the Illuminator сathedral was built in 2001 to commemorate the 1700th anniversary of the adoption of Christianity in Armenia and is the largest cathedral in Yerevan and in Armenia itself. Inside you will see a huge hall for services, as well as fine architecture of Armenian architects. The church itself is located in front of the Trade Center "Russia", on Tigran Mets Avenue.

III Point
The Great Fortress of Erebuni was built by the Urartian king Argishti in 782 B.C. and became the first architectural monument from where the construction of the capital Yerevan began. The archaeological discovery was made during the Soviet Union and became the fact that Yerevan is older than Rome itself.
