The Monastery of Geghard
  • 1h 30m
Feel the mystery and go reveal the 4th-century Geghard monastery which is cut into the side of the rock. The name Geghard appeared because of the spear kept there, with the help of which the Roman soldier pierced the side of Christ. In Armenian, it is called “geghard”. Now the spear is situated in the museum of Etchmiadzin.

You will take part in holy liturgy.  On the way back to Yerevan enjoy the next Armenian 7th-century sanctuary Zvartnots, which means “Angels meeting”.
