Debed Canyon is a silent yet magnificent custodian to Armenia’s storied past. You’ll have a rich selection of cultural and historical sites to discover, a lot of which you can include in one day! Here are just a few of the places in the region you can add to your itinerary to get a glimpse of Lori’s artistic and spiritual legacy:

UNESCO World Heritage Sites & More: Wander through the impressive monasteries of Haghpat and Sanahin – two of the most significant historical and architectural monuments of medieval Armenia. Kobayr Monastery is a unique experience, as well – like stepping into Narnia after a short hike up the mountain. 

Art & Culture: Peak into the fascinating life of beloved Armenian poet at the Tumanyuan House Museum, time travel to when two brothers from the village of Sanahin changed the world at Mikoyan Brothers Museum, get to know the visual styles and palettes of prominent Armenian artists at the Alaverdy Art Gallery, and sate your inner vintage Soviet collector’s appetite at the Matchbox Label Museum. 

The list goes on; ask our concierge for more information:
