Yerevan Cascade
The Yerevan Cascade is a landmark complex in the capital of Armenia. This giant staircase, built into the hillside, connects the city center with Victory Park at the top. Multiple platforms are linked by hundreds of steps, rising along the city's main axis. Today, it serves as a public space for locals to walk and relax, and also attracts visitors from around the world who come specifically to see it. It is like an open-air art museum itself. The plaza at the bottom features a statue of its visionary, the architect Tamanyan, while fountains and courtyards are dotted along the platforms, and contemporary sculptures like Botero's "Black Cat" are displayed in the open air. Inside, it houses the exhibition halls of the Cafesjian Center for the Arts. As you ride the escalators through it, you can also see collections by artists such as Andy Warhol and Chagall along the way.Armenia · Yerevan
Lake Sevan
Lake Sevan is located on a plateau in eastern Armenia, with an altitude of approx. 1,900m, making it one of the premier alpine freshwater lakes in the Caucasus region. The lake basin is surrounded by mountains, creating the open water surface and mountainous backdrop characteristic of highland lakes. The lake water has a blue-green hue, and on clear days, the expansive lake surface creates distinct color layers with the surrounding mountains and sky. The lakeshore features diverse environments such as sandy beaches, wetlands, grasslands, and mountains, and the lake area is also an important habitat for various aquatic species and migratory birds.Armenia · Sevan

Garni Temple
Garni Temple is a Hellenistic temple in Armenia and the easternmost intact Hellenistic temple in the world. The temple was built in the 1st century, during the era of Roman Emperor Nero and Armenian King Tiridates I. The original structure was destroyed in the earthquake of 1679, and what visitors see today was reconstructed by archaeologists during the Soviet era under Brezhnev, using many architectural components scattered on the site. There are many other historical sites around the temple, such as the ruins of a Roman bathhouse in the distance to the southwest, which still preserves a mosaic featuring a sea goddess.Armenia · Garni

What travellers say about Bagratashen
KajiurasakurahioFebruary 3, 2025
5.0
It is about 70 kilometers from Yerevan by car. It is a free attraction. There is also a monastery. We took a cruise ship, which cost 10,000 drams for 3 people, about 60 yuan per person. There were not many people when we went there that day, which was equivalent to chartering a boat. Climb to the top of the mountain to find the monastery.

加尼神庙是按照希腊式的建筑模式而修建的一座神庙，是亚美尼亚前基督教时期建筑的代表作。加尼神庙到今天都是世界上位置最靠东的希腊式神庙。原建筑在1679年的地震中被毁，今天游客看到的是苏联勃列日涅夫时代考古学界复原的建筑，在复原过程中使用了很多散落在原地的建筑构件。
