Cascade Complex

The Yerevan Grand Staircase, a huge Soviet unfinished project, was originally intended to connect the cascading waterfalls and stepped gardens. There are five terraces with flower beds, fountains and pools, which can be reached by escalators. On the terraces, you can enjoy the beautiful views of the entire Yerevan and Mount Ararat. The stairs began to be built in the 1980s. Due to the Armenian earthquake, the disintegration of the Soviet Union, and the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict, the entire project was suspended. The top part has not been completed, but it does not affect its magnificence and unique Soviet socialist architectural aesthetics.
Lake Sevan

About 70 kilometers from Yerevan by car. Free attractions. There is also a monastery. We took a cruise, 3 people 10,000 dram, about 60 yuan a person. There were no people in the past that day, which was equivalent to chartering a boat. Climbing to the top of the mountain is a monastery.

Sevan Monastery

Sevan in Armenia is the closest region to Georgia. There are not many people here, and even fewer tourists, which makes it full of exploration. The architectural style here is Caucasian.
Echmiadzin Monastery
长脸张少侠
【Echmiadzin Cathedral】
In the main cathedral of Echmiadzin, the Armenian Apostolic Church has preserved a piece of wood, which is said to be a fragment of Noah's Ark found by a saint in the mountains in the 4th century. It is more than 1,700 years old, and it is the only place in the world that claims to have a fragment of Noah's Ark. I have read many guides and heard that there are very few people who have come to this church and seen the fragments. Today I was lucky enough to see it.
