Karahundj (Armenia's Stonehenge)

Reviewed By hayks2021

One of the oldest places of civilization on earth. The place that people have built to observe the stars, planets, the Universe over 7500 years ago. Just a unique place, with its energy, a mystery, an amazing name, which is consonant with Wiltshire Stonehenge (there are quite a few hypotheses that they have much in common and a very close connection).

A short walk to a very beautiful waterfall, locally named ‘The mermaid’s hair’. Highly recommended. Bring a towel and have a dip!

Medieval Goris Cave Dwellings

Reviewed By AndrewTEllis - Cheadle, United Kingdom

What a fantastic place! Can't believe people lived here right up to 1960. 425 steps (I counted them) down, a walk across a swinging bridge (exciting) and a wander round the old village with cave dwellings, buildings and even a church. Warning: then 425 steps up! (But for the less fit, a taxi service is available).

Goris Rock Forest

Reviewed By mattfE8358YW - Butte, United States

We drove around east of Goris and found a bunch of great areas of rock forest. These are some of the most unique rock formations I've ever seen and it was a great time hiking through the rocks.
