I am pleased to invite you on a magnificent journey to explore the ancient astronomical observatory of Karahunge, Devil's Bridge, and the enigmatic ancient cave city of Khndzoresk. This adventure will be conducted in a state-of-the-art Mercedes-Benz vehicle with unparalleled comfort and luxury, along with premium service offerings designed to enhance your experience.
The excursion commences at 09:00 from the designated location. Nestled amidst the Syunik region, the ancient astronomical observatory known as Karahunge stands at an elevation of 1800 meters, adjacent to the city of Sisian. Comprising over two hundred thirty stones, or alternatively referred to as Zorats Karer (Stone Army), this architectural marvel boasts a history spanning beyond five millennia. Remarkably comparable to its British counterpart, Stonehenge, Karahunge offers a captivating blend of historical intrigue, celestial observation, and serene landscapes ideal for nature enthusiasts and hikers alike.
In close proximity to the Tatev ropeway lies the enchanting Devil's Bridge, a naturally formed 30-meter structure that traverses through a labyrinthine system of rock caverns accessible only with specialized equipment. This geological wonder attracts both local revelers seeking rejuvenating waters and adventurous souls eager to uncover hidden depths beneath the surface.
Finally, the picturesque ancient cave city named Khndzoresk, meaning "Apple," finds itself nestled within the vicinity of the aforementioned village, approximately fifteen kilometers north of the city of Goris. This remarkable settlement thrives within the confines of intricately carved rock formations, showcasing a remarkable level of defense capability and strategic importance throughout the ages. Ascending towards the city, visitors can traverse a breathtakingly scenic suspension bridge, offering panoramic vistas of the surrounding landscape. Inside the city walls, one can venture into ancient cave dwellings inhabited by families, schools, and even the historic church. This exploration promises a wealth of insights and unforgettable memories.
