Echmiadzin – Zvartnots Tour

Description

Echmiadzin is the spiritual center of Armenia and one of the most important places for discovering the history of Christianity in the country. It is home to the Mother Cathedral and the residence of the Catholicos of All Armenians, surrounded by ancient churches whose history goes back many centuries.

The tour includes the Mother Cathedral of Echmiadzin, as well as the churches of St. Hripsime and St. Gayane, before continuing to the impressive ruins of Zvartnots Cathedral.
