The building is one of a kind and can not be missed visiting when you are in Baku. The entry ticket is 15 mannat and I would suggest skip buying the car museum ticket of 10 mannat. Inside its more of a Art and architecture museum which might be loved by artistic tourist but not to attractive for a common tourist. Its a symbolic place in baku and you should not miss it.

The Haider Aliyev Center is a beautiful museum — truly a masterpiece of modern architecture. Inside, it’s full of fascinating art and crafts ranging from historical artifacts to contemporary works. If you’re an art lover, this place is a must-visit. There are separate sections dedicated to different art forms, and in Basement 3, you’ll find a collection of vintage cars that’s absolutely stunning. Each car is a piece of history, and you’ll love exploring them. Overall, it’s a perfect blend of culture, creativity, and elegance — a place where every corner has something to admire.

A carefully designed center that displays different styles of art. You can wander around for about two hours. It seems like a whole. This was my first visit to this place and I felt amazingly impressed. I highly recommend to everyone who comes to visit Baku. This puts their credit in visiting this wonderful place.

This place needs a deep review and I dont think any review will do justice to the place for inside and outside desires. The outside designs flows as it its going with the inside theme so we'll that you get amazed. Must visit . The centre of dedicated to the amazing leader Mr Heydar Ali who played a crucial goal in the countries making. The architect did even justice to bring back the history in systematic flow , late Ms Zah Hadid made , designed this marvel. When you walk to the stairs you will feel a sense of flow that you can not comprehend . The shiny floors give an illusions of another dimension

Beautiful building and interesting display of elements with cultural and historical significance. It’s a huge building and if you are with kids or seniors you may need the full day. The only criticism is that the building and surrounding is bot very accessible with people with mobility issues like seniors or families with strollers. For example the building entrance has very steep ramps for visitors on feet. Or stairs are very large but elevator are tiny.

Was super interesting! Saw expositions of miniatures, dolls, carpets and retro automobiles. Architecture of the building is blow minded! Unfortunately in cafe the was no food, only drinks.

A very well designed center. The exhibitions are in different styles and can attract everyone's attention in terms of variety of subjects. The musical instruments section really caught my attention, it was the best area I've seen. You can tour for almost 4 hours. The classic car exhibition is very nice, the only problem is that the -3 floor is too hot. The museum has lockers. There is a suitable place for bags and suitcases.

Baku Boulevard is a beautiful stretch along the Caspian — clean, spacious, and full of life. By day you can explore spots like Little Venice and enjoy the modern architecture, while at night the views and lights are amazing with people relaxing, eating, and music in the air. It’s very well kept (even the subways under the highway are spotless). Just a tip — watch out for a guy underground with a weight machine who can be pushy. On the boulevard itself, there are fun things like live chess matches and even quirky shops, I loved the designer cotton candy stand.

The Baku Boulevard area offers a captivating blend of modernity and cultural heritage. Strolling along the waterfront, you can admire the stunning views of the Caspian Sea. The area is home to beautifully designed parks, inviting spaces for relaxation and leisure. The presence of modern architectural marvels enhances the boulevard's unique charm. It is a great place to spend quality time.

Beautiful walk must try. Best place for a day to spend. Must respect their culture this whole place can be covered with a day walk. Find good places for food, amusement and site seeing. Must visit.

Well its located in baku around 750 meters from old city, good walk away for friends and families, kids play area as well and you can have several options for outdoor snacks and some cafe restaurants also available. Good atmosphere and not crowded in early evening time. Bus stops also near by.

Baku Boulevard is one of those rare places that blends peaceful seaside charm with modern energy. Stretching along the Caspian Sea, this promenade serves as Baku’s heartbeat, a place both locals and visitors flock to day and night. Green, welcoming vibe: The boulevards, gardens, fountains, and tree-lined paths offer a lush escape right in the city center  . Iconic attractions: The Ferris Wheel (Baku Eye) offers a breathtaking view over the bay and city skyline  . The Carpet Museum’s architecture, designed to look like a rolled-up rug is simply stunning  . Little Venice is charming and romantic, especially if you take a ride in a gondola. The boulevard hosts concerts, outdoor events, street performances, art installations, you’ll feel the city’s creative pulse  . Perfect for everyone: Whether you’re into jogging, cycling, people-watching, or just lounging on a bench with a coffee, there’s something here for every pace. Lots of cafés, outdoor restaurants, and shops line the promenade great for relaxing while you take in the views. Evening walks are magical—lights reflecting on the water, the Ferris wheel glowing, a gentle sea breeze. Definitely a mood-lifter. All in all, Baku Boulevard feels both timeless and alive, a perfect place for a stroll, a moment of calm, or just soaking up the soul of the city.

A beautiful spot for a morning sunrise run. The park is extremely serene and peaceful early in the morning. The sunrise view here is absolutely beautiful and it shouldn’t be missed.

Place is superb, deserves 5 star, but the people here are rude, cheaters and emotionless. Your experience will start right from the taxi driver, who will never intend to return the change money. No public washroom, paid washrooms cost double as soon they see foreigners. Overhyped country of rude people, smoking day and night with loud music on car.

This station will help you reach both city centre and beautiful old city. Once in a year you may see old trains exhibition inside.

Four vending machines were unable to issue the temporary card, only the 2 manat permanent card. No credit card accepted which was a hassle for tourist who spends a brief time in Baku.

I was amazed and astonished by the architecture and structural of this metro station... replica of Louvre Museum in Paris. For 1st timer, Baku Card or BakiKart is worth 5AZN then you can load for 2AZN and you can keep it as a souvenir. Per ride is 0.30AZN... Love the escalator part, very long and narrow which I felt I am falling and take more or less 5 mins. There is an English signages aside from local signages. Btw, taking pictures is prohibited esp in the flatform area.

Only 2 manat for Baku card. I think 0.3 per journey. Nice station with the lovely old city in the background and a doner place outside.

A beautiful old city of Baku, cobblestone streets, souvernir shopping, cafés. Definitely a must visit if you are in Baku

Baku old city. Very beautiful area to walk around and enjoy your day.

This is a fascinating open-air site just outside Baku. The ancient rock carvings scattered across the stones make you feel like you’re walking through history. What’s even more interesting is that this whole area was once under the Caspian Sea — you can still spot coral-like dents and the raw exposed sea bed stretching out in front of you. The landscape itself is striking, with its flat, square-topped hills as a backdrop. Add in the sweeping views of the Caspian, and it’s not just historic but also a beautiful spot for some amazing pictures.

Another UNESCO World heritage site. Exploring Gobustan was a journey into the soul of humanity. Amidst the semi-desert, over 6,000 ancient petroglyphs etched into the rocks tell stories of lives lived thousands of years ago. As I traced the intricate carvings depicting hunters, dancers, and celestial symbols , I was struck by the remarkable talent of these early artists. Without formal education, they captured their world with such precision and emotion. Standing there, surrounded by these timeless expressions, I felt a deep connection to our shared human heritage. A truly humbling experience.

It was ok but felt very touristy and a long journey from Baku with not much to see. It's interesting and amazing historically, and good that they charge to help protect the site. Surrounded by lots of drivers trying to tell you it's not safe and they will hassle you as you drive there, just don't stop and say no. Carry on the smooth tarmac all the way to the parking and don't fall for their lies. The majority doing tickets was very friendly and helpful

Wonderful experience, really gives you a sense of the place and history behind the land , it's still so well preserved that walking through those rocks take you thousands of year back in history. Must experience You need tickets acquired from your museum tour down the road - so definitely keep those handy, don't throw them away

Gobustan National Park was really interesting. The ancient rock carvings and the landscape are unique and worth seeing.The museum is small but informative. Good day trip also with mud volcano and toy have a nice trip its 1 hour drive from baku. Overall a graet day trip.

Its a marvel where you breadline the centuries old rock art, a form of communication and limestone that were used for alerting for danger or other indicators. You can comprehend the caspain sea was once at that level of rocks and now has receded . Hire a guide so you can know about the place .

Here we can see stone painting on various mountain rocks which wil be explained by guide without guide it’s a waste of time

The Shaki Khan Palace is beautifully preserved, with incredible paintings on the ceilings and walls. The Shabaki windows and woodwork are truly stunning. We'd definitely suggest getting a guide (additional 10 AZN), it really adds to the experience. Tickets are 9 AZN for adults, and kids are free.

A really opulent place. Located in the historic city of Sheki near the Greater Caucasus Mountains The Sheki Khan's Palace is an 18th-century architectural masterpiece built as the summer residence of the Sheki khans, notably commissioned by Muhammad Husayn Khan Mushtaq and completed around 1797. It is renowned for its exquisite craftsmanship, including intricate frescoes, miniature paintings, and the unique "shebeke" stained glass windows made without glue or nails! The palace is a two-storey building with six rooms, four corridors, and two mirrored balconies, covering about 300 square meters. It reflects the wealth of the region from silk trade and silkworm breeding during the 18th and 19th centuries. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It’s whole area of the palace and a museum and some workshops of local art. Also a church. It’s a long drive to this place from Baku. This is beautifully preserved and well maintained. Worth the visit

Interesting place, we opted for the good English guide who was very informative and interesting. The building isn’t as impressive as the other Palace but nice if you have the time. Lunch hour 13-14:00

The Palace of Sheki Khans, Sheki: The simple, down to earth but seriously ornate palace for the times palace is the only reason why we endured the long, long ride to Sheki. It finally earned its shiny spot in the UNESCO list in 2019. Persian architects designed this. The breathtaking bits are the light pouring through the venetian coloured glass windows, intricately pieced together, 1 glass by 1 glass piece in a lattice-work, each imported from Venice. Frescoes of the 18th century tell all sorts of symbolic stories. #eatstylishtravelstylish

Amazing glass mosaics, but entry price 4.5EU too expensive for such a small place, particularly in AZY

Not a lot to see, especially for the price. And photos aren't allowed which is always a red flag for me! Not worth it. They should combine the tickets into one

Hay piedras grandes con agujeros. Algunos científicos piensan que este lugar es una antigua construcción de observación de estrellas. Otros dicen que los agujeros eran necesarios para transportar estas piedras. De todos modos el lugar es espectacular y vale la pena visitarlo. Puedes imaginar cómo la gente se reunía aquí hace milenios, hablaba, bailaba, cantaba y miraba las estrellas imaginando el futuro.

I adore the highest falls in Armenia. A great place to visit during summer and autumn. There are no huge crowd who visit the falls.

Jermuk Waterfall is a beautiful waterfall located in the Vayots Dzor Province of Armenia. It is a popular tourist destination, and is known for its stunning scenery and refreshing waters. The waterfall is made up of two cascades, the upper cascade is 56 meters high and the lower cascade is 25 meters high. The total height of the waterfall is 81 meters The best time to visit Jermuk Waterfall is during the spring or summer, when the weather is warm and sunny. The waterfall is also a popular spot for hiking and picnicking. There are several trails that lead to the waterfall, and the hike is relatively easy. Overall, Jermuk Waterfall is a beautiful and refreshing place to visit. It is a great spot for hiking, picnicking, and enjoying the natural beauty of Armenia.

Really lovely experience… deep within the gorge in Jermuk you will find this stunning 35 metre waterfall. There is a lovely walkway also where you can enjoy the stream below

The "Mermaid's Hair" waterfall's mineral-rich waters stay at 38°C year-round. Locals swear drinking from the upper springs helps digestion (the sulfur smell takes getting used to). Don't miss the Soviet-era drinking pavilion with its ornate faucets dispensing different mineral compositions.

A very picturus, beautiful place. A must to visit, while in Jermuk.

Nice place to visit. It's great to see how water makes it's own path.

very good place.. nice waterfall. I recommended to see everyone

A beautiful monastery among red rocks, especially beautiful at sunset. The main feature is a two-story church with a steep staircase, where everyone climbs for photos. But now you can't climb the stairs. The road is mountainous, the views are beautiful.

This sits on top of my heart for all the things we visited in Armenia. It is the nature, the green and red mountain slopes that surround the monastery. The view from the top was splendid!

Noravank should be on top of your list when visiting Armenia. The setting, surrounded by beautiful mountains, colorful and still, the atmosphere of the monastery perched on a cliff up above it - it is absolutely mesmerizing! Weekends see a lot of people and school kids, so plan accordingly. Other than your religious fulfillment, there are a ton of photo ops that will make your eye pause... A must visit!

Noravank is absolutely stunning! The church complex is beautifully preserved and set against breathtaking red cliffs. The road leading there is just as impressive—winding through a dramatic canyon with amazing views the whole way. A peaceful and unforgettable place to visit!

Location: Amaghu River gorge, near Yeghegnadzor, Vayots Dzor Province, Armenia. Founded: 12th century, flourished mainly during the 13th–14th centuries. Landscape: Surrounded by dramatic red cliffs, making it one of the most picturesque monasteries in Armenia.

Located high in the mountains, give an incredible view from above. Definitly you want a tour guide, as there is so much history and meaning behind..top view is amazing 🤩 structure is also different..its far from city so u need a private car 🚗 with a guide..

The Noravank site is our favourite of all these spiritual sites in Armenia. It might not have the same historical importance as others do. But the location as such is the most pristine. Already the access road leading through the gorge is pretty impressive. The site itself, slightly up the slope at the end of the valley, surrounded by the red rocks of the surrounding hills, is impressive.

It was nice trip from Yerevan to the lake. The most beautiful thing is the scenery and the walking around. Some good restaurant on the edge of the lake. I had great lunch of trout fish, fresh salads, and fresh bread. The other cofes or shops around the lake are not that good, neither the service. Some hotel if you decide to stay overnight. Unfortunately no good toilet for visitors.

A large and beautiful lake, we camped and slept for seven nights in different places around this lake, there are very good and free places to pitch tents but there are no facilities and you have to bring the necessary equipment with you. The height here is higher than Yerevan and also because of the lake it is a good option for camping in the warm seasons.

Beautiful place to visit, lake is clean, atmosphere is fresh. There are locals selling different unique gifts and some local nibbles. There are also restaurants in the area as well. Worth the visit

Loved it... perfect place for a Family/friends Day out.. very calming weather, winds, Activities, Food .. Everything You need

The water is clean but cold. Quite windy in June. Beautiful views, places to relax.

One of the most iconic and beautiful places in Armenia! Lake Sevan is breathtaking — the vast blue water surrounded by mountains is a sight you won’t forget. It’s a great place to relax, swim in summer, or enjoy fresh local fish from the lakeside restaurants. Sevanavank Monastery on the hill offers stunning panoramic views and a touch of history. Whether you’re into nature, culture, or just a peaceful escape, Lake Sevan has something for everyone. A must-see when visiting Armenia!

A good place to relax and eat good food! And still very cold even its summer! 🥶

The Monastery of St. Nino in Georgia is a beautiful site surrounded by stunning natural landscapes. The monastery features charming gardens filled with local flora, providing a peaceful retreat for visitors. The stone architecture blends harmoniously with the lush greenery, creating a serene atmosphere perfect for leisurely strolls. The well-maintained paths make it easy to explore the grounds, where you can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding hills and valleys. The combination of nature and the monastery's tranquil environment makes it an ideal spot for anyone looking to connect with the beauty of the outdoors. Overall, it’s a delightful destination for nature lovers and those seeking a quiet escape.

One of my favourite monasteries in Georgia. It's very beautiful, and has lovely views. Tended by the nuns there is a beautiful garden with different types of flowers. Highly recommended Entry is free. There is a a charge for parking.

This place was beautiful from the outside and the grounds were immaculate. Photos weren't allowed inside and there was nothing really special to see (very similar to other churches and scaffolding obscuring the views at present). Toilets were good quality and cafe was reasonably priced with nice cold drinks to refresh.

Great sight. You.can walk from Sighnaghi, although the walk back is uphill. It was busy when we went on a Sunday, but peacefully. The small church on the side of the main path to the big church has amazing murals. Shoulders and knees need to be covered. There are scarves at the entrance for women to wear Great views too

Amazing centuries old monastery. Beautiful gardens, amazing view from back side of the new church. The smaller church despite its age, is very well preserved and maintained. You can still feel the medieval age atmosphere there. ITS FORBIDDEN TO TAKE PHOTOS INSIDE THE OLD CHURCH, respect the place where you’re going.

This monastery is an absolute must-see, featuring some truly incredible historic architecture and a deeply calming setting. The highlight is certainly the beautiful surrounding garden, offering a peaceful contrast to the impressive church where the historical monument of St. Nino is revered.

Monastery of St. Nino – A Serene Escape in Signagi Nestled among tall cypress trees and perched above a sweeping valley, the Monastery of St. Nino in Bodbe is a truly serene and soul-soothing place. The views from the monastery are breathtaking, offering a panoramic landscape that you could gaze at for hours. The gardens are beautifully maintained, filled with vibrant flowers in full bloom and a fascinating variety of unique trees. It feels like a peaceful retreat tucked away in nature, radiating calmness and spiritual tranquility. Right near the entrance, there are a couple of small eateries where you can grab a quick bite—perfect after the scenic drive to reach this peaceful spot. Whether you're visiting for its religious significance, its beauty, or just some quiet reflection, this place is a must-see in Signagi.

A long wall similar to the Great Wall of China, built to defend the city from invaders. A walk up the wall and its watch towers gives a panoramic view of the city of Sighnaghi. Fun walk and great pics for the memory.

Went early so there was no.one.as no day trippers. Views are ok, but if you stay in the area a couple of views you get much better views from any monasteries. We climbed the 2 towers, not.really necessary. I would spend no more than 20 mins of you have spare time.

The short part of the wall that is open for walking is nothing special. Local authorities must also clean up (weeds, litter). The two towers you can go into are also littered and dirty. There is a long part of the wall on the opposite hill which is not accessible - why not? It would make a lovely walk around.

The wall itself is pretty underwhelming when you finally get to it, as there isn't anything especially impressive to see—it's mostly just a long stretch of old stone. It gets three stars for its historical significance, but visually and as an experience, it's just okay.

It was okay — nothing bad, nothing amazing either. The place is fine if you’re just looking for a decent stop, but it didn’t particularly stand out for me. Not something I’d go out of my way for, but not something I regret visiting either.

Great views over the valley, not too difficult access. Can be crowded and narrow pathway on top can be bit challenging to walk when big groups arrive. Suggest to go early to beat the crowds.

Dont forget to climb the Turrets of the wall. Great view from there. Nice cobbled streets give a great European village feel.

Amazing church cut right into the cliff. Carvings and an altar still used today. Surrounded by beautiful natural landscapes. Highly recommend 🇨🇦

I was delighted to visit this place. It gave me goosebumps to think about how the monastery was constructed, perched on the mountain, and the way water flows inside it – something I’ll never forget. It’s truly a magnificent marvel and a wonderful place to experience.

Absolutely breathtaking place! The Geghard Monastery is partly carved into the rock and surrounded by dramatic cliffs — it feels both ancient and sacred. You can feel the silence and coolness of the stone halls, even when many visitors are around. A must-see in Armenia — spiritual, peaceful, and unforgettable.

I visited this church in May. Geghard Church is located in a mountainous and lush area, with an open courtyard and surrounding nature that create a pleasant atmosphere for visitors. The church building is simple, and the main halls provide enough space for visitors. Inside, there are some small rooms that are dark and somewhat eerie, but they can be interesting for those who appreciate historical sites. The walking paths around the church are easy and enjoyable, and the fresh air makes the visit relaxing.

The exterior part was under restoration when we had visited but like every Monastery in Armenia this one too is located in a very scenic place with mountains all around and a stream flowing nearby. The interior was so calm and peaceful with beautiful sculptures.

Amazing place, a must see. The name implies the monastery of the spear. It is believed the roman spear that pearced the side if Jesus Christ was brought here by one of his Apostles (St Thaddeus).

An amazing, serene spot that nests inside a valley, surrounded by mountains, offering spiritually and owe. Don't miss out on the chance to visit this beautiful monastery

This is a must-visit when going to Armenia. Beautiful structure, crowded but visitors are respectful to let you take pictures. There’s this area used to be Roman bathing area and our guide has explained to us what is was and how it came to be, fascinating history!

Garni Temple was amazing and the architecture was super..the winter❄️is perfect to visit here and to take alot of photos. We enjoy a lot and the structure of the place. One of the best place to visit in Armenia! 🇦🇲 The place is not much crowded, toilets 🚽 is available at the entrance..You can also buy souvenir outside,Must visit! You will definitely enjoy..you want to take a guide tour with aprivate 🚗.it is far from city 🏙️

Only preserved pagan temple in Armenia, built in 76AD has historical and cultural value. Surrounded by picturesque view of Azat River and symphony of stones

The temple itself is small, but it's nice to roam the grounds. The landscape around is incredible, I can't capture it on camera. You have to use your own eyes.

Must visit. The temple is beautiful but the view is excellent. If you catch sunset, that is quite memorable.

If coming to Armenia, Garni Temple is a must visit. We found it to be one of the best places that we saw in the country. The entrance fee was 1500 dram each, but it was worth it. Surrounded by mountains and beautiful scenery, the Garni Temple sits in the middle- a magnificent structure. The landscape around is wonderful, unable to capture with a camera. There are many tourists coming with a tour group, so it can get quite busy. We had a pleasant experience by walking around the complex, our guide giving us 30 minutes to explore.

Beautiful beautiful location, since we visited in Feb the place looked absolutely mesmerizing and like a winter wonderland. There was no wait time for tickets and place wasn’t that crowded too. Can spend up-to an hour max there. Views are amazing from every corner and the temple is massive. Must visit for some really good pictures and memories. Few souvenirs and coffee shops are available outside. Free washroom available too.

Nicely situated on one end of the ridge of the peninsula, overlooking the village below and the lake on either side. The churches are nice, but don't stand out compared to others in Armenia or Georgia.

Really beatifull place. The road was good in general. In two or three places there were small potholes. But they were not a problem even for small hatchback. Overall, I was very satisfied.

Nestled in a stunning spot embraced by Lake Sevan, I truly appreciated this breathtaking location. The site is well-designed, offering great joy and serving as an excellent place to explore ancient architectural marvels, all while being surrounded by the natural splendour of Lake Sevan.

The monastery is beautiful, the view of the lake is excellent. The climb is a bit tiring, but not difficult. If you are in Sevan, drop in. Behind the monastery you can walk up the hill with beautiful views of the lake.

Very busy but free to enter. Make sure to take your hat off and cover yourself as a woman. Small area and crowded on the weekends. Many places to relax and enjoy the view at the top of the hill.

Sevanavank Monastery is a nice place to visit, especially for the view of Lake Sevan. The steps up are a bit steep but manageable, and the area is clean and well maintained. There are several small shops near the entrance selling paintings, local crafts, and souvenirs at reasonable prices. You can also see a few artists painting outdoors, which gives the place a lively feel. Overall, it’s a good stop if you’re in the Sevan area, easy to reach, plenty of parking, and a great spot for photos.

Just a beautiful viewpoint with some amazing history. Walk the 500ish steps to the top for amazing views of lake Sevan, explore the ruins of the accommodation and the surrounding buildings. The monastery itself is beautiful with cross stones from the area held in the gavit (effectively the atrium). See the beautiful and historical buildings as you walk around what is now a peninsula (the monastery used to be an island). Definitely worth the visit

Very nice, good wine selection, you can’t enter without tour guide, even thou tour guide doesn’t give a lot of info, just basic about this place and it leasts 5-10 min, but overall very happy with this place

totally tourist place not so old as well just promoting business to tourists. I didn't got the winery vibes better to visit other local winery. This one is expensive as well. not worthy.

Take a tour including wine tasting. It is very interesting even if you are experienced in wine-making, because the traditional Georgian way is very special. Our guide was so friendly that I have to buy some samples of special dry red wine, not cheap.

I visited Khareba winery. It's a network of tunnels spanning 8 kilometers where wine is stored. I recommend taking a tour with a tasting to immerse yourself in the culture and history of winemaking in Georgia. Our excellent guide, Alex, made the experience even more enjoyable. It's chilly in the tunnels, so be sure to grab one of the free blankets provided at the entrance.

That's quite a unique place: a wine cellar in an artificial tunnel. The temperature in the tunnel is almost stable during the year so it always feels comfortable to take a guided tour where you will hear some interesting facts about winemaking. Wine degustation is another service that you can get there and you will taste several kinds of Georgian wine, cheese, bread, and grapeseed oil produced by this company. The staff and the guides are very friendly and cheerful.

Not so great... Hospitality was not good. In the restaurant felt like we are not welcomed. They focused on some group that was arriving and forgot to treat the other customers nicely. Wines were not so tasty and the portions in the wine tasty were very small.

Great tour of the cave and wine tasting experience. This stood out among the wine experiences we’ve had in a short trip to Kakheti given the offerings and uniqueness of the cave itself, as well as the beautiful surroundings.

The view is nice but not as spectacular as you might expect. The church itself is new. The rest of the monastery is quite nice.

Very beautiful remote monetary that part of it is carved in the stone. There is a scenic hike up to it and than you go to see it inside. Near by there are beautiful and colorful dunes. There is a trail that you can take between them, the nature here is like magic. Also the whole region’s natural landscape is so different than other regions in Georgia , it makes the place special.

Remote location, access is limited to part of the monastery. Very pretty and impressive. Also, right opposite of the monastery there are mineral-rich mountains that have spectacular color differences. Very pretty!

It was a worth experience visiting here, the hike was a bit exhausting for me but in the end I enjoyed it. There are rainbow mountains next to the monastery which looks beautiful.

Great views from and around the monastery. There isn’t any tickets so its free to enter. Paths outside of the monastery are slippery so don’t go in sandles (a lot of people were there with crocs/sandles and had issues) and I also recommend taking long pants because there is a lot of weeds which are sharp and paths are narrow. But the view from up top are great! If you need water there is small monk shop near the monastery.

One of the most wonderful place I have visited so far! Extremely peaceful, especially if you visit the place at the non-peak tourist time. The drive from Tbilisi to David Gareji was as beautiful and scenic. We took the alternate route which was 20mins slower than the best route option showed in Google Maps, which turned out to be absolutely wonderful. No tickets required. Core memory! :)

Stunning views of spectacular hills. The drive to the monastery is all very accessible roads. No tickets needed to enter the monastery, but be aware that there is not much in the area, so it's recommended to bring drinks and snacks, (and 0,50 for the bathroom). For those who are a little agile, there is a small cave up the hill with an altar, but it's a little climb. The view of the monastery is great from that hill. (!) You might walk into some military since you're really close to the border, but everyone I walked into was really friendly. (!) Be aware there are lots of venomous snakes in the area, so watch your step if you go off trail.

We drove through the lush green forests of Dilijan and then walked 15 min through a scenic path to reach the old world charms of this Monastery complex. The location and the beautiful structure of the monastery were so stunning. Loved the apple blossoms all around. We also tried some local bread Gata and enjoyed the nature that surrounded us.

The journey through the tree lined roads is as enchanting as the peaceful monastic complex itself. While the historical beauty is immense, improved maintenance of the paid restrooms would perfect the visitor experience. Overall, it's an unforgettable escape into Armenia's timeless charm.

Wonderful old monastery complex with diverse premises overseeing some breathtaking valley and the mountains across it. You can also enjoy fresh water from a natural stream and delicious local bakery

Haghartsin Monastery – Dilijan ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful and peaceful monastery surrounded by forested mountains. Amazing architecture, calm atmosphere — a must-visit spot when you’re in Dilijan

Very special and old monastic complex in Tavush region in the middle of a forest. It is a place with peace and harmony with unique architectural style.

A well-maintained monastery complex which is still in operation. It's nicely situated in the forest of the Dilijan National Park. Parking can be slightly tricky on a busy day.

No words can fully describe the feeling of visiting Haghartsin Monastery. Surrounded by nature and history, the place carries a deep sense of respect and holy spirit that touches you the moment you arrive. We were blessed and fortunate to witness a ceremony dedicated to Mother Mary during our visit, which made the experience even more meaningful and unforgettable. The atmosphere was peaceful, spiritual, and filled with reverence. Haghartsin is not just a historical site — it is a place where faith, culture, and beauty come together. A must-visit for anyone who wishes to connect with Armenia’s spiritual heritage.

Good view from cable car in autumn. You can enjoy the colors of fall. Really nice. Nothing major to do once you reach to top apart from horse riding atv. But journey from bottom to top is awesome as its fall. Ropeway price 3000 AMD.

Great view from the ropeway in November, I was surprised how busy it was considering there was no skiing. The price was cheap, there was no que to get on the lift and there is activities available at the top but we came straight back down as we just went for the view. It takes about 15 mins as a round trip and is well worth visiting. I hope to come back here in the winter to ski!!

Great experience Price of cable car is accepted and logic for all Price of motors on top is over-price esp. For foreigners! Need to be adjusted Not all cable-cars working No suitable place on top for sitting, drinks with good view unfortunately! Hope to adjust it for future Generally is recommend

As someone else said, it is honestly a waste of money. You just reach the top to find nothing except activities that require more spending like quad and horse riding. Not even anywhere to sit except a sad little cafe. To get a better enjoyment or nature I didn’t even take the ropeway back down and walked instead using what in winter is the ski track. Very steep for walking but nice views

What a wonderful telefric! Beautiful views of ski town! When at the top, you can even see Mount Ararat! Overall, glad we did it. They only let you get off at the first station. You can't go all the way to the top of the second station in the fall. At the first station, there are ATVs, very expensive! They are rude too... There are also horse rides... Not sure on horse ride prices... But the ATVs are very expensive.

This place is suitable for an autumn outing with friends. There are no sights to see at the peak. ​I recommend combining this visit with a trip to the nearby Orthodox Church and a delicious restaurant.

Situated on the Eastern slope of Mount Teghenis, amid thick greenery is a super ride. Can't miss this tourist attraction

An impressive monastery. The cathedral is currently undergoing restoration - lots of scaffolding. ​Despite the construction, it's a very peaceful place. It makes for a great short stop if you're driving through the area. There is a small shop with monastery items. ​Important Info: - ​There is no entrance fee. - ​No photos/videos are allowed inside the monastery. - ​Dress respectfully (shoulders/knees covered). They provide trousers for men and long skirts for women at the entrance.

It is under rehabilitation. So sad that they can’t restore all the paintings inside due to financial issue. You can still feel the solemnity of Georgian Orthodox Church though.

Currently under renovation, so many areas were closed offand the church tower and much of the walls are covered in scaffolding. Church itself is very impressive, as are the graves and the gardens. It's still well worth visiting.

Currently under construction after the tornado incident a few years ago. No entrance fee, no photos inside the cathedral - there's a little shop right by the entrance where you can borrow wide pants for men, and a skirt for women (even if you have long pants). Scarfs are there too :)) -Except for the fresco of Sait Giorgi (St. George), there isn't much of the original frescoes inside. Do not attempt to speak to the monks, most of them have a vow of silence.

It was a great experience visiting here, but it’s a pity that the place is currently under renovation.

Visiting the historical Alaverdi Monastery was amazing. The territory is well taken care of. In the yard they have single vine plants of almost all Georgian grape varieties. We also booked a tour in a 11th century historical wine cellar in advance. Nana's presentation was very informative and interesting. Through the visit, we got to experience Georgian culture and its close ties to winemaking.

Worth seeing monestry-complex with historical wall around, but Not an absolutely must have to See.

It is located at a good place around main shopping streets.

Nothing special

(Translated by Google) The square itself has been put in order. There are not enough benches along the extreme Alley, along Pacheva Street. The whole impression is spoiled by the children's amusement park, there are 5-6 assorted cabins, like at a construction site, but there is minimal entertainment for children, even from the times of the USSR (it would be better if they installed a standard children's playground). (Original) Сам сквер привели в порядок. Не хватает скамеек по крайней Аллее, вдоль улицы Пачева. Всё впечатление портит парк детских аттракционов, стоит 5-6 разношёрстных бытовок, как на стройке, а вот развлечений для детей минимум, и времён СССР.( лучше бы стандартную детскую площадку поставили).

(Translated by Google) Concerts, plays, ballets and musical children's programs take place here. Nice room, nicely decorated. Recently the theater was renovated, they hung a large beautiful chandelier in the auditorium, and updated everything. The theater troupe puts on wonderful performances. Artists from other cities also come: you can see opera, ballet, operetta, and even a musical... (Original) Здесь проходят концерты, спектакли, балеты и музыкальные детские программы. Хороший зал, красиво оформлен. Недавно в театре был ремонт, там повесили большую красивую люстру в зрительном зале, всё обновили. Труппа театра ставит замечательные спектакли. Также приезжают артисты из других городов: можно увидеть и оперу, и балет, и оперетту, и даже мюзикл...

(Translated by Google) On the holiday of November 4, the last yellow maples in the whole city were found here! The photo shoot turned out great. A clean, beautiful square, with benches, children, a cozy place. (Original) В праздничный день 4 ноября нашли здесь последние на весь город желтые клены! Фотосессия получилась отменной. Чистый, красивый сквер, с лавочками, детишками, уютное место.

(Translated by Google) A place to relax, clean and calm. Honor and Glory to those who died in battles for our Motherland, the USSR. (Original) Место для отдыха, чисто и спокойно. Честь и Слава погибшим в боях за нашу Родину, СССР.

A heaven on earth 🌎, we took mini busses from Artvin, and we went for like an hour on the mountains. Up there many people are camping and there is a cafe and restaurant where you can buy whatever you need, it's a little bit expensive from the normal prices but not that much. Fishing in the lake is not allowed but you can book a tour with a small boat very nice place wish a wonderful relaxing view

Very beautiful place I would like to visit it every time

Larg lake with tourist attractions. Kids Playing yard . One restaurant with few menu meals.

Lovely lake and beautiful colorful trees!

(Translated by Google) The road conditions are poor, but it is really worth going. The environment is quiet, the lake is green and clear, and the trees surrounding the lake are beautiful. Although it is early May, there is still a lot of snow on the hillsides and trails around the lake to enjoy. (Original) 路況差，但實在值得一去，環境清幽，湖水綠的清澈，環湖的樹木又好看。雖然已五月初旬，湖邊周圍山坡及步道仍有不少積雪可供賞玩。

(Translated by Google) The road to the lake is a bit challenging, but it is worth going. The nature is magnificent. There is a fee of 180 liras at the entrance. There is a cafe-style place inside. Coffee is 100 liras and stale, tasteless. Moreover, it is in a paper cup. Tea is 30 liras and a paper cup for one. The employees are very rude and sullen. The most negative aspect of this business. It really does not suit you at all. (Original) Gölün yolu biraz zorlayıcı , ancak gitmeye değer . Doğa muhteşem . Girişte 180 Lira ücret ödeniyor . İçeride cafe tarzı bir yer var . Kahve 100 Lira ve bayat , lezzetsiz . Üstelik karton bardakta . Çay 30 lira ve uüne karton bardak . Çalışanlar çok kaba ve asık yüzlü . En olumsuz tarafı bu işletme . Hiç yakışmıypr gerçekten

(Translated by Google) My wife and I went on a Black Sea tour and we went everywhere, we only stopped by this place in Artvin, we went up 5 km, the road is very bad, there is a single lane road and there is a cliff on one side, even two vehicles have to pass, when you go up, we paid 180 TL for the entrance fee, the only place you can see and see is this small lake in the picture, there is no other place to see, when we were going down, the excavator was working, it was not in any trouble to give way, the road was bad and narrow, to top it all off, we waited like that for half an hour, you go down 5 km to come back, I said I will not come again, it is a place I regret going up, the upper parts of the road are worse, it will be missed, there is no part of it, for your information, we felt sorry for the fuel we spent for the money we paid (Original) Eşimle kendimiz Karadeniz turuna çıktık her yeri gezerek gidiyoruz Artvin’de sadece bu yere uğradık 5 km yukarı çıktık yolu çok bozuk tek şeritlik yol var ve bir tarafı uçurum olan yerden iki araç geçmek durumunda bile kalınıyor yukarı çıkıyorsunuz verilen giriş ücreti cabası 180 tl ödedik araç girişi için sadece görüp görebileceğiniz yer bu resimdeki küçük göl başka hiçbir görülecek yeri yok aşağı inerken kepçe çalışma yapıyordu yol verme derdinde hiç değildi yol kötü olması ve daracık olması cabası yarım saat öyle bekledik geri dönmek içinde 5 km iniyorsunuz bir daha gelirmişim gelmem çıktığım içinde pişman olduğum bir yer yolun yukarı kısımları daha bozuk kaçacak hiç payı kısmı yok bilginize verdiğimiz paraya yaktığımız mazota acıdık resmen

Very beautiful place. There are many waterfalls. You can viewed it below, or you can climb the stairs to the top and see the top view.

Beautiful place , the view is awesome . . .

Well, the view much better in winter!

Magical!

Breathtaking views!

Amazing place

Beautiful place, different waterfalls!

Spectacular. Magical place. With old walls, extremely green grass and forested hills in the back you get a sensational experience. The whole area is quite big. Takes about 30-40 minutes to walk throught it.

We were here 7 years ago and today we came back here with our children. My daughter studied the history of the Russian Empire at the English school and when we arrived in Batumi we went to show her Gonio. This is a unique place that everyone should visit. The territory is not big, but it has so much history. There is a very beautiful museum on the premises that can describe the history in detail. Here you can buy souvenirs, take a walk and there is a toilet. This year we also saw roses blooming - here is our own alley of different roses. There is a separate house in which clothes and tools of those times are presented. Admission is free for locals and 10 GEL for guests.

Gonio Fortress is a lovely historical site worth visiting for anyone interested in history and ancient architecture. The fortress offers a glimpse into the past with its well-preserved ruins and small onsite museum displaying historical artifacts. It’s a pleasant place to walk through and explore. The staff at the entrance were friendly and welcoming, and the facilities, including the restrooms, were clean and well-maintained.

The fortress in Gonio is probably not the most famous in the world, but it is very well preserved and visited. Just think, it is already two thousand years old! A ticket costs only 10 GEL. You can walk right along the preserved walls of the fortress. There is an archaeological museum, a souvenir shop, and the tomb of one of Christ's apostles, Matthias, on the grounds.

Gonio Fortress is a cool ancient spot near Batumi with sturdy stone walls and pretty green areas. The statues and ruins, plus the possible Saint Matthias tomb, make it historically fun. I enjoyed the peaceful vibe and exploring!

Gonio Fortress is a fascinating historical site full of stories and charm. The ancient walls, towers, and peaceful garden inside make it a great place to walk around and imagine life centuries ago. The site is well-kept and surrounded by beautiful nature, with views of the mountains and the sea nearby. A must-visit if you’re in Batumi and love history or quiet, atmospheric places!

Gonio, previously called Apsarus or Apsaros, is a Roman fortification 15 km south of Batumi, at the mouth of the Chorokhi river. Its name was connected with the myth of Medea and her brother Absyrtus. In the 2nd century AD it was a well-fortified Roman city within Colchis. The town was also known for its theatre and hippodrome. It later came under Byzantine influence. In addition, there was a short-lived Genoese trade factory at the site. In 1547, Gonio was taken by the Ottoman Empire, who held it until 1878, when, via the San-Stefano Treaty, Adjara became part of the Russian Empire. The grave of Saint Matthias, one of the twelve apostles, is believed to be inside the Gonio fortress. The location of the fortress, surrounded by lash green mountains, is amazingly beautiful and very picturesque.

Highest peak of Europe. The photo was taken on my return flight from Europe to Japan. It has two iconic peaks,the eastern peak at 5621m and western peak at 5642m that is the top of European wide. It is stratovolcano and the symbolic center of the mountain belongs to Caucasus range.

Gorgeous mountain, one of the 7 summits. The views from the top are great too (when not in whiteout, of cause). The south side is a little spoiled by civilization (mostly skiing infrastructure) so only after 5300 m you start feeling truly in alone and a little detached from civilization. Still great experience, though!

Just an amazing experience!Thanks to the people like Anastasia and our climb leader(big boss) Andrej. He was a profesional at each moment of our tour. Perfect!

Beautiful mountain in the heart of Caucasus. Not a very technical climb at all. Not many people will be climbing it with you even during high season, so it's still quite enjoyable. Biggest problem during the climb will be that some of the tourists climbing with you will be taking the "shortcut" to the base camp (with ski lifts) and to the Summit (with snowcats). Not exactly the most nature oriented climb. But besides this, the views are amazing and the climb enjoyable. Because it's not so high in altitude, you should be doing quite ok on the altitude sickness side as long as you take the necessary time and listen to your body. We saw one tourist (from another group) having to be lifted down by a rescue team because he was already at severe altitude sickness levels. People are not careful enough and do not understand what that can cause to them. So be mindful!

Very picturesque mountain from any point and location at Karachaevo-cherkessiya, Kabardino-balkariya or even Stavropol area, like pyatigorsk!

Spectacular mountain, barrel huts are a great place to stay, almost 2km of vertical is a big summit day from there but most people achieve it

Best experience of my life! I went on a solo expedition for the west summit and I lived an unforgettable adventure. Thanks Elbrus, epic, terrible and terrific mountain.

Dombai offers breathtaking views, fresh mountain air, and a true winter wonderland experience. The slopes are great for intermediate skiers, and the surrounding nature is simply magical - perfect for both skiing and scenic walks. The infrastructure isn’t as modern as in Europe, but that’s part of its charm. Lifts can be a bit outdated and queues are common during peak season, but the incredible beauty of the place more than makes up for it.

It's really good place

January 2021. Not a lot of snow to ski, but this is not due to the service. The old lift is simply awful, slow and non convenient, and mostly, dangerous. The new one is ok, but definitely over crowded. To rent the skies is not hard, full of small places, missing an organized big one. 3 stars are only for the mountains, which are very beautiful. The rest, I suggest: with the same money, you can fly to Italy or France or Austria.

One of my favourite place in Russia I visited is Dombay. Very attractive nature. I visited in Summer, it was so nice. I enjoyed rain, snowfall and sunlight at the same day. It was really amazing experience I had about Russian nature.

Best ski resort in southern Russia, very nice environment with authentic culture of that region.

Too much snow and strong wind not so many large decents

Beautiful place, nice small village.

If you are lucky to go there on a sunny day in January, it will give a vibe of Himalayan. The temperature is comparatively low in altitude. So dress up yourself properly. The cable car experience is excellent. To do ski you have to reach there before 10:00am.

Very cool ski resort, well organized with day and night ski!!!! Sleds open almost 24 7. The only downside is that the nightlife is very limited, to say the truth had no power to get out after full day of ski.

Great place. A must visit if you are touring Russia. We were here in April. But March is better if you want to ski.

Generally feels like they could have done better with the resort... Some runs are fantastic, not too long but fun. Most of the other slopes are long and narrow, which is less fun. Lifts are OK but the Russians should learn more about queue management. We had two times where we waited 20-25 minutes, other waits were long too. If the site is crowded then you feel it well on the slopes. The good :excellent site for beginners, the area between slopes is very nice for the powder seekers. Bottom line - not the same as the alps but a nice alternative nevertheless.

very modern ski resort although it is not the French Alp it is very recommended for family and weekends. best compensation money value

Nice ski resort, close to Adler, Sochi City, close to International Sochi airport, easily accessible with car, train or buses. Relatively not expensive. About 100 km of pistes.

this is a very beautiful and very welcoming place. in short this is the best ski town that i ever been in. Also there is a lot of different restaurants like italian, asian or just a steakhouse and so... the only minor problem was the lack of the english language, most of the russian there doesn't talk english

Very nice for beginners! Slopes are quite wide and not too flat to get bored, the view is beautiful. However, if you are advanced, it will definitely feel too easy here. I personally just loved the night-skiing - you can ski until 11pm! Slopes are nicely lightened and everything looks so atmospheric 💫 Organization is still to be somewhat improved - queues in front of the lifts are usual thing and can take quite long!

Loved it! Great service, not crowded, all sorts of activities available. I believe it's the only place in this resort to practice cross-country skiing!

Super complex. We went ice-skating (great) in Galactica followed by swimming in the Aquapark (the outdoor pool in the snow is something else). We then finished the day with night skiing under lights. Nice, easy and wide slopes, (D1 was a nice blue for novices) plus some more challenging pistes for the more advanced. Thank you, we had a great time!

Nice for beginners and medium level riders

Really cool. Lots of things to do with kids

Just horrible to say the least. The lowest lever of service remained the same from "soviet era", you are supposed to be guilty for clumsy skiing maneuvres however there is NO snow coverage in Gazprom ski resort. Rude comments from the staff, some disrepectful remarks - those are the memories I'm gonna bring from this trip. Rip-off in terms of prices: 2000 RUB -ski pass for 1 day, 500 RUB parking fee ( for 1 hour), 200 RUB 1 hour for the storage of the staff in a locker, very high prices in restorants, 9000 RUB for 2 adults - 2 hour training with an instructor. That's not even worth it, there is no snow by 5th of January

Great ski resort even if you stay down mountain. Suitable kid/newbie hills and plenty of other hills too!
