Sevanavank is a monastic complex located on a peninsula at the northwestern shore of Lake Sevan in the Gegharkunik Province of Armenia, not far from the town of Sevan. Initially the monastery was built at the southern shore of a small island. After the artificial draining of Lake Sevan, which started in the era of Joseph Stalin, the water level fell about 20 metres, and the island transformed into a peninsula. At the southern shore of this newly created peninsula, a guesthouse of the Writers Union of Armenia was built. The eastern shore is occupied by the Armenian president's summer residence, while the monastery's still active seminary moved to newly constructed buildings at the northern shore of the peninsula.

Part of the complex, including the museum and a sculpture garden, was completed in 2009, and work continues to reconstruct and expand the complex.
Vernissage Market
Yerevan Vernissage is a large open-air market in Yerevan, Armenia. The name of the market is the derived from the French word vernissage.

The construction of the park was launched during the late 1930s as the "Arabkir city park", within the frames of the development of the Nor Arabkir neighbourhood at the north of Yerevan; the capital of the Armenian Soviet Socialist Republic. After the Great Patriotic War, the park was renamed "Victory Park", commemorating the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany at the Eastern Front of World War II.

Our experience started with Aram's helpful, informative communciation about our schedule, pick-up, and needs. He revised the published schedule to adapt to our timeframe. The schedule itself was well thought out - we had lots of varied types of activites each day. Our driver, Arman, was more of a knowledgeable guide than a driver. He was prompt, informative, personable, flexible, and he took us to additional sites that were not on the list. I cannot imagine how the experience could have been improved. Thank you!

We booked Gira travels for our trip to Armenia . They gave us a detailed itinerary covering all major attractions .Arman was our guide during our 4 days trip to Armenia . He is definitely the best guide we have ever had. His knowledge on the country(history, sightseeing, culture .. everything ) is excellent, he does his job with passion and enthusiasm and he was always trying to do more than included in the programme. His English is perfect and he was entertaining us with lots of jokes from the morning till the evening every single day. I highly recommend Gira travels to everyone
