In the village of Bjni, you will find a unique fortress and the Church of Mother of God, and in Tsakhkadzor, the elegant monastery of Kecharis.

In Tsaghkadzor, you can visit the house-museum of the legendary brothers Orbeli (Orbelyan), each of whom has achieved worldwide fame in his field of science. The brothers are descendants of the ancient Armenian princely families of Orbeli and Argutyan-Dolgoruky. Education and scientific aspirations were of particular importance for these noble families. And this played a decisive role in the fact that not one, not two, but three geniuses were born in this family at once.
