This time the first point of interest will be Tsitsernakaberd - the memorial-complex devoted to the victims of the Armenian genocide. At the center of the monument there is the Memorial Sepulcher with eternal flame and twelve tall basalt slabs leaning over the flame. As a part of the Monument the arrow-shaped 44 meters high granite stele symbolizes the spiritual rebirth and bold spirit of the Armenian people. The Genocide Museum is a special constituent part of the complex. The exhibit contains many large photos taken by the witnesses, archival documents, documentary films and the original documents issued by international organizations and parliaments of foreign countries condemning the Genocide.

The next stop will be in Echmiadzin where we will visit Hripshime and Gayane churches as well as Mother CathedralSt. Hripsime church is the one of the famous ecclesiastical buildings in the city of Echmiadzin. This is the developed and perfect example of cross-cupola churches in Armenia. Not far from the Echmiadzin Cathedral against the background of white peaks of Ararat one can see the silhouette of the cupola of St. Gayane church. According to the legend this church was constructed over the tomb of Virgin Gayane, who was martyred for preaching Christianity
According to the legend Mother Cathedral of St. Echmiadzin was built in the place where apparition of Jesus Christ was seen to Grigory the Illuminator in the dream

After visiting Cultural-Creative Center CAU in Echmiadzin we will continue our tour to Zvartnots Cathedral - Armenian Cathedral built in the 7th century that could survive only till the 10th century. 

Here we will finish this trip and will return back to Yerevan city.
