ANGELAKOTH – all Armenia and especially the mountainous region of Zangezur, is rich in beautiful remains of prehistoric times. In the various regions of the town of Sisian are found many megalithic monuments, which are among the oldest structures in stone. Examples of this megalithic culture are dolmens and the arrangements of menhirs at Angelakoth, which belong to the second millennium B.C.
ANCIENT OBSERVATORY ZORAKAR (KARAHUNGE) - Cyclops erections of Zorakar believed to be an ancient observatory quite similar to Stonehenge in England. The columns sit like soldiers on a hill, huddled in formation. The 204 stones near Sisian have been ascribed with mystical, fertility and cosmic powers, but rarely have ancient monuments caused such a sensation in astronomical circles.
SHAKE WATERFALL - one of the wonders of nature – the height is 18 m.
MEGHRI - is the final Armenian town before reaching Iran. The climate here is subtropical, and it is common to see pomegranates and figs growing in trees along the roads. Fortress of Meghri (17th century) is a unique example of Armenian fortification technique.
