What you can expect

  • Discover the ancient art of Armenian carpet weaving through a carefully designed cultural experience focused on antique carpets and traditional craftsmanship. This tour offers a unique opportunity to explore one of Armenia’s most important cultural heritages, shaped over centuries and known for its rich symbolism and artistry.

    Your experience begins with a guided visit to a space dedicated to the restoration and preservation of antique Armenian carpets. You will see a remarkable collection of historical pieces, some dating back up to 400 years, representing different regions and periods. As you walk through the collection, your guide will explain the meaning behind traditional patterns, symbols, and ornaments.

    This is not only a museum space, but also a working production. You will also see modern carpet-making processes and visit a showroom featuring finished pieces that combine traditional techniques with contemporary design.

    Learn about natural dyes, traditional weaving techniques, and the cultural significance that makes Armenian carpets highly valued around the world. This place is also known to welcome visitors from around the world, including Conan O’Brien, Kim Kardashian, Serj Tankian, and others.

    After the tour, you will be invited to an atmospheric restaurant located on-site. A traditional Armenian dessert table will be prepared for you, including tea or coffee, homemade compote, fresh gata, halva, and other local sweets, along with water or mineral water.

    This is not just the end of the tour, but a meaningful part of the experience. In a calm and inviting setting, you can slow down, enjoy the flavours of Armenian cuisine, and experience local hospitality through taste, detail, and atmosphere.
