Secrets of Armenia's Stone Henge

The name of Karahunj sounds similar to Stonehenge and is translated as "singing or sounding stones". The Armenian observatory is similar and can be compared with the ancient stone construction in the north of Scotland, Karenish (kare nish in Armenian means stone sign), as well as with the stone construction in the north of France, Karnak (1876 BC) - written and pronounced similar to Karnish - and Newgrenge in Ireland (2500-2400 BC).


The Armenian scientists of ancient times could accurately measure latitude, knew that the earth is ball-shaped, and had an accurate calendar and many more...

According to newly started excavations, the Armenian Stonehenge (Karahunj) has a history of 7500 years. It's discovery has sparked a scientific debate in astronomical and astrological circles.

He loves the mountains and caves, hiking and exploring, but most of all hunting.  Diving deep into the nature, he forgets himself.  As if he had touched every stone and leave in the surroundings, drank from every well, and smelled every flower ...


He has dived in these springs ...

He has climbed these mountains ...

Rested and slept everywhere in this wild nature ...

He is part of Sisian, he cannot leave himself, he cannot live without his motherland.  Why is it so?

He told us, he doesn't know, maybe it is because of his father and mother?  Maybe his friends?  He doesn't see himself apart from his little town.

He built a B&B, because he wants to show everyone the wonders of wild, peaceful and friendly mountains of southern Armenia.
