LEVON’S DIVINE UNDERGROUND

We visited famous underground carved rooms in Arinj on the outskirts of Yerevan (🚖 1300 AMD/way). It all started when All Tosya Arakelyan wanted her husband Levon to build her a potato cellar. What she got in return was an incredibly intricate seven-level underground cave network built over 23 years with only simple tools. His strange and impressive creation was opened to the public in 2000 (he died in 2008). Levon´s second daughter guided us (5000 AMD) through the caves, and after the visit, his wife had a chat with us in the beautiful stone garden designed by Levon.
