This tour can be called “A meeting of old and new”. The start is at the Halidzor aerial tramway station, walking down by well-built road to Halidzor village (built in 1966). On the way down, we can clearly see that we are approaching Old Halidzor village because of the dirt road. In the early 10th century, the village of Halidzor was gifted to Tatev and it belonged to the monastery until the 19th century. The small stone houses were built in the cascade style, traditional for Armenian alpine villages, where the roof of the lower house serves as the yard of the upper one. Here we take a tour to see the old church, mineral springs, old ruins of houses and old cemetery and complete the tour. The return path is via the same route.
