A drive north from Yerevan climbs into air that thins and brightens, and the road opens onto a bowl of slopes and stone. Tsaghkadzor’s chairlifts hum like a mechanical wind, hauling skiers and sightseers above gullies where scrub pines hold snow late into spring. Below the lifts, Kecharis Monastery sits on a low ridge: compact domes and carved tuff walls that have watched this valley for centuries.
