About Goris
Goris is a picturesque town located in the southern part of Armenia, nestled among stunning rock formations. The town is known for its unique architecture, with stone houses built into the cliffs. The currency used in Goris is the Armenian Dram. The town has a rich history dating back to ancient times, with many historical sites to explore. Goris is also a gateway to the stunning Tatev Monastery, accessible by the world's longest reversible aerial tramway.
When to visit
The best time to visit Goris is during the spring and autumn months when the weather is mild and perfect for exploring the town and its surroundings. Summers can be hot, while winters can be cold and snowy, making it less ideal for outdoor activities. The shoulder seasons offer pleasant temperatures and fewer crowds, making it a great time to visit.
Getting around
Getting around Goris is relatively easy, as the town is compact and walkable. Taxis are also readily available for longer distances or if you prefer not to walk. Renting a car is another option for exploring the surrounding areas at your own pace. Public transportation is limited but can be used to reach nearby attractions.
Traveller tips
When visiting Goris, be sure to try the local cuisine, which includes dishes like khorovats (barbecue) and dolma (stuffed grape leaves). It's also a good idea to carry cash as not all places may accept credit cards. English may not be widely spoken, so having a basic knowledge of Armenian phrases can be helpful. Respect the local customs and traditions, especially when visiting religious sites. Lastly, be prepared for varying weather conditions and dress accordingly.
