Dvin - doesn’t take long

The archaeological site of the city of Dvin (On tentative list)

Dvin

Visit July 2025

Once a grand city — today, there’s almost nothing left.

A visit doesn’t take long. Not much has changed at this site since the last review.

There is still no tourist infrastructure, although the gate is open and an information board provides a brief description of the site in several languages. A tiled pathway has been laid out, but it’s already neglected.

There’s little to see apart from a couple of columns, the reconstructed layout of what was once a magnificent church, and some remnants of water pipes.

Hard to imagine this as World Heritage material.
