Dvin: Armenia’s Abandoned Medieval Capital

Explore the ruins of Dvin, Armenia's forgotten medieval capital, through this aerial tour. Once home to over 100,000 people, Dvin was a thriving center of trade and culture from the 4th to 13th centuries. For hundreds of years, the Silk Road passed through these walls, bringing in wealth and knowledge near and far. We recently visited the site, around 40 minutes by car south of Yerevan, the current capital of Armenia, in the vast plains of Ararat. The site lies in utter ruins, with crumbling walls and weathered stones barely hinting at its story of its former grandeur. From above, you'll see the outlines of ancient fortifications, a once-magnificent cathedral, and the sprawling city layout. We hope you enjoy this 2-minute film which offers a unique perspective on one of Armenia's most important archaeological sites. Many more incredible sites are to come, so be sure to Subscribe!
