Be aware that you might arrive when the area is closed, and the security guard won’t let you in—not even for a quick look at the villa or the so-called “Forest King.” Even if you’re a tourist visiting just for the day, they won’t make any exceptions, as the site is private property. There are no posted opening hours, so it’s entirely a matter of luck whether you get in or not. I wouldn’t recommend it—it’s simply not worth the hassle.
This is just a must-visit place. A must for those who are interested in the history of Soviet Armenia and architecture.
Infocards on tree branches are useful, beautiful, unusual.
A little further there is an abandoned pioneer camp. I recommend it to lovers of abandoned houses.
