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.
I did not see the villa in my eyes, I came by taxi to the wine festival, and the beginning is at 15.00, what to do for six hours is unclear, some kind of clearing where the famous festival is going to be held???
The villa is beautiful, but there is a guard at the entrance who asks not to go. The villa itself is fenced with cameras, the entrance to the territory is also with a gate
