The works for reconstruction of Tatev tourism center are rapidly progressing.

“Construction of aerial tramway proceeds within the schedule and will be finished by October 16. It will be the longest aerial tramway meeting all international standards,” executive director of the National Competitiveness Foundation of Armenia Bekor Papazyan told a PanARMENIAN.Net reporter.

“Tourism products, including organization of walking tours and establishment of an oil mill, will be launched. Paths will be laid towards the cave of Khndzoresk, where national dishes will be offered to the tourists,” he said.

The investments have totaled $20mln, with the whole project estimated $40mln. “$10lmn was invested for the aerial tramway construction and $10mln for the reconstruction of the monastery. A part of extra expenses will be covered by the government,” Mr. Papazyan said.
