In the village of Pemzashen, where tufa stone has shaped homes and churches for centuries, visitors can try their hand at Armenian stonecraft. At Stone Art Guest House, you’ll create a clay candleholder, decorate it with colorful tufa pieces, and learn about the region’s 48 shades of stone.
Guided by local artisans, the workshop offers a calm, creative space to connect with a tradition that’s both practical and deeply rooted in Armenian heritage.
This experience is part of the “Digitalization of Tourism Experiences in Armenia” project by ONEArmenia, supported by the PSD TVET Programme, implemented by GIZ on behalf of the German Government. The goal of the project is to enhance the digital presence of tourism experiences in Armenia, from wellness retreats to cultural explorations.
