    Crossing over at the overpass opposite the signposted turnoff for Khor Virap, turn right on the old road, then left. You pass the village of Nor Kyank (founded in 1946).

   Keeping straight you reach the village of Aralez (till 1978 Gharabulagh, renamed for the "Ara-lickers," magic dogs that were supposed to lick the mythical hero Ara the Beautiful back to life after Shamiram fell catastrophically in love with him).
