Phaeton of Gyumri is the traditional carriage of Gyumri city. Until the 1950-60s, when cars were not yet widespread in Gyumri, phaeton served as a taxi for the people of Gyumri. It was customary for men to go to the feast in a phaeton. During weddings, the bride and groom were also transported by phaeton.
Later, phaetons gave way to cars, but thanks to dedicated people they were preserved. To this day, you can see traditional Gyumri carriages on the streets of Gyumri, in which tourists take a excursion through the old streets of Gyumri and imagine what Gyumri was like in the past.
If desired, we can organize an excursion by carriage.
