Goyarchin was a village in the Sharur-Daralayaz uezd of the former Iravan governorate, later in the former Pashali (Azizbeyov, Vayk) district, and currently in the Vayots Dzor province and located on the bank of the Arpachay.

The village was solely inhabited by Azerbaijanis: 20 in 1831, 48 in 1873, 34 in 1886, 84 in 1897, 60 in 1904, 66 in 1914 and 72 Azerbaijanis in 1916. The Azerbaijanis were attacked, massacred or expelled from the village by Armenian armed units in 1918. After the establishment of Soviet power in present-day Armenia, the Azerbaijanis who survived managed to return to the village. The village was abolished in 1930 and lies in ruins.

The toponym was coined on the basis of the ethnonym “Guyerchi”, a branch of the Turkic Pecheneg tribe.
