Soviet Yerevan: A Walk Through 20th Century Architecture
Yerevan is often introduced as a city of ancient churches and pink tuff stone facades, but much of what travelers see today in modern Yerevan was created in the last century. After Soviet rule was established in Armenia in 1920, the capital was transformed into a showcase of socialist urban planning. Wide avenues, monumental squares and futuristic cultural centers appeared, reshaping the city's identity.

Mount Ararat – Symbol of Armenia: Best Places to Admire the View
For anyone visiting Armenia, the first unforgettable sight is often Mount Ararat rising above the horizon. Its snowcapped peaks dominate the skyline of Yerevan and the surrounding valleys, visible from countless corners of the country.

Live the Land: Ecotourism in Farms, Vineyards & Villages of Armenia

But what if we told you the real soul of this country isn't found in the city buzz? It's in the taste of a sun-ripened apricot plucked straight from the tree. It's in the quiet hum of a village waking up to the smell of baking bread. It's waiting for you, just beyond the city limits.

Auto-translatedA tour of legendary Lori seemed too difficult for our group of retired women from flat St. Petersburg, so I took a chance and went alone. I didn’t regret it. Our guide Karen not only spoke about all the sights with warmth and enthusiasm, but also kept a close eye on every member of the group. I’d like to express my special gratitude and admiration to our driver Khachatur—a true professional who handled genuinely difficult and dangerous mountain roads in a way you don’t even see on a smooth, new highway.

Экскурсия в легендарный Лори - для нашей компании пенсионерок из равнинного Петербурга казалась трудной, и поэтому рискнула поехать я одна. И не пожалела. Наш гид Карен не только интересно и с любовью рассказал обо всех об'ектах, но и внимательно оберегал каждого экскурсанта. Отдельную благодарность и восхищение выражаю нашему водителю Хачатуру - настоящему профессионалу, который по реально трудным и опасным горным дорогам проехал так, как не ездят по ровному новому шоссе. -

Auto-translatedWe would like to express our admiration for the most ancient monuments, lovingly preserved in Armenia. Our guide, Gayane, spoke lovingly about each site in two languages. The driver, Iosif, handled our huge bus so professionally that we didn’t feel we were traveling along mountain roads. Special thanks for the wonderfully organized lunch in a magnificent garden.

We would have liked to spend a little longer at each stop, but on the way back we realized that it gets dark early in October, and the itinerary was planned just right.

Выражаем свое восхищение древнейшими памятниками, бережно сохраненными в Армении. Наша экскурсовод Гаянэ с любовью рассказала о каждом об'екте на двух языках. Водитель Иосиф настолько профессионально вел наш огромный автобус, что мы не почувствовали, что наш путь пролегает по горным дорогам. Отдельная благодарность за прекрасно организованный обед в великолепном саду.
Хотелось бы оставаться на каждой остановке чуть побольше, но на обратном пути поняли, что в октябре рано темнеет, и программа составлена правильно.
