Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, boasts magnificent Soviet-era architecture. On the city’s main street, you’ll find the Matenadaran Institute of Ancient Manuscripts, home to thousands of ancient Greek and Armenian manuscripts.
The focal point of Yerevan’s architectural ensemble is Republic Square, featuring singing fountains and the colonnaded Government House. The National History Museum, founded in the 1920s, showcases archaeological finds, such as leather shoes dating back to approximately 3500 BC.
Yerevan is a festive palette at any time of the year. Every month is great for tourism: winter is mild, spring is bright, summer is festive, and autumn is long and warm.
In Yerevan, the distant past and the rhythmic present are flawlessly combined. Here you will find both old churches, historical and cultural monuments, museums and galleries, as well as modern sights and recreation places – clubs, restaurants, taverns, bars, children’s attractions, shopping centers, squares decorated with pink ornaments, green gardens and parks…
Yerevan offers a wide range of cultural activities: jazz, rock, folk and classic music, national dances, religious, cultural and entertaining events and festivals; young and old happy people soaked to the skin pouring water over each other on the streets, this all and much more will make your tour unforgettable… The Armenian national cuisine and drinks, rich in different tastes, will become a discovery even for the most discerning gourmets.
Yerevanians (as we call ourselves) love life, feasts for or without any reason, weddings and parties. And the unique Armenian hospitality has no boundaries. So don’t be surprised and don’t refuse if you are accidentally invited to yerevanians’ home to continue the fun. Be sure that they won’t let you go without some goodies. Here people know how to bring joy and happiness!!
So, if you love to travel, your collection of memories will definitely be incomplete without warm Yerevan impressions. The sunny Yerevan with a magnificent view of Biblical mount Ararat is waiting for you!
