Armenia, a lesser known but beautiful Eurasian country, is bestowed with rocky highlands, lush green forests, and tranquil lakes. The capital city of Yerevan is one of the oldest cities of the world and is a treasure for art enthusiasts. Whilst here, experience the rich historic culture of Armenia and relive the history of Armenia in Geghard, known for its towering cliffs and monastery.
Also, indulge in Armenian cuisine which takes influences from Turkish, Persian, and Arabic cuisines. It mainly consists of Dzhash which is a popular meat dish and Byorek which is a pie made with phyllo pastry and stuffed with cheese.
Armenia is also popular for its music, dance and art. Duduk music is very famous along with their folk dance. You can also visit the Yerevan Vernissage, the arts and crafts market, to shop for souvenirs to take home.
