ARMENIA
THE CROSSROADS BETWEEN CONTINENTS
WHY YOU SHOULD VISIT ARMENIA
​Armenia is a small country full of historic monuments, incredible hearty food, and winding roads. There are stunning views from the mountainside monasteries, boat rides of Lake Sevan and countless opportunities to hike, bike, or just relax.
​
Unique is often a word that's grown around, but Armenia has an alphabet that no other country uses; it's at the crossroads of Asia and Europe, but it's developed its own identity. You will see this through the ancient buildings, the traditional craftsmanship and language.
