on

Ever wanted to discover a place that’s full of history, stunning scenery, and rich culture? Armenia ticks all those boxes and then some. Let’s explore why this incredible country deserves a spot on your travel radar with a few must-see highlights.

The Ancient Monastery of Tatev

One of the most awe-inspiring places in Armenia is the Tatev Monastery. This 9th-century masterpiece stands on the edge of a dramatic cliff in the Syunik Province. Getting to Tatev is an adventure in itself. As you can take the Wings of Tatev, the world’s longest non-stop double-track cable car. The full route is nearly 4 miles!

@kimmconn VLOG: AMAZING day tour in Armenia to the least-frequented region of Syunik! I signed up for this tour on @GetYourGuide and honestly think this is the best day trip from Yerevan to see some true hidden gems. From Shaki waterfall to the Wings of Tatev cable car and Tatev Monastery AND wine tasting in Areni – it was comprehensive and such a fascinating day!

Explore Lake Sevan

This vast, shimmering lake is one of the largest high-altitude lakes in the world. Here you can enjoy a range of activities, from swimming and sunbathing on the beaches to exploring the nearby Sevanavank Monastery, which dates back to the 9th century. The area is also famous for its fresh fish, particularly the local Sevan trout, which is a must-try delicacy.
