These Fun

Armenia is a country that used to be part of the former Soviet Republic. It is located between the Caucasus mountain regions and Asia. Armenia is famous for housing one of the world’s oldest wineries among many other unique attractions. Here are some interesting things to do in Armenia that are out of the ordinary!

Try T’tu Lavash

This beloved Armenian snack can be found on the streets with street vendors cutting bite-sized strips for people to sample. It’s made primarily from Armenian apricot which is their national fruit. This delicacy can be eaten on its own or even wrapped in walnuts or cashews for a healthier alternative.


Check out the Unique Mirzoyan Library

This isn’t your ordinary library. It was the workspace of photographer Karen Mirzyoyan. He initially transformed this place by turning it into a personal museum that featured 100 fine photography books. It became such a hit that he opened it to the public and started hosting local photographers. It was a hub for people to share their artworks and an oasis for the artists.

Sample the Fruit Flavored Wines

In Armenia, one of the oldest countries to produce wine, fruit wine is a staple. Mt. Ararat is where most high-quality grapes are produced and it creates flavorful tastes such as pomegranate, apricot, and more. Fruit wine has less alcohol percentage and is usually paired even during lunchtime!

Ski-in the Winter Wonderland of Tsaghkadzor

Tsaghkadzor is the perfect place to visit in the winter if you’re an adrenaline junkie that loves to ski. It’s a relatively cheap place to ski and for just $12 you can rent ski equipment for the entire day. The top of the view is at an altitude of 2819 meters where you can see a panoramic view of Ararat mountain and Lake Sevan.
