Travel Blogs from Yerevan, Armenia
Around Yerevan, part I: Creation and Destruction
This is a top pick! My first taste of Armenia was a marshrutka ride from Tbilisi to Yerevan, from capital to capital, across snowy mountain passes, through deep gorges, and across snowy highlands with small towns, hay piled next to homes to last the long winter. Dropped ...
This is a top pick! 
Noravank
... so far. It's a beautiful day and our imaginations have been fired up by Khor Virap and we're ready for more of Armenia. This country suddenly seems very romantic in the way that only places with invasions and turmoil can be! Roadside stalls are ...
A church and a dungeon
Today was another great day in Armenia. Since it was Sunday, we went to Levon's church here in Yerevan. The church's handbell choir performed the piece they played for us last night, and did wonderfully. We also helped out with the Sunday school classes. ...

Transitioning back to Western world
Since there isn't much scenery to see, I decided to catch an overnight train from Tbilisi, Georgia to Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. It was a very slow train. The journey (including border crossings, when an Armenian visa could be obtained at the ...

The Genocide Memorial and Museum
... blind eye towards it. And still this is not a story that is widely known. Later we had a 3 day tour around parts of Armenia which I'll describe in a later blog but our driver was saddened that our children are not taught this but he did say that ...
Second Day in Armenia
... to get back to yerevan, and we are all exhausted yet again. but that's okay because we will sleep well and tomorrow will be the best day of our lives. in the words of our good friend and cameraman, Arthur: Armenia day 2: game over. -Kristen ...
yay day off!!!
... old capitol building of armenia. it was another intricate stone building 3 stories high. but unfortunately, the large earthquake that devestated armenia left this breath-taking structure in ruins. some of it has been reconstructed and a lot of the carved ...
The Holy Land
... didn't have a concert until 18.00 or so late night, so during the day, we went out to visit some of the ancient churches in Armenia. The trajet was very bumpy, as usual, as we drove off to remote Armenia to visit thise shrines. On the way, we decided to ...
Gyumri, Orphanage, Refugee Camp...
... 14, we had another great time of worship in the morning before setting off for the day to Gyumri, the second largest city in Armenia only to Yerevan. The bus ride was once again rather long, but it was a good time of fellowship and naps to catch up on ...

Where and why Armenia?

Market day

Goodbye Yerevan
... The terms and phrases, 'best-kept secret' and 'get there before it's discovered' are somewhat over-used in travel circles but Armenia is definitely deserving of this tag. Armenia is far from sophisticated but the warmth, beauty of its Ten Worlds, and ...
Armenia
... Anyway, every night they have an amazing fountain display, choroeographed to all styles of music and it seems that everyone in Yerevan is there watching it. It is sometimes folowed by a firework dispay but so far we have not managed to see ...

Bird Watching, Harvest Festival, and Stuff
... great! This weekend, a group of us went bird watching over in Ararat Marz. My Dad had sent me a bird book of Armenia. The Environmental Volunteers were impressed with it because it was the hardcover version of their book. We watched the sun rise on ...
Tblisi or Not Tblisi?
On Friday I am scheduled to fly to the States. On the bus ride into Yerevan this morning, I though to myself "Gee, it's really foggy. Huh, I can't even see across the that park over there" So, I go about my business and eventually met up with two other ...
Armenia

Off to London
