Everything about Yerevan Armenia is true

Yerevan Armenia what happened to me there, charming in its own way, although I have rather mixed feelings about this place. Yerevan is a nice city, with huge boulevards and sidewalks, clean and tidy, at least in the central part. The Soviet influence is evident in everything, even now in the new buildings. I will not comment on the memorials - they are huge and impressive. Churches and monasteries as you like. Extremely religious, even at times obsessed, superstitious and fatalistic. As Narine Abgarian says in one of his books "Armenians are a strange people".

Communication is in Russian (I am from the generation that speaks Russian), English is an evil dog that bites In the countryside, even the Russian language is not preferable. The food, oh the food, absolutely delicious. Pure and genuine products, the taste of childhood. We rented a car, saw ourselves on an adventure. Outside the capital, the roads are downright terrible. Potholes, patches, jumps, no markings, no signs and everyone drives by their own rules. Beautiful nature, stone monasteries, timelessness, souvenir sellers, sweet grandmothers selling "gata". It's fascinating, as I said, in my own way. See it with your own eyes. Communication is in Russian (I am from the generation that speaks Russian), English is an evil dog that bites.

Outside the capital, the roads are downright terrible. Potholes, patches, jumps, no markings, no signs and everyone drives by their own rules. Beautiful nature, stone monasteries, timelessness, souvenir sellers, sweet grandmothers selling "gata". It's fascinating, as I said, in my own way.

See it with your own eyes. How to roughly calculate, which costs how much: 1000 AD = 2.30 euros., I decided to round up to 2.5 euros., because it is easy to calculate. So the first digit times 5 and I get the sum in euros, or the divisions of 200, whichever is better, multiplication or division Also, at the airport you buy an internet card from $6 to $12. The internet is very good. From the airport you take a taxi, Yandex, GG, or just some uncle waiting to make some money.

The price is AD 5000-6000, approximately euros 15-20. I booked an apartment in the city center, the hotels seemed quite social to me. Car rental ATTENTION If you have no experience, if you don't feel confident, if you are not a good driver, if you have even the slightest doubt that it will be difficult, do NOT take this step.

I was looking for a car rental agency for a long time, they all wanted insane deposits of 600-700 euros (now I know why . I found a Russian agency that works with Georgia and Armenia, I give a link rentmotors.ru. You can reserve online. For three days, the rental was $190, and the deposit $260. Gasoline – 0.90 euros Don't be surprised by the numbers, the rental cars have Georgian registration.

Where to eat in Yerevan

There are many places, you can eat for $5, you can eat for $50. The food is extremely delicious! For smokers, I warn you, there is no smoking anywhere. In outdoor establishments, you can sit outside the establishment or in the park on a bench. On the other hand, they have thousands of types of e-cigarettes. What to bring as a souvenir Armenian cognac of course.

The choice is yours, prices from 5,000 to 300,000 AD, there are also small ones of 200-250 ml. at a price of around AD 1500-2000. Keep in mind that souvenirs and magnets are quite expensive compared to what we are used to. One magnet is from 2500 to 4600 AD. Don't be fooled into shopping at the free shop at the airport! Prices are for 3.
