The most beautiful places in Armenia

Jermuk

The city of Jermuk is one of the most beautiful places in Armenia, its name comes from the designation of hot healing mineral springs. Plain plateaus and picturesque stone formations acting in different places, alpine meadows and dense green forests create wonderful surroundings for relaxation and treatment in Armenia. It can be one of the most beautiful photography places in Armenia.

At the mouth of the Arpi River, which divides the city into two halves, a beautiful 70-meter Jermuk waterfall appeared, and in the gorge of the river “Stairway to Heaven” rises – an isolated rock formation at 100 meters high with sheer walls, which, according to legend, carved God Mithra (Mihr).

The healing properties of the mineral springs of Jermuk have been known to people since ancient times. On the territory of the city, the ruins of an ancient fortress erected in the II century were still preserved. In the Middle Ages, this place was the official hospital and resting place of the kings of Armenia.

Parz Lich

Parz Lich lake is one of the best photography places in Armenia. It’s a small lake high in the mountains of Armenia, closely surrounded by dense forests in Dilijan. The lake is rightly considered one of the most beautiful places in Armenia. The maximum depth of the lake is only 5 meters, but the water is so clear that the lake was called Clear or Transparent.

Zvartnots

In the village, which gave the name to the airport, against the background of a quite shabby kind of high-rise buildings, there are the ruins of a temple built in the 7th century, so magnificent in those days that the Byzantine emperor decided to build exactly the same in Constantinople. The temple, however, did not last long: in the 10th century it collapsed during an earthquake, and the ruins were excavated only at the beginning of the last century.

Noravank

Noravank is one of the best places in Armenia, located in a valley surrounded by bright red cliffs, the only road into it passes through a very narrow gorge formed by the same cliffs. In front of the monastery is a small garden with benches and a shade absolutely necessary for the Armenian summer, a great place for a picnic. By the way, not far from Noravank is the city of Yeghegnadzor, famous for the cheese of the same name.

All these huge historical and cultural heritage is surrounded by fantastic natural places – picturesque mountains, crystal lakes, flowering alpine meadows, green valleys, dense forests. Whether you visit ancient monasteries overlooking the mountainous surroundings, go to the picturesque Lake Sevan is up to you. However, Armenia will captivate anyone.
