Caucasus · Destination guide
The world’s first Christian nation, still singing.
Armenia wears its 1,700 years of Christianity in stone: monasteries wedged into cliff faces, khachkar crosses carved like lace, and Mount Ararat presiding over Yerevan’s café terraces from across the border. The capital is pink-stoned, walkable and disarmingly good fun.
Three hours from the Gulf, it makes a superb short break with substance — Geghard’s rock-hewn chapels, the world’s longest reversible cable car swinging up to Tatev, Lake Sevan’s high-altitude blue, and brandy tastings at the cellars Churchill famously favoured.
Where to go
Café-filled pink-stone capital with Ararat on the skyline.
The high-altitude “Armenian sea” and its peninsula monastery.
