Perched at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, Armenia is a land of ancient monasteries, volcanic landscapes, and surprisingly good wine. This small but proud nation – the first to adopt Christianity as its state religion – offers a compelling mix of religious heritage and Soviet-era relics. While celebrities like Cher and Kim Kardashian may claim Armenian heritage, the real stars here are the dramatic mountain vistas and some of the world’s oldest churches.
