Re: What is it like...

What part of Armenia do you personally suggest that I visit?

The mountains of Tilijan are superb! I would visit there, then Gyumri, which is the 2nd largest city up on the north part of Armenia. Then Girovagan, but do not forget to visit Etchmiadsin, built in 303 AD, and also Vayots Dsor and Jermuk. Jermuk is beautiful and you can repose there and take a good rest by Jermuk's falls. Then you must go to Artsakh, unfortunately I haven't seen it yet and it's a must!!! Enjoy the beauty of Armenia and have a safe trip and while you're at it take me with you!!

You can see a lot in a short time! Go to Yerevan first and there will be lots of places around it you can easily get to. Garni is worth a visit to plus sevan. There is hardly anywhere in Armenia where you can endup and not find a piece of history and natural beuty side by side.

Re: What is it like...

Before I read up on articles on Armenia, I honestly did
not know anything about Armenia itself. Armenia has had
a harsh past, but each part of its history is like a puzzle,
you have to read from many legit sources to find out the
truth.

A small introduction about me:...I'm learning the language and plan to earn my PhD in Ancient Armenian history. I don't know why I'm so interested in Armenia...

Because Armenian blood runs deep in you............the history of an epic survival of a remarkable people against all odds.

Hi Julia and welcome. I think everyone of us can say so many things about Armenia (most of it good of course), however, essentially it will come down to you personally to visit Armenia and see it for yourself with your own eyes and take it from there.

It is after all, like so many things, a personal choice and opinion. Having said that here is a personal opinion - glad you have taken such keen interest in your Armenian heritage!

A small introduction about me: I'm only 1/4 Armenian, but I'm learning the language and plan to earn my PhD in Ancient Armenian history. I don't know why I'm so interested in Armenia, however. I came here to learn all I can.
