'There's something for everyone' in Armenia, Forbes says

Forbes has named 10 reasons to visit Armenia. UNESCO World Heritage sites, amazing hiking and nature, Lake Sevan, Mount Ararat, impressive monuments, Ararat Brandy, Armenian wine, pure water, delicious fruit and Armenian bread are among the reasons to visit the country, according to Forbes Advisor.

“Armenia probably isn’t on the top of your bucket list, but it probably should be. No matter what kind of traveler you are, you’re sure to find something about Armenia to love: there’s tasty food, amazing UNESCO World Heritage sites, world-renowned brandy, unspoiled nature and better yet, you won’t have to share your experience with a bunch of other tourists around (at least not yet),” it says in a report.

The UNESCO World Heritage sites in Armenia include the Haghpat and Sanahin monasteries, the cathedral and churches of Echmiatsin and archaeological remains at Zvartnots, and the Monastery of Geghard.

“Armenia isn’t only known for its brandy; it has some popular and delicious wines too. Armenians have grown grapes and produced a variety of wines for centuries. In fact, the world’s oldest known winery, Areni, was discovered in an Armenian cave. There’s an operating winery known by the same name,” Forbes says.

“Armenia is a hidden gem in the Caucasus region, offering visitors a blend of history, culture, nature and gastronomy. With its numerous UNESCO sites, including monasteries and churches, Armenia is a treasure trove for history buffs. The country’s signature Ararat brandy and wine, along with its delicious fruit and bread, make Armenia a paradise for food lovers. The stunning Lake Sevan and vast natural landscapes provide ample opportunities for outdoor enthusiasts to explore and indulge in adventurous activities. Armenia is a destination worth visiting, with something to offer everyone,” reads the report.
