The First Christian Nation

Nestled in the South Caucasus, Armenia is a small country with a colossal soul. Home to the world's oldest winery (6,100 years!), the first nation to adopt Christianity as a state religion (301 AD), and an alphabet unique to its people.

From the snow-capped peak of Mount Ararat to the shimmering waters of Lake Sevan, every corner tells a story. The Armenian people are known for their legendary hospitality — expect to be treated like family, fed like a king, and sent home with memories that last a lifetime.
