This time I want to start with general impressions. The fact is that Armenia is a rather contrasting country, not only relative to others, but even within itself.

The peak of Mount Ararat, sacred to Armenians. By the way, this is a volcano, and it has been located on the territory of Turkey since 1921, being its highest point. But the geopolitical location does not play any role, because according to the Bible (Genesis 8 verse 4): "And the ark stopped in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the mountains of Ararat"
