PRAGUE – The Czech news portal Novinky.cz has ranked Armenia among its top five countries for travelers seeking authentic experiences in the East. The article highlights that these destinations are free from the crowds of mass tourism and offer more affordable prices compared to Central Europe.
The publication describes Armenia as a stunning country at the foot of the Caucasus Mountains and the cradle of Christianity, boasting unique cultural and natural attractions.
Among the highlights are the Khor Virap Monastery, with its breathtaking views of the biblical Mount Ararat, the serene Lake Sevan and Sevanavank Monastery, and the extraordinary Geghard Monastery, carved directly into the rock.
For wine enthusiasts, Armenia is a must-visit destination, being one of the oldest wine-producing regions in the world. Archaeological findings at the Areni-1 cave, dating back to 4100–4000 BC, have revealed the world’s oldest vineyard.
