5th edition Published: 12th Dec 18 432 pages Armenia is in many ways an enigma:
a strongly Christian country yet ruled for most of the last 2,000 years by
outsiders who were not Christian; a country where the symbol of Mount Ararat is
omnipresent even though the biblical mountain is now in Turkey; a country where
the cooking is Middle Eastern but the street life southern European. Bradt's
Armenia guides you to the country's many monasteries, Selim caravanserai, the
field of 900 intricately carved cross-stones at Noratus, the petroglyphs of
Mount Ishkhanasar and the museums and markets of Yerevan. There is extensive
information about natural history and the arts as well all the practical
information needed to explore this fascinating country.
