==============================We invite you to visit Armenia -
a country that offers a fascinating insight into the cultural and
historical interactions of West and East. To many Westerners the word
Armenia is evocative of the image of the land far away and long ago,
of Noah's Ark and Biblical Mount Ararat, a very ancient civilization
and a cross road of commercial and military ties of East and West.
Armenia is often described as an outdoor museum. There are over 4000
historical monuments that have preserved here: cyclopean monuments,
pagan temples, ancient Christian churches and medieval monasteries
are scattered all around this beautiful land of mountain peaks and
fertile valleys, crystal-clear lakes and turbulent rivers.
All these natural characteristics have dictated the location of towns
and caravan routes as well as fortresses, bridges and aqueducts on
the Great Silk Road. Armenians are of Indo-European origin and their
statehood goes back to the powerful Urartu Kingdom of the 9th century
BC. Their present day alphabet that consists of 39 letters dates back
to 405 AD. The people of Armenia are very friendly and hospitable as
well as hard working and intelligent. Armenian cooking is exciting
and Armenian wines and brandies are legendary - Winston Churchill
drank Armenian brandy regularly!
You don't have to be an Armenian to be thrilled by the sight of Mount
Ararat, sitting alone on the plains like an exiled monarch just outside
the border. It is a sight to remember forever!The Republic of Armenia
is situated in the southern part of the Caucasus between watersheds
of middle streams of the Araks and Kura Rivers.The territory of the
Republic is 29,800 sq. km. It occupies the southern part of a vast
highland area known as Armenian Upland, which is located within
the Alpine-Himalayan mountain system. The average elevation of the
Armenian Upland is 1,800 meters above sea level.
Ancient geographers called the Armenian Upland the Roof of Asia
Minor.In the structure of mountain ridges extinct volcanoes
play an essential role. Their activity left its mark on Armenian
nature.Biblical Mount Ararat dominates the Armenian Upland. It is
isolated from the ridges and plateaus and rises above the surrounding
plains for more than 4 kilometres. The massif consists of two extinct
volcanoes - Greater Ararat (Masis), having a height of 5,165 meters,
and Little or Lesser Ararat (Sis), at 3925 meters. Their peaks are
located at a distance of 10 kilometers from each other.Ararat is
amazingly beautiful. It has attracted travellers since ancient times.
The most wonderful view of Mount Ararat is from the northern vicinity
of Yerevan - the capital of the Republic of Armenia. The Armenian
landscape is very picturesque and rich in numerous cultural monuments,
such as rock drawings, cave towns, excavations of ancient cities and
Palaeolithic settlements, remnants of the most ancient observatories
and metallurgical centres, creations of old and Medieval Armenian
masters (temples, cloisters and fortresses) and modern architectural
ensembles.Armenia is one of those rare countries that, though small
in territory, is notable for its complexity and rich diversity of its
geological structures.The people and races that have populated the
Armenian highland whose origin stretches into the unknown millennia of
prehistory have provided the human substance for its culture. Being
on the crossroad of Asia and Europe the country served as a bridge
joining both geographically as well as culturally Iran and Indo-China
with European civilization - Armenia synthesized the best traditions
of Arts, music and architecture of its neighbors and gave them a new
interpretation.Adoption of Christianity as State religion later in
301 as well as the invention of the Armenian alphabet in 405 gave
new stimuli to development of unique cultural traditions here. The
oldest parchment manuscript dates back to early 5th c. The majority
of manuscripts are research works of ancient scholars on astrology,
alchemy, geography, history, medicine, poetry and musical arts.Armenia
has over 4,000 historical monuments, which cover various periods of the
countrys development from prehistoric to Hellenistic era, from early
to medieval Christian era. The stone carved crosses and cathedrals
may recall the European Renaissance.Comparisons and discoveries are
a continual delight throughout the arts in this magical country.See
Armenia with the people who know it best!
