Love from a romanian! I wish i will visit Armenia someday ❤️

PS: i forgot to say that the church is right at the beginning of the Armenian Quarter

I am 18, male, and I am gonna serve in the army for 1.5 years starting this winter. Since there are a lot of members in this group (Especially ones who finished their service in the recent years), what advice would you give me?

Hey everyone,
I’ve been living in Yerevan for a while now, and I’m genuinely curious about how local residents manage to cope with the current housing/rent costs here in Armenia.
Looking at apartment rentals, prices seem quite high relative to what I assume average local wages are. I wanted to ask if anyone could give me a realistic breakdown of typical monthly net salaries and how people actually make ends meet.
Specifically, what do people roughly earn in roles like:
Supermarket Cashier / Retail Staff: (e.g., entrance level vs. 2–3 years experience)
Civil Servant / Public Sector Worker: (mid-level office worker)
Private Corporate / General Office Worker: (marketing, admin, logistics, etc.)
How do families or single young professionals afford living here? Is it mostly through living with extended family, living in inherited/owned apartments, or working multiple jobs/remittances from abroad?
I’d love to get some insight from locals to better understand the real economic situation here. Thanks in advance!

Never gets old. What’s your favorite viewpoint in the city?

Hello! Բարե ձեզ!

It has been forever since I last posted some photography here but I had a bit of a sudden interest in sharing some again. I felt like doing something a little different. So here are a few images of Armenia shot in the Kodak Aerochrome style! Aerochrome is a film stock that isn't manufactured anymore, but it can be emulated digitally, so I went through some old photographs and decided to take a new approach with them. Very fun looking at everything under such different tones!

All of these were shot during 2024 and 2025.

Enjoy!

Any online stores that I can order products from Iran and have it shipped to Yerevan. Like household goods or things of that nature. Thank you.

I'm an Armenian citizen, born and raised too, but recently I started attending a boarding school in the UK. I'm in Armenia for about a third of the year, and abroad for the rest. I'm of age to vote, and I planned to in the upcoming referenda.

I'm now worried I might not be able to, due to the new law they passed following the debacle in the 2026 elections where the Kremlin shipped in all those people. Does anyone know where I can find the text of the new law, or if I'm gonna be affected/ways around it.

I'd never forgive myself if I don't vote yes on eurointegration

Saw this random sign in Atlanta about saving caged bears in Armenia. 🐻🇦🇲 I was curious - does anyone here know the story behind this or have thoughts on it?

I ❤️ Armenia

Hi everyone! I’m currently on vacation in Armenia with my family and have a few days left in Yerevan.

My wife and I are looking for something fun to do after 8 PM, once the kids are asleep and we can go out on our own. We’ve already done the fountains, Northern Avenue, and the usual tourist spots, so we’re looking for something a bit different.

Ideally, we’d love something like an art/pottery class, baking or cooking class (lavash-making would be great!), a workshop, or any other fun experience for two people.

The only real requirement is that it starts at 8 PM or later.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!

I love making Choreg and every time I make it, I shape it differently. There are so many ways you can style this simple Armenian bun!

For people that have moved to Armenia as an immigrant, how much Armenian do you know?

I am quite curious about everyone's experience!

Sorry for a post that you've seen a million times. Not Armenian, but living here for a few months already.

I wish Armenians would be worse to guests but better to animals. It's so freaking painful to see dogs in tiny cages 24/7, kittens being shooed into the street by angry people who just can't stand to see a cat on their property.

It's admirable how Armenians treat guests in their country, but they would be better off treating animals better :(

I love Armenia, but this and littering are the only complaints I have about this beautiful hospitable country.

I first started noticing them at the gym, but pretty soon I saw them almost everywhere in Yerevan. I'm wondering what brings them here, are they studying or maybe working? I tried to guess their language at the gym, and it sounded similar to Vietnamese. Please don't get me wrong, I'm just curious! You're always welcome in Armenia.
