The Republic of Armenia is a republic in the Transcaucasian region of Western Asia, considered part of Eastern Europe, with its capital in Yerevan

The country is located between the Black Sea. The Republic of Armenia is a republic in the Transcaucasian region of Western Asia, considered part of Eastern Europe, with its capital in Yerevan. The country is located between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, bordered by Turkey to the west, Georgia to the north, Azerbaijan to the east, and Iran and the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan to the south. Armenia is one of the oldest traditional Christian countries. Armenia has rich tourist resources, the most important of which are various ancient buildings. Etchmiadzin Cathedral is the first church in Armenia, built between 301-303, and is considered the oldest cathedral in the world. The large and wide dome patterns and murals intersect, with crystal lights hanging high, very gorgeous. There are two monasteries in Etchmiadzin, not far apart. It is recommended to take a car to the end to Etchmiadzin Monastery, which is the oldest cathedral in the world. There are not many people in this monastery, and it is easy to take beautiful photos. When we went, something was going on there, I didn't quite understand.
