Met at Yerevan airport, then a first evening in a city built of rose-coloured stone.
Your driver meets you at Yerevan airport and takes you to your hotel in the city centre. Yerevan is known as the pink city for the tuff stone of its buildings, which turns rose-coloured at sunset.
You receive your room and have the rest of the day to rest, or to stroll to Republic Square, where the fountains are lit after dark.
Alojamiento: Yerevan
Two ancient churches in the morning, the Cascade and the old squares in the afternoon.
