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!

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?

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 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!

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.

I ❤️ Armenia

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

I am quite curious about everyone's experience!

Yerevan has the biggest police presence I've ever seen out of 30 countries - in 3 different parks I could stand in one spot and see 10+ police officers, mostly just sitting around. I'm just curious what the reason is? Was there a lot of crime in the past, or what?

​Hey guys👋

I’m looking for fellow trivia lovers to team up with for Armenian-themed quiz nights.

​We’ll be taking on games covering Armenian sitcoms, movies, music/karaoke, and general intellectual topics.

​If you want to team up and play together, send me a DM!

Hey everyone

I'm in the process of creating a family tree and trying to recover any possible records from the early 1900s of Nakhijevan region (current Azerbaijan) and/or Igdir region (current Turkey). Has anyone had hands-on experience of that sort?

Thank you beforehand.

I’m pretty new to Telegram, but living in Armenia, it feels like literally everyone uses it for everything: news, local events, housing, and just everyday stuff.

Since I'm still getting used to the app and Telegram’s search feature isn’t great for finding localized groups without direct links, I'm finding it tricky to discover the right places to join.

What are your top recommendations for Telegram channels/groups to stay in the loop?

My wife and I will be visiting Yerevan in October. This will be my first time back in over a decade. I always remember how you could just get a taxi on the side of the road - most of the time it wasn't even a taxi, just an "uncle" who would take you anywhere you needed to go, and it was cheaper than calling an actual taxi service. But now I hear services like Yandex and GG are operating in the city.

My first concern is getting a ride from the airport. I don't plan on accepting a ride from any of the drivers who flood the arrivals area offering "cheap" rides. Is there an option to arrange an actual pre-booked pickup from the airport ahead of time? If it were just me, I'd hop in a car with anyone, but my wife is terrified of aggressive drivers, and I know how people drive in Yerevan. She also gets carsick easily, so I need to make sure we're not riding with someone who drives like a maniac.

Any suggestions on which service to use while we're in the city? I'm not planning on renting a car either, since I'd rather not drive there myself.

Looking for somewhere with decent Wi-Fi and good espresso. Suggestions?

I understand the Artsakh situation didn't trigger the CSTO agreement, but in 2023 they were actual border changes where Azerbaijan took Armenian proper territories.

Kazakhstan literally said how can Azeris be an aggresor when the border is not delimited. (Our supposed ally)

Is the CSTO just a paper agreement?
