Extraordinary Armenia: An Underrated Country with Plenty to Offer

Here is my Armenia trip report from when I visited in October 2022

I visited Armenia in the fall of 2022 with few expectations. At first glance, tourism in Armenia seemed limited to the Armenian diaspora or Russians who were coming in by the droves to escape the Ukraine war draft. I hadn’t expected it to be such a delightfully easy country to travel around, and I didn’t plan to fall in love with it. Although I had initially planned on visiting in 2008, what…

Garni Temple

Looking like a mini-Parthenon, the temple at Garni is the only Graeco-Roman type structure in the whole of Armenia. The temple is on a triangle of land thrusting out above the Azat River. This is a naturally defensible position above a spectacular gorge where I saw basalt columns, similar to the Giant’s Causeway in Northern Ireland.

The Temple of Garni, Armenia The 24 pillars of the temple symbolize the 24 hours of the day, while the steps leading to the temple are so tall and arduous to ascend that upon reaching the top, it's difficult to fathom having climbed merely nine steps. The height of these stairs is intentional; even the most fit and tallest individual, ascending the temple, must bow with each step. The solemn ascent demands a deliberate pace—running up the stairs is impossible; one must instead bow in reverence and contemplate with each step.
