Introduction

Armenia, a cradle of civilization. A land of unspoiled natural beauty, with its snow-peaked mountains, lush green valleys, life giving rivers and lakes. A land which has been constantly invaded by ancient civilizations, a battlefield for rivaling great empires, but also a land of prosperity and commerce.

The home land of all Armenians. A nation whose ancestral history dates back 2000 years B.C. A nation whose culture and arts influenced and intrigued other civilizations. Whose fine sculpture and world famous church architecture adorn the hills and plains of this great land.

In short, Armenia is literally an “Open Air Museum” set in one of the most beautiful and unspoiled regions of this big planet of ours, Earth.
