Nice place
But to see the mountains you must go at good whether

The iconic place of Armenia. It is mandatory to visit, but preferably on those days when Ararat is visible. Because a visit to the monastery, without a magnificent view of the Big and Small Ararat, will not be so memorable. As they write, when Tsar Nicholas I did not enjoy the view of Ararat, the mountains hid in the fog for several days and the autocrat was very offended. After all, the King had the honor of visiting him, but Ararat did not deign to pay attention to him. Do not repeat his mistakes, enjoy both the historical place and the magnificent view!

To put it mildly, we were not welcome. We arrived early in the morning and quietly, calmly photographed the view of the mountain. People who came to work on the territory did not greet in return and generally looked at them angrily. Naturally, the market was still closed, so we didn't have time to sell anything.
In the reviews, someone wrote that they cheat in the parking lot - it's free there. We arrived, apparently, too early for this and calmly left the car downstairs.
And yet, the locals treat animals cruelly. They have kittens in the territory barely alive, if they are still alive at all. We learned that the locals don't like cats as a whole, as a species.
UPD: Note to tourists: they delete negative reviews, so I'll change my 3 to 1
