Yerevan is a very walkable city with most attractions in the city center accessible on foot. The famous Cascade Complex features 572 steps, but escalators are available inside. The city has a metro system and affordable ride-hailing services for longer distances or when visiting sites further out.
Yerevan is considered very safe for travelers, with low crime rates even compared to many European capitals. The city is generally peaceful and welcoming. However, it's advisable to stay away from the border areas with Azerbaijan due to ongoing regional tensions.
Armenian cuisine offers unique flavors you shouldn't miss. Try khorovats (grilled meats), dolma (stuffed grape leaves), and lavash (traditional flatbread). For dessert, try gata, a traditional sweet bread or ghapama, a stuffed pumpkin dish. The country is also known for its ancient winemaking traditions and quality brandy.
The official currency in Armenia is the Armenian dram (AMD). ATMs are widely available throughout Yerevan, and credit cards are accepted in most restaurants, hotels, and shops in the city. However, it's advisable to carry cash for smaller purchases, street markets, and when traveling outside the capital.
Tipping is not traditionally common in Armenia, but it's becoming more expected in Yerevan's hospitality sector. In restaurants, a tip of 10 to 20 percent is appreciated for good service. Taxi drivers may round up slightly, but tipping isn't mandatory. Outside Yerevan, tipping is less common.
Armenian is the official language of Armenia, using its own unique alphabet created in 405 AD. Russian is also widely spoken throughout the country. In Yerevan, younger people and those working in the hospitality industry typically speak English, making communication easier for international visitors.
Armenia is widely-recognized as the first country to adopt Christianity as a state religion in 301 AD, and churches are important cultural sites. Dress modestly when visiting, covering shoulders and knees. Women may need to cover their heads in some churches. Remember that these are active places of worship deserving respectful behavior.
The best time to visit Yerevan is from mid-May to early June or late September to early October. Summers can be very hot, with temperatures sometimes reaching high levels in July and August. Winters are cold with possible snowfall. Spring and autumn offer pleasant weather ideal for exploring the city.
