In Armenia we were unfortunately much shorter than it would have been appropriate, because we liked the country very much, and of the few days we spent half of it in a great Bed&Breakfast with pool and view into the valley. We were tired and really needed a few days of relaxation. The trip to the south of Armenia was cancelled for that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But even so we got to know some nice places. People anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The first is Alawerdi, a small town in the north where two of the three engineers of the Russian MiG grew up. There is a MiG museum which unfortunately was closed. But the MiG on display in the courtyard together with some steles and busts alone was worth the visit. Very impressive and nicely done. Only a few meters (and altitude) further on there is also an old but well preserved monastery where we roamed around for a long time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
