Ah, Yerevan. Known by monikers, like the capital of all Armenians, or the Pink City, Yerevan is often compared to European cities for its cafe-lined sidewalks, museums, shopping, sculpture gardens, decorative water fountains, and increasing appeal as a destination for international travelers. But Yerevan and Yerevantsis, locals of Yerevan, also have a certain air about them that can’t be compared to Europe or any other place for that matter.
A city undergoing significant urban and cultural transformations right now, Yerevan maintains its own unique style, its own ham u hot – taste and smell. If slow travel is your thing, that is, taking time to explore local history and culture using eco-friendly modes of transport like walking, then Yerevan is just for you. This is your itinerary for the perfect, slow Sunday (or any day of the week, really) in Yerevan.
