in photography •  7 years ago  (edited)

Yerevan is the capital of Armenia that was founded in 782 BC. Armenians are said to be the first to adopt Christianity in 301 AD. City of Yerevan gets its name "Vardaguyn K'aghak" (which translated means "rose city" or "pink city") from the the stone that was used in buildings.

According to the Bible Noah's Ark landed on Mount Ararat that was once on Armenian land, and is still viable from Yerevan creating a breathtaking view for the citizens and visitors.

If you would like to get more information on Yerevan please feel free to visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yerevan site.
I would DEFINITELY recommend to visit Yerevan and the other parts of Armenia as they are as beautiful.
Please see some beautiful pictures of the city below.
