Hi everyone! I (m28) and my partner (f25) are going to visit Yerevan late July /early August. I'd love some insider recommendations of what to do / what to avoid. We like visiting historical sites and eating local food where local people eat, not tourist traps. Also, any nice bars / pubs to recommend would be a plus. We're looking to stay in the city center but if there are places you'd recommend I'd love that too. Thanks all!

Hi! We will be travelling to Yerevan next week and I just want to come prepared for the weather.

Is there snow right now in Yerevan or just completely cold? Would appreciate pictures for reference as well. Thank you!

Hi guys..im looking for recommendations of tattoo artists in Yerevan if anyone who's who are good and not super expensive? Thank you!

Is it possible to do a MacBook trade-in in iStore or iSpace in Yerevan?

Hi, would love to get one. There are of course many on AliExpress for 300-1000 AMD, but are there any shops selling some at a similar price? Thanks!

It's a gift/surprise for a friend.

Hey peeps. We have temporarily relocated from Germany to Yerevan. I’m looking for a pediatrician/clinic for our half a year old baby. Ideally someone who is familiar with the German health care system.

This morning I used the Yerevan metro for the first time in 2025. The QR ticket that I bought on December 23rd was rejected. It had expired on December 31st. I bought a single new QR ticket, and its validity is only FOUR days! I normally would buy 10 tickets on Monday morning and use them during the week, a very convenient way of doing it. But now, with a validity of four days, this is not possible. Are they trying to force users over to the online system by shortening the validity period of the tickets? And for those saying 'switch to the on line system', the TelCell system does not allow foreign passport holders to register. This has been a problem since the introduction of the new system. Any comments to all this welcome!

Hello! Can anyone here explain how the ticketing or the new payment system works for buses? I’ve taken the bus a few times before, but I read online that there’s a new system in place (QR tickets, should only use 100 coin, and card payments??). I’m a foreigner based in Yerevan for work, and I cant seem to find any reliable info in English online. Thanks in advance!

Hello all! I will be visiting Armenia soon and haven’t yet gotten a place to stay. I was thinking of an Airbnb, but given that it’s winter I think hotels will have better heating.

I would like to know your opinion on President Hotel (formerly known as Hrazdan). Has anyone stayed there recently? The reviews are saying that the rooms are spacious and the views are great and it’s in a quiet location, away from the city traffic. These are all pros for me.

Some negative reviews say that the staff aren’t very friendly and the rooms are old and some complain about the bed sheets being too thin. But those are not very recent reviews.

Has anyone stayed there recently? Would you recommend? I honestly don’t care about the hotel staff being rude or not nice, as long as the bed is comfy and the room is spacious and the towels/sheets are up to 3 or 4 star hotel standards, I will be happy. Thank you!

Hi all

Looking for some local knowledge.

I land in Yerevan for a trip next year, only there overnight but heading off to hike/climb around Sevan and Dilijan.

Will be in Yerevan in the evening and morning before catching a bus to Dilijan.

Looking to stay in the NW of the city (nearer to the Northern bus station)

Main question is, I want to have a traditional Armenia. Breakfast on the first morning, anyone any suggestions of a good place to experience an Armenian breakfast?

Also I wondered if there are any kayak/SUP trips run on the Hrazdan river in the city, probably not but I thought I would ask.

If there is one thing that I must see in my short visit to Yerevan what should it be?

Hi everyone! I’m looking for recommendations for the best cafes in Yerevan. Can you share the ones you think are the best? Thanks in advance!

Hello folks,

About 4 months ago I went through an orthopedic surgery, which was followed by post-op rehab back in US done both by me at home and a physical therapist twice a week.

My PT back home wants me to continue seeing a PT twice a week while I am in Armenia as well. I went and saw one today. The price I was quoted was 10K drams for a 15-minute session. I think it’s obscene to pay that much in Armenia for PT. In US the PT clinic I go to has a cash rate of $95 for 40 minutes (for those who don’t have health insurance) and that’s in San Francisco - a very expensive area.

Can someone please recommend me a good physical therapy place in Yerevan that charges reasonable rates?

Thank you all so much in advance!

My friend is going to Yerevan and needs long term accomodation preferably somewhere where they could work in exchange for accomodation while they get settled. If not one of the student type places would be good as well. I left Yerevan a while ago and people I reached out to have also left so I don't have many contacts around. Does anyone have any recommendations? Could be Dilijan or Gyumri if anyone knows about anything there. Thank you in advance.

Hi

I am coming for 2 days to yerevan for work trip on 3rd and 4th Dec. I need a translator who understands English and the local language. Will only be in the main city - around a few local shops.

Will be needing from 10am to 6pm only.

Please let me know if anyone can help or knows anyone who can help. Also let me know the charges.

It looks like most stores in Yerevan carry Diesel tops, what about Diesel denim pants? Does anyone know of a store that carries those?

What about other popular designer jeans, like G-Star?

And now more general, if the above two are not common in Yerevan, what’s a good store to buy high quality European or American denim clothing?

Thank you all 🙏🏻

I’m looking for a clinic that offers remote consultations before the procedure, like creating a treatment plan based on the x-rays I provide, figure out a schedule in advance, etc.

What are the best dental clinics in Yerevan? I came across Avanta and White Castle while searching this sub, but are there any other recommendations that I’m missing?

Can anyone recommend a good nursery for under 2 year olds?

Looking for a safe, positive environment. Not old-school in other words.

Hello! I am looking for a girl/ woman to rent an apartment and share the rent.it is important for her to be responsible and tidy. About us- I am going to live with my mom. Both of us work so we’re not going to be home much. Considering flats near Kentron/ metro stations.

same as title.

Top 3 bars in yerevan.

Tripadvisor is great for restaurants and hotels. What about other stuff like dry cleaning services, pharmacies, supermarkets, etc?

Is Yandex Maps the way to go? Google doesn’t seem to have all the listings, but maybe it’s the area that I am im that doesn’t have much going on.

Would appreciate advice/thoughts:)

I just wanted to complain of the terrible air quality in Yerevan. We're close to dangrous levels now. AQI 170 is not even funny.

After a bit of research the main reason behind it is car emissions. Not only we drive junkyard-grade cars from the west, we also REMOVE the goddamn catalizers from it! Things that are significantly reducing the bad emissions from a car.

How can the entire nation be so shortsighted to buy a car and immediately remove the catalizer from it?

How can I pay for on-street parking for a car with foreign (Georgia) license plates? I dried the iDRAM website (https://www.idram.am/) but it does not accept Georgia license plate numbers.
