Armenia is a small, landlocked country in the Caucasus region. Although it is geographically in Asia (Eurasia), Armenia has a very European feel similar to that of its neighbour Georgia.
It borders Georgia to the north, Azerbaijan to the east, Iran to ther south, and Turkey to the west. Along with Georgia it is considered a Christian country unlike its other Muslim neighbours.
There are lots of interesting things to see and do in Armenia from ancient temples and monasteries to hiking in beautiful mountain scenery and exploring its interesting towns and cities.
Armenia has been producing wine for thousands of years and the Areni wine region is a must-visit for wine-lovers.
