  I got to appreciate the visit to this interesting museum thanks to a very passionate local guide of his country. Many precious archaeological finds that testify to the cradle of this extremely evolved civilization. There is also the recent discovery of the oldest shoe found in the Armenian mountains. Don't miss it!

  Very unique collection and will be extremely lovable by those who are into museum. The sad part of the visit is you don't get to click any photos inside nor you can use a stroller, the staff are very friendly and guide you easily throughout the museum which is a lot of walking. If you are going there with kids, be wary of carrying them otherwise skip it as it will tire you to the core, but definitely a place to visit and see some historical artifacts.
