About

Located on the main square of Yerevan, the National Gallery of Armenia is more than a museum — it is a gateway into the world of art, where centuries and cultures intertwine. Everyone will find something here, from admirers of ancient Armenian miniatures to fans of the European avant-garde. The gallery holds the largest collection of Armenian artists, including Ivan Aivazovsky, Martiros Saryan, Minas Avetisyan, and Hakob Hovnatanyan, as well as European painters from Rubens and Rembrandt to the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists. You will also find a collection of Russian painting, with works by Repin, Chagall, Serov, and others. The gallery regularly hosts exhibitions of contemporary artists, offering a fresh look at current trends in art. Temporary displays are also frequent, and information about them can be found on the website.

The atmosphere here is one of a kind, with spacious halls to enjoy the paintings and, of course, the historic building itself in the very center of Yerevan.

Taxi: In short: around the city it's convenient to order a car through an available app. For a remote place, plan your return in advance.

What to do: agree on the wait, the trip back, and the price before you set off; have a backup way to pay.

Common mistake: going "one way only" with no plan for how to get back in the evening or without a signal.

Next: between cities.

Car (your own or rental): In short: before renting, decide whether you actually need a car for your route, season, and driving experience.

What to consider: city traffic vs mountain and winter sections; insurance and deposit terms; where to park near your destination. There are many cameras on the roads; check fines and payment against the rental rules and local regulations — don't put it off "until you leave the country" without checking the contract.

A common mistake: renting a car "just in case" without checking the season and the return trip from a remote location.

Next: between cities.
