Other things to note Useful information about Armenia Safety – for many reasons, we can say that Yerevan is one of the safest cities in the world. It is much safer to walk the streets here late at night than in many European cities during the day. There seem to be no robbers and bandits in Yerevan at all, or they are all in prison. In fact, the crime rate is very low and usually escapes the eyes of the average tourist. For example, we can leave the car on the street with unlocked doors, and then find it untouched and undamaged. A tourist, like any other ordinary citizen, feels completely safe. Orientation – it is very easy to navigate the city, even if you are here for the first time, you do not have a map or no one to help you. Such a situation is unlikely, and it is unlikely to get lost in Yerevan. The city is small (excluding the outskirts and distant areas of the city); the city center consists of ring roads and intersecting streets. The streets are filled with vehicles: so-called minibuses, buses and taxis. However, you can get to the place without using public transport, since the distances between places are not very large and you can get there on foot. If you do get lost, you can stop any passerby and ask for directions, and be sure that he will go with you and show you the place you need. Currency – national currency – Armenian dram. In shops and other shopping centers, trade is carried out only in the national currency. There are no problems with the exchange of foreign currency, as almost everywhere and in many stores there are exchange offices where you can exchange any currency. Credit cards can be used in large shopping centers in Armenia. There are also several banks and ATMs where you can withdraw money. Credit cards are accepted in restaurants and cafes. Tips – there are places where tips are included in the price and average 5-7%. In this case, you don't need to leave a tip. In other cases, it is customary to leave a tip averaging 10% of the cost. Language – Armenian is the official language in Armenia. In Yerevan, many people (mostly young people) speak English, French, German, and Spanish. Most of the population speaks Russian almost fluently. Language difficulties can only occur in some very remote villages, and even then, not often. There is no language barrier in Armenia. Traffic – tourists usually note one single drawback in Yerevan – street traffic. The city is not designed for so many cars, so the streets are often crowded. Although traffic jams are rare here, the abundance of cars does not harmonize with the comfortable streets of Yerevan. That's why it's better to walk the streets than to take a public bus. Transportation – minibuses move one after another, without stops. Just raise your hand and stop the number you want, pay 100 drams and you can go wherever you want. Although it is better to take a taxi, which is rich in Yerevan. Taxis are very easy and very cheap. Food – you can eat almost everywhere. Wherever you are in the city, every 100 meters you will find a snack bar, cafe or restaurant. If you are in the city center, you can find a place to eat every 10 meters. Here you can find any national cuisine: Armenian, Arabic, Georgian, European and Chinese. Prices may vary. In general, eating well in Yerevan will cost you less than in Europe. Water - water can be bought in any grocery store, all brands are Armenian-made. You can also open the faucet in the hotel or in the house and drink running water. It is absolutely safe to drink and even tasty. On the streets and in the courtyards of Yerevan you can see certain water sources, which in colloquial Armenian are called "pulpulak". A unique one-meter-high bubble jet offers clean and delicious Armenian water. Come closer and have a drink. It's absolutely free. General: it is better to buy souvenirs in the open air "Vernissage", which is open on Saturdays and Sundays. Armenian cognac is best at the Yerevan Cognac Factory. The lowest prices and the highest quality are guaranteed here. You can buy wine in every store and at the winery. Most of Armenia is located in the highlands (from 1000 to 2500 m above sea level), so it is advisable to have warm clothes with you.
