Overlooked by the majestic, snow-capped Mount Ararat, Yerevan is the capital of Armenia. For stunning views of the city and mountain beyond, head to the top of the Grand Cascade (a multi-tiered system of stairs dotted with fountains and sculptures). Then head to the Armenian Genocide Memorial, History Museum of Armenia, and Cafesjian Centre for the Arts (housed in the Grand Cascade). Finish the day with khoravats (barbequed meats) and oghee (fruit vodka) at one of the traditional pandoks (taverns).
