The museum is small, but there are explanatory informative texts in 3 languages, including Russian. Only ruins remain of the fortress, the stands at the top are faded, the view from the fortress is beautiful, at the houses and buildings of ordinary people.

I don't recommend it, there are no signs, no fences either. In general, nothing is clear and everything took about 15 minutes. A place in desolation

An attraction with enormous potential, located almost in the industrial zone. The ruins themselves make a depressing impression. The signs are all faded, some of them have been vandalized. It seems that no one has invested in the maintenance of the monument since the 70s. Garbage is not lying around openly, and thanks for that. It is very, very unfortunate that such an attitude towards the monument, which could have become the pearl of Yerevan.

The place itself is interesting, desolation, not well-groomed depressing. If it had been somewhere in Europe, it would have been done in a completely different way. The authorities of Yerevan failed!

Attention! If you take a taxi, drive in the museum, not the fortress, otherwise you will be taken to the exit and you will be bypassed! The place itself deserves attention and a decent assessment

This is not a fortress, but ruins. There is nothing interesting for an ordinary person here, only the site is of interest to archaeologists. Piled stones, restored walls, everything is overgrown.

We got to the fortress by public transport. We couldn't get on the tour. They examined it on their own. There are signs with the text, of course, but I would prefer a live story. The views are beautiful, the antiquity is amazing.

It's a good place. I advise you to put on a hat in sunny weather, there is probably almost nowhere to hide from the sun. Bags of construction debris made it a little difficult to take pictures. You can set aside the morning and take a walk there. Pay attention to the opening hours, they are not standard.

An interesting (albeit small) museum + the remains of the fortress itself. There is a carved cuneiform inscription in one of the walls of the fortress. As a bonus, a beautiful view of the city.

I came to the fortress at 16:10 everything is closed, no announcements. The working hours are written until 16:40, the last excursion is at 16:20. It was Wednesday, and they have a day off on Monday.

I spent one fabulous month in Armenia and kept my impressions of this ancient proud land for the rest of my life. I have not seen the Egyptian pyramids, I have not wandered around the Palace of Knossos. To my great regret… But a long time ago, I spent almost a whole day in one of the most ancient fortresses in the world. The Armenian people call it a place of power. And for a reason. It was here that the center of the small but very strong ancient state of Urartu was located for six centuries. The fortress is located on a hill with the name Arin-Berd, which means "Bloody Fortress". The name does not mean blood spilled here, it's just that poppies bloom in spring, and when they bloom, it seems that the whole hill is covered in blood. The fortress walls offer a beautiful view of ancient Yerevan. The feeling of belonging to almost three thousand years of history is difficult to convey in words.

It makes sense both to visit the museum at the foot of the hill and to wander through the ruins of the fortress. I advise you to book an excursion at the museum (you can do it in Russian), and to visit the fortress (of course, it's better to do all this in one day and start with the museum) choose a day that is not rainy and not too hot (or, at least, not the hottest time of the day). You need to climb to the fortress on foot, by stairs.

An incredibly strong place. You are in a story that is almost 3 thousand years old! An open-air city. Buildings are understandable. Frescoes have been preserved! It is terrible that the young vandals attributed and scribbled "Vasya was here." You definitely need to get to the museum and take a guide. It tells a story, not the composition of a pot or plate. A must-visit!
