What to see in Armenia in May?
May is a great time for out-of-town excursions, acquaintance with the rich nature and unique landscapes of Armenia. One of the peculiarities of Armenia is the presence of many historical attractions directly under the open sky, so that nature recreation can be combined with interesting and informative excursions. It is difficult to list all the “treasures” of Armenia, all the places to visit that are worth of visiting: there is the ancient pagan temple of Garni, Geghard monastery carved in the rock, Tatev monastery, where you can also find the world’s longest uninterrupted cable way, and much more.

Spring 2023 gave to Armenia warmer weather than usual. Thus, the average air temperature in Yerevan in May will vary within 18-21 о C, and by the end of the month it will be firmly established at the level of 24-25 о C. In mountainous areas, it can be cooler, but this has its pluses – because the absence of exhausting heat will create the most comfortable conditions for walking tours. Rains in May, in general, are short-term, so they will not become an obstacle to your full rest.
Holidays and events in May
May in Armenia is called “the month of victories”, because during this period there are several holidays, marking important historical events. To already traditional Day of Workers (May 1) and Victory Day (May 9) a few more significant days have been added over the last couple of decades: May 8 – Yerkrapah Day (the union of Armenian volunteers who defended the integrity and independence of the country in the 90’s, in the period of formation).
May 28 – Republic Day (a holiday dedicated to the proclamation of the first Republic of Armenia). May holidays are usually accompanied with the organization of a variety of cultural and entertainment events, concerts and fireworks all over Yerevan, and in May 2023, of course, will not be an exception.
