Hello, now kite teruskan perjalan kita ke Yerevan, Armenia. Actually, i tak tahu pon pasal ada negara nama Armenia kt bumi nie until i went to this trip haha poor me. But, Alhamdulillah, i've got a chance been there and discovered the beautiful of Armenia.
20 Jan
Kami menuju ke Yerevan (the capital of Armenia) dgn kereta api from Tbilisi, Georgia. The train took almost 10 hours journey from 8.30am-6.30am. Harga tiket utk train bg i mahal (78gel, utk bilik berempat, klu convert rm hampir rm120 kot), pastu toilet berbau 😞 ,tiada cafe, dalam bilik panas (heater kuat sgt), overall i tak suka naik train tu and yusuf pon tak dpt tido nenyak mlm tu sbb panas huhu.
Pada pkl 12.30am, train sampai kt border Armenia, so kami semua yg nak masuk ke sana kene turun and kene pegi cop and beli visa kt imegresen Armenia. Nasib baik baik dekat jee jalan sikit dah sampai office dia, tp serius arrr muka semua pegawai and askar mmg serius, garang, tegas dgn pakai baju askar tebal topi dia yg unik tu mmg cuak jgk arr, yusuf pon behave jee tak nangis mase tgh dlm proses cop tue.. 😅 Btw visa utk masuk ke Armenia, kene byr 7 dollar utk 18 tahun ke atas, below than that free. Selepas dah settle kat imegresen, askar tue hntr kami balik ke train, slps tue baru laa senyum haha td sblm cop kemain muka mcm nk mkn org 😂.
Lebih kurang pukul 6am, kami sampai ke Yerevan Train Station.. Sejuk sangat, tak tahu laa suhu negatif brape, walaupon ddk dlm terminal tp rse sejuk dia tue mmg sampai ke tulang huhu 😖.. Pastu kami tggu dlm bilik waiting area yg ade heater baru laa rasa lega huuu.. Rehat n tido kjp kt situ sampai pkl 9am. Lps tu kebetulan ada teksi yg mmg dh tggu dr kami sampai td, terus ambik dia utk jd tour guide and harga dia bg pon agak murah jgk..
So first place yg kami pergi ialah Lake Sevan. SubhanaAllah mcm tgk dlm gambar pemandangan dia, cantik dan damai suggh ciptaan Allah. Suhu kt atas nie dlm -7 rasanya mmg sejuk tp sbb nk ambik gambar lawa kene laa panjat jgk.. We spent around 1 hour here, and continue our journey to second location which is Geghard Monestry. Actually sbb cuaca sgt sejuk jd i dgn yusuf tak masuk and just tggu dlm kereta je. Dah takde upaya nak lawan cuaca sejuk dgn bawak baby lg mmg takpayah la haa.. Dpt tgk Lake Sevan pon dan puas.
Last place is Temple of Garni. Tmpt ni pon i tak masuk haha.. Just tggu dlm kereta sementara kwn-kwn yg lain kt dlm. Tp masa otw nk pergi and balik dri temple nie pon pemandangan sngt lah cntik lalu dicela-celah gunung Ararat. Lps hbs private tour, kami pon check-in homestay kt city center Yerevan. Homestay nya luas dn cantik, lengkap dgn washing machine, kitchen, wifi, and living room, plus dkt dgn city center.

After breakfast, mereka semua pergi jalan-jalan di sekitar bandar Yerevan. Knpe mereka? Sbb i dgn yusuf tak ikut skali laaa haha, yusuf batuk dan selsema jd we just stayed inside. Around 12pm kami cehck-out dan terus ke stesen bas utk balik ke Tbilisi, Georgia again. Perjalan ambik masa lbh kurang 5 jam, dan sgt selesa sbb mcm naik private van, harga pon murah berbanding train. Sampai jee kt Tbilisi, kami pon ambik teksi dan terus ke homestay yg sama, and we slept one night there before went to Azerbaijan.
Overall Armenia is okay for me, its places especially Lake Sevan is very worth it to pay a visit if you love and admire the beautiful nature.. The people itself is very kind, taxi driver did not take an advantage on tourists, and most importantly we enjoyed ourselves there.. But there is something you need to know before enter Armenia, as you all know Armenia and Azerbaijan is in war decades ago up until know, so it is quite difficult to enter Azerbaijan when immigration officers see your passport had stamped from Armenia and so forth (they will ask you so many questions before stamp the passport, but no worries we Malaysian can still can go there). Make sure you read about those countries before you go ok!
That's all from Armenia if you to ask anything just drop the comment ok..
Thank You for reading. 😚
