Armenia has been listed among the 50 most Instagrammable places of the world for 2021. Armenia is placed 39th between Warsaw (Poland) and Marrakech (Monaco).

The list was drawn up by Big 7 Travel after it analyzed Instagram hashtags for destinations around the world, asked the 600,000 people that follow its food and travel Instagram accounts for their opinions and considered the thoughts of its editorial team.

“Crumbling churches, incredible food and breathtaking scenery are just a few things sure to captivate in Armenia,” the website says.

“Tucked away in the Caucasus region, this culturally rich nation punches way above its weight when it comes to insta-worthy scenes. Get the perfect shot at the ever-charming Vernissage flea market loaded with trinkets and carpets galore and then explore the ancient grounds of any one of the country’s many churches and monasteries,” Big 7 Travel advises.

Tokyo tops the list followed by the stunning archipelago of the Philippines, and Paris in second nd third places, respectively.

Also making the top five are New York City (fourth) and ‘big-time photo-friendly’ Istanbul (fifth).

Dubai (UAE), Havana (Cuba), Sydney (Australia), London (England) and Chicago (Illinois) also make it to the top 10. 

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
