Did you know... Armenia has some of the most unique religious buildings and frescoes in the world because of its long history as a Christian nation. Mount Ararat, where Noah landed his ark as told in the Bible, is an important symbol for Armenia. Although the mountain itself is in Turkey, the spiritual significance of Mount Ararat remains strong in Armenia, a country with deep Christian roots. The apricot is another important symbol, and is the national fruit of Armenia. Apricot wood is used to make the duduk, an ancient double-reed woodwind instrument that is another symbol of Armenia’s culture.
