AirVuz contributor doc brings us this rather eerie drone video of the Armenian capital city Yerevan under community-wide quarantine during the Covid-19 pandemic in the early Spring of 2020.  Like most of the former Soviet Union countries, Armenia did not see significant numberso of confirmed infections until comparatively late; the 100th Armenian case wasn't recorded until the third week of March.  Nevertheless, by March 16th, fairly strict social distancing measures were put in place across the country.

Armenia's Khor Vrap Monastery

Johny Kondakjian Photography used a drone to create this beautiful video of the Khor Virap Monastery on Armenia's Ararat Plain.  The structure was built in the 17th century, on the ruins of the site of a Pilgrimage of Gregory the Illuminator, who was credited with converting Armenia to Christianity in the 4th century AD.  The current church was preceded by a chapel built on this important religious site.  The monastery also provides a vantage point to view nearby Mt. Ararat, Turkey's tallest mountain.

Armenia's Oldest Pre-Christian Temple

Garni Temple, Armenia

johny kond...

Contributor Johny Kondakjian Photography used a DJI Mavic Pro drone to create this spectacular video of the Temple of Garni, one of Armenia's cultural treasures.  It is the country's only standing temple dating to the period before Armenia became the first proto-country to convert to Christianity, in 301 AD.  Believed to have dated to the first century, it collapsed in an earthquake in the 17th century, and was excavated and rebuilt in the 20th century.  It lies in the Kotayk Province in the middle of the country.

The talented content creator johny kondakjian photography brings us this excellent drone video from the Asian republic of Armenia as it celebrates its annual Vardavar festival.  With roots that pre-date the establishment of Christianity in Armenia during the Antiquity, Vardavar is celebrated by dousing one's neighbors with water.  Created with a combination of drone and ground camera footage, the video was filmed in the Armenian capital city of Yerevan.  Yerevan is considered one of the oldest continuously-inhabited cities in the world.

As the first nation to convert en masse to Christianity, the republic of Armenia is home to a number of famous monasteries.  One of them is Arakelots Monastery, which is located in the northern province of Tavush, in the chain of mountains known as the Lower Caucasus (which runs roughly parallel to the main Caucasus range).  Not to be confused with a now-destroyed monastery of the same name in Turkey, Armenia's Arakelots Monastery dates to the 13th century.  Check it out from above in this drone video by johny kondakjian photography.
