This is an Awesome place, we would like to extend our gratefulness to the team of OceanAir Travels for making our stay in Armenia as great as possible. Thank you for crossing beyond the limits of your service. It’s more than what we have expected. You have just shown us that Armenians have welcoming hearts and are hospitable. Thank you for being a family to us. We all can’t wait to go back! Keep up the good work guys

This is museum of old manuscripts. It contains thousands and thousands old books, mostly in Armenian, but not only. Of course, only small part is open for the visitors, but it is also enough for incredible tour. The building also awesome. Must see place for any tourist.

Very interesting place in terms of history, Christianity. Very impressive antique books, paints, bibles. You can see very small bible, maybe smallest in the world and very big one.

Set on a street named after Mesrop Mashtots, the creator of the unique Armenian alphabet, Matenadaran holds precious artifacts of the equally vibrant Armenian culture. A vast repository of ancient Armenian artifacts, as well as a center for archeological research. All set against beautiful Yerevan. A must, for knowledge of this precious culture, a cradle of civilization.

Manuscripts. Old manuscripts.
If you visit Yerevan take a look here. Matenadaran is the home of hundreds or maybe thousands of manuscripts. If you also have an old book or something so important but old you can donate to Matenadaran which will be kept safe and with good care. Just call them to check details.response / report this review -

If you really want to know about people whos civilization is almost 6,000 yrs old you shoul vusit Arnenia. You should visit Matenadaran.
It's a shame that the history of Armenia doesn't have enough information about it's great history in the world.response / report this review -

It's an interesting museum full of ancient manuscripts. I also strongly recommend the museum to Iranian as it has lots of Persian manuscripts from works of Iranian scientist and poets and kings including Abualisina, Sadi, Hafez, Nader Shah.
