🏛 Category: Is this really in Armenia?
Have you always wanted to see a futuristic Soviet-era building? 🛸 Then after landing, hold your horses (or rather, the GG taxi) and take 5 minutes to look at the mystical old terminal of Zvartnots Airport. It is thanks to its unusual architecture that this airport is easily recognizable throughout the world.
🏢 The terminal stopped functioning in 2011, but it still remains the calling card of Armenia. 🇦🇲
⚠️ Access to the territory is strictly prohibited, as the building is considered unsafe. However, for those whose middle name is “Danger”, this is not an obstacle - the Internet is full of shots taken inside. We do not recommend taking such risks. And for those who are upset by the lack of mysticism, we report: you are facing a meeting with the “Guardians” (or, as commoners call them, guards). You are unlikely to be executed, but it is better not to test this from personal experience. 👮♂️
📸 For aviation lovers, there is a secret location nearby for first-class photos. But let's not kid ourselves: as typical tourists in the 21st century, we never revisit our archives. Therefore, we advise you to simply watch the takeoff or landing live right above your head. You can even wave to the pilot - they say they get a little bored when they land. 👋✈️
P.S. There is a heated debate about whether to demolish this building or not, so if I were you, I would hurry up and start looking for tickets already! ⏳
I wonder if there are still people here who flew through the old terminal? The authors of this post are very lucky in this regard.
