Yerevan in five emoji

What each emoji refers to

🗻

Ararat dominates the skyline and has been on the national coat of arms since long before the border put it inside Turkey.

⛪

Armenia adopted Christianity as a state religion in 301, before anywhere else.

🥃

Armenian brandy was reportedly Churchill's preference, and the distillery has traded on the story ever since.

🌋

The city is built from tuff, a volcanic stone that comes out pink, which is why it changes colour at sunset.

🍇

The Areni-1 cave holds the oldest known winery, with a press and vats around six thousand years old.
