The museum houses a vast collection of artifacts, variety of bronze objects, such as weapons, jewelry, dating back to the Stone Age. Exhibits cover everything from Armenia's earliest civilizations to its modern-day independence.
The museum also features the world's oldest known leather shoe-The Areni-1 Shoe dated back to 3500 BCE. Another highlight of the museum is the collection of ancient artifacts from the Kingdom of Urartu.
The History Museum of Armenia is a must-visit for anyone interested in learning about the country's rich and complex history and it is situated at Republic Square.
The museum is well maintained and every artifact is well labeled in English. The ticket price is 2500 AMD (~$6) and English speaking guides are available. We opted for a guide because I was a bit curious about history and I wanted to grasp as much knowledge as I can. The guide was nice.
I have deducted one star as half of the museum was under renovation but it had given me a lot.

Had a small and quick visit here for wine tasting, the history of wines in Armenia and exploring the wine factory.
They offer wines for free to test along with bread blocks and cheese. You can buy wines from here.
In some areas, photography was prohibited.
