Armenian Quarter Tours and Tickets
Armenian Quarter

If you’re planning to visit churches or cathedrals, dress modestly and cover your shoulders and knees, even in the sweltering summer months.
Be prepared for a lot of walking and wear appropriate footwear. The streets are cobblestoned and are difficult to navigate for anyone with mobility limitations.
For a deepdive into Armenian culture, visit Helen and Edward Mardigian Museum of Armenian Art and Culture. You’ll find over 200 artifacts on display, from illuminated manuscripts to handwoven rugs, as well as a sobering exhibit on the Armenian Genocide.
The Armenian Quarter is known for its hand-painted ceramics—a wonderful souvenir. There are several family-run workshops you can take part in. Armenian ceramicists also made all of the street signs within the Old City.
