What is notable about Yerevan Zvartnots Airport?
EVN is named after the nearby Zvartnots Cathedral ruins, a 7th-century UNESCO World Heritage Site visible from the airport. On clear days, passengers arriving at EVN are greeted by a dramatic view of Mount Ararat (5,137 m), Armenia's national symbol located just across the Turkish border.
