READERS RECOMMEND
I’ve been to “Dalan” souvenir shop downtown Yerevan a couple times to buy
presents for friends and visitors. It’s a great place for souvenirs! Tasteful and
genuinely Armenian handwork and crafts. They are on Abovian 12 (close to
Golden Tulip Hotel). Their website is www.dalan.am, but it won’t compare to
the fun of actually visiting the store!
