<\/span><\/h6>
1. Yerevan<\/span>\ud83d\udccd<\/span><\/h6>\n
The International Hot Air Balloon Festival<\/b><\/u><\/div>

<\/div>
On the Republic Square, early in the morning on October 14th, hot air balloonists from all over the world gathered \ud83d\uddfa. I had been looking forward to this day for weeks. At half past seven, it was finally time. The Brazilian hot air balloonist was already waiting for our arrival. In total, there were five of us, standing shoulder to shoulder. Shortly after, not only did the balloon rise, but so did our excitement \ud83d\ude01. It felt somewhat insecure. \"So helpless, so unpredictable.\" Max even said he found it worse than paragliding \ud83d\ude2f. But for me, it was the opposite. In the first half-hour, we ascended up to 2000 meters and enjoyed the incredible panoramic view \ud83e\udd70. Then I felt nauseous for five minutes, and luckily I felt better afterwards \ud83e\udd2e \ud83e\udd23. I don't usually have a fear of heights, but even for me, that was pretty high \ud83d\ude02! (By the way, the ride lasted an hour).<\/span><\/div>

<\/div>
An experience that will probably stay in my memory forever. \u2728<\/b><\/div>

Cascade Complex \ud83d\ude0e<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>
One of the most beautiful viewpoints over the city of Yerevan is probably the 118-meter-high staircase complex, the Cascade. Don't worry: There are enough escalators available that slowly take you up through the interior of the Cascade \ud83d\ude01. Meanwhile, you can admire the artful exhibits and make a stop on the outdoor terrace at each level. \u263a\ufe0f<\/div>

A paradise for all souvenir buyers and shopping enthusiasts. \u2764\ufe0f<\/div>
Here you'll find a good mix of knick-knacks and high-quality craftsmanship! At some stands, you can even see how the chessboards are made. Did you know that chess is a separate subject in Armenian schools? \u265f\ufe0f<\/div>

Additionally, you'll have a view of the Marriott Hotel, the Post Office, the Government Building with Clock Tower, and former buildings of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. \ud83e\udd70<\/div>

Yerevan Zipline Airlines \ud83d\ude4c<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>
A zipline that runs directly under the bridge! \ud83d\ude31<\/i><\/div>
The first route starts at a height of 123 meters and is 870 meters long. The second one is slightly shorter, only 650 meters in length. You don't really need to worry about much since the track has an automatic stop system installed. That's why it was pretty easy. The only important thing is to ensure that the minimum weight is met, so you don't get stuck halfway \ud83e\udd23.<\/div>
 Max and I rode together, which was pretty cool! \ud83d\udca8<\/div>

Die \ud83d\udd1d Highlights aus Armenien<\/h6>

<\/h6>
1. Yerevan\ud83d\udccd<\/h6> Das internationale Hei\u00dfluftballonfestival<\/b><\/u>
Am Platz der Republik versammelten sich fr\u00fch morgens am 14. Oktober Hei\u00dfluftballonfahrer aus der ganzen Welt \ud83d\uddfa. Schon Wochen vorher fieberte ich diesen Tag entgegen. Um halb 8 war es schlie\u00dflich so weit. Der brasilianische Hei\u00dfluftballonfahrer wartete bereits auf unsere Ankunft. Insgesamt waren wir f\u00fcnf Personen und standen eng an eng. Kurz danach stieg nicht nur der Ballon an, sondern auch unsere Aufregung \ud83d\ude01. Es f\u00fchlte sich schon etwas unsicher an. '' So hilflos, so unberechenbar ''. Max meinte sogar, dass er es schlimmer fand, als das Paragliding \ud83d\ude2f . F\u00fcr mich war es aber umgekehrt. In der ersten halben Stunde stiegen wir hoch hinauf, bis zu 2000 Metern und genossen die unglaubliche Panoramaaussicht \ud83e\udd70 . Dann wurde mir f\u00fcr 5 Minuten Kotze \u00fcbel und danach ging es mir dann zum Gl\u00fcck wieder gut \ud83e\udd2e \ud83e\udd23. Ich habe eigentlich \u00fcberhaupt keine H\u00f6henangst, aber das war selbst f\u00fcr mich schon ziemlich hoch \ud83d\ude02 ! ( Die Fahrt dauerte \u00fcbrigens eine Stunde ) .
Ein Erlebnis, welches wohl f\u00fcr immer in meiner Erinnerung bleiben wird. \u2728<\/b>

\n[gallery ids=\"2687,2685,2686\"]\n
Cascade Komplex \ud83d\ude0e<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>Eines der sch\u00f6nsten Aussichtspunkte \u00fcber die Stadt von Jerewan bietet wohl der 118 Meter hohe Treppenkomplex, die Kaskaden. Keine Angst : Es stehen gen\u00fcgend Rolltreppen zur Verf\u00fcgung, die dich durch das Innere der Kaskaden langsam nach oben f\u00fchren \ud83d\ude01 . W\u00e4hrenddessen kannst du die kunstvollen Ausstellungsst\u00fccke bewundern & bei jeder Etage einen Zwischenstopp im Au\u00dfenbereich einlegen.\u263a\ufe0f

\n[gallery ids=\"2692,2693,2691\"]\n
Mother Armenia Complex \ud83d\ude42<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>Im Siegespark befindet sich das Monument ''Mother Armenia'' , welches aus einem Grabmal, Milit\u00e4rmuseum und einer gro\u00dfen Statue besteht. \ud83e\udd17 Von dort aus bekommst du auch nochmal eine beeindruckende Aussicht \u00fcber die Stadt! \ud83d\ude07

\n[gallery ids=\"2695,2696,2694\"]\n
Modern Art Museum \ud83c\udfa8<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>In der Mashtots Avenue befindet sich das moderne Kunstmuseum, in dem du vielerlei Gem\u00e4lde, sowie einige Statuen finden kannst.  Die Kunstwerke sind wirklich sehr beeindruckend und du kannst deiner Fantasie freien Lauf lassen. \ud83c\udfad

\n[gallery ids=\"2698,2697,2699\"]\n
Vernissage \ud83d\udecd\ufe0f<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>Ein Paradies f\u00fcr alle Souvenir K\u00e4ufer & Shopping Liebhaber. \u2764\ufe0fHier findest du einen guten Mix aus Krimskrams und hochwertiger Handarbeit! An manchen St\u00e4nden siehst du sogar, wie die Schachbretter hergestellt werden. Wusstest du, dass Schach ein eigenes Schulfach in Armenien ist? \u265f\ufe0f

\n[gallery ids=\"2702,2700,2703\"]\n
Dancing Fontains \ud83d\udca6<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>Am Abend findest du am Platz der Republik leuchtende Wasserfont\u00e4nen, die mit abwechslungsreicher Musik und unterschiedlichen Farben ihr Wasserspiel pr\u00e4sentieren \ud83d\ude2f. Zus\u00e4tzlich hast du einen Blick auf das Hotel Marriott, die Post, das Government Building mit Clock Tower & ehemalige Geb\u00e4ude des Au\u00dfenministerium. \ud83e\udd70

\n[gallery ids=\"2706,2705,2707\"]\n
Freedom Square \ud83d\udcf8<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>An diesem Stadtplatz befindet sich das Opern- und Ballett-Theater. Es ist das wichtigste und gr\u00f6\u00dfte Musiktheater! \ud83c\udfb6Auch ein cooler Spot, um ein paar Runden mit dem Elektroauto herumzud\u00fcsen \ud83e\udd19.

\n[gallery ids=\"2711,2709,2710\"]\n
Yerevan Zipline Airlines \ud83d\ude4c<\/b><\/u>
<\/h6>Eine Zipline, die direkt unter der Br\u00fccke entlang f\u00fchrt! \ud83d\ude31<\/i>Die erste Strecke beginnt in einer H\u00f6he von 123 Metern und ist 870 Meter lang. Die zweite ist ein kleines bisschen k\u00fcrzer mit nur 650 Metern L\u00e4nge. Hier brauchst du eigentlich nichts gro\u00df beachten, da in der Bahn ein automatisches Stopp-system eingebaut ist. Aus diesem Grund war es ziemlich easy. Wichtig ist es nur, dass das Mindestgewicht eingehalten wird, damit man nicht auf halber Strecke stehen bleibt \ud83e\udd23. Max & ich sind zu zweit gefahren, was ziemlich cool war! \ud83d\udca8
\n[gallery ids=\"2715,2717,2716\"]\n
2. Garni\ud83d\udccd
<\/h6> The Symphonie of Stones, Garni Gorge<\/i>Vergiss nicht, einen kleinen Abstecher au\u00dferhalb von Yerevan zu machen. Das majest\u00e4tische Naturdenkmal liegt nur ungef\u00e4hr 23km entfernt von der Hauptstadt und ist wirklich bewundernswert! \u2728
