The travel blogger named an underrated city that could become hugely popular in 2024
Yerevan, Armenia, a city known for its "rich history, beautiful architecture, delicious cuisine, and friendly people," has the potential to become "the next hottest tourist destination."
This statement was made by Em (@emsbudgettravel), a budget travel reviewer, on her TikTok. Yerevan is the capital of Armenia and is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities globally, with a current population of over a million people.
Yerevan has undergone significant transformation in recent years, with the emergence of new retail outlets, restaurants, shops, and street cafes that were uncommon during the Soviet regime, from which it gained independence in 1991.
After visiting Yerevan, a columnist for Em stated: "This is the most underrated place I've recently visited, and one of the most affordable. I predict that this city will become one of the most popular new travel destinations in 2024 and 2025, despite not being in Europe."
Yerevan was also recognized with the Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice Best of the Best award for 2024.
