Public Transport
Train: Yerevan has a single central train station (several train stations of suburbs have not been used since 1990) that is connected to the metro via the Sasuntsi Davit station. The train station is made in Soviet-style architecture with its long point on the building roof, representing the symbols of communism: red star, hammer and sickle. Due to the Turkish and Azerbaijani blockades of Armenia, there is only one international train that passes by once every two days, with neighboring Georgia being its destination. For example, for a sum of 9 000 to 18 000 AMD, it is possible to take the night train to the Georgian capital, Tbilisi. This train then continues to its destination of Batumi, on the shores of the Black sea.
Bus: There are city minivans available (marshrutni or marshrutka) which operate on 100 different routes and may be flagged down. From Yerevan its three hours to Dilijan, two hours to Vanadzor, four hour to Goris and six hours to Kapan. Buses and trolleybuses run in the city. Taxis are available in the city centre or can be ordered by telephone.
Metro: There is a small underground system in Yerevan
