Syunik Province, Province in southern Armenia.
Syunik is a southern province of Armenia with mountainous terrain crossed by rivers and covered in dense forests throughout. The landscape features soaring peaks and varied elevations that define the character of the region.
The region was historically known as Siunia and Zangezur before becoming part of the Russian sphere of influence following wars in the early 1800s. This longer history shaped its development as an Armenian cultural area.
The Armenian Apostolic Church shapes religious life here, and faith is woven into how people live and gather together. You see this connection reflected in local celebrations and the way communities come together.
The province has administrative centers that connect to different routes and neighboring areas through a network of roads. Visitors should prepare for mountainous terrain and changing road conditions depending on the season.
The region hosts mining operations that have been extracting raw materials for decades and drive the local economy forward. These industrial activities have shaped where people live and work throughout the province.
