Vernissage is a weekend open market in Yerevan. It is situated close to the Republic Square. Here you can find artworks by famous and not so famous Armenian artists, as well as carpets, embroidery, posters, old collections of coins, jewelry, books, parts for electronics and even pets.
This market is a great site for grasping the traditional trasures of the local people.
The market's visitors are mainly tourists residents, with a handful of locals wandering through. If you don't look like a local you will probably attract a fair amount of attention from salespeople.
