Great selection of traditional Armenian stuffed dried fruits. Prices are reasonable for the quality and not high anyway. Sun dried peaches stuffed with sweet walnuts are great, as well as pomegranate dried juice with nuts. Just try it and you will understand what I am talking about.

I do not like markets, to be honest. But this one was ok for me. Clean, open place with good choice of local products.

Gum is where you can find all Armenian goodies at the most reasonable price. I love going to Gum with my kids and meet the locals of Armenia and enjoy their warmth and hospitality

It seemed to me that this is one of the few places in Yerevan where you can buy a variety of dried fruits, nuts and other sweets based on them.
The market is small. Everyone gives it a try. Prices are not readily lowered, they are inferior only in the case of large purchases.
We were in early January, closer to 17:00 - there are few people, the sellers are not very intrusive. I didn't feel much color. Just like any other market.

The local Soviet-built bazaar. Outside you can buy live fish, sterlet, crayfish and poultry. Inside there is meat, basturma, very tasty national cheeses, dried fruits, churchkhela, various wines and stronger drinks, fruits, coffee, etc. Everything is very tasty. There is a "but", they give all the food to taste with DIRTY hands. You can bargain, but you can't lose much. The service is not intrusive, but sometimes they get drunk if they have tried a lot, but bought little. Try dried persimmons and tomatoes, I recommend it!

A huge selection of dried fruits, dried tomatoes and tangerines stuffed with nuts impressed. A sea of different beans, coffee beans, and everything else. And my main purchase is dried prunes, just prunes. In Russia, it is sold in some kind of oil that does not wash off.
One of the disadvantages is that you can easily become the culprit of a scandal between sellers if you try to buy from one and buy from a neighbor, which happened to us, the scream was terrible!

The old Soviet-style market, everything looks very unsanitary, I walked past a row of cheeses - "it smells to put it mildly", the market itself is saturated with the smell of spices in a very strong concentration, when I came out of there, I probably felt this smell for another half hour.Especially strongly with the offer to buy- try do not stick, but there is such a thing. I bought a very tasty thing there- something like an improved version of churchkhela- that is, also a nut in syrup, but either dried apricots or prunes are laid between the pieces of the nut and all this in a "portioned" version, that is, separate balls, so to speak.It is very tasty in this combination, sold by weight, eaten like seeds ...)) I bought figs that are in a green shell, and red inside. mmm...That's how much I dislike purple figs, I love this green one so much. You can't really buy it in Moscow, and it's expensive. And these are the packages (in the photo) that pita bread is sold.))

There is a large market, you can buy beautifully packaged sweets, try homemade cognac. There are very few buyers. Knowing the Armenian words "hello" and "thank you" does not always help to bargain.))

GUM Market in Yerevan is a place where you can find everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to unique souvenirs and local products. I was amazed by the variety of products and the atmosphere of the authentic Armenian market. There is a unique atmosphere of trade and exchange of cultural values, which makes visiting GUM an unforgettable experience. I recommend it to anyone who wants to plunge into the authentic atmosphere of the Armenian market and buy high-quality products and souvenirs.

It's a good market. Fruits are fresh and dried. We took grapes and pomegranates to the table. Coffee, spices-less than store-bought. I really liked the homemade wine, I haven't tried any other alcohol. Even if you don't buy, you need to visit anyway-this is also a part of Yerevan.

I really wanted to visit this market. Unfortunately, I was there in January, apparently out of season, prices are higher than in Moscow. I didn't see that it was possible to buy only there. I wanted to try the local cheese, but I was afraid, everything was on the counter and in an open form. I didn't take any chances. In the end, I only bought a set of nuts in a plate as a gift, just because it said Armenia. I'm not discouraging anyone from visiting this market, maybe in the summer everything is much better and cheaper there.

Delight!!!
Huge market of natural local products! Fruits, Dried fruits, meat, milk - clean, ecological products! The prices are very low. Of course, all this can be found in Moscow, but the prices will be x10.
There is a huge selection, you can bargain.
Just keep in mind since there are a lot of private traders here, not everyone has payment terminals. It's better to go with cash.

There are interesting local products. Alcohol on tap. You can try everything. But Armenian specialists are cheaper in Moscow. On Foodcity, for example. Although everything is delicious.

Frankly disappointed.
You can buy sujuk in a supermarket (in vacuum packaging, with an understandable production date) along with meat sujuk and Italian cheese, and pay with a mir card)))
I bought with my hands: dried fruits - I threw some of them away (I found mold at home upon careful inspection), walnut jam - it's generally an outrage (nuts were used in jam already mature - teeth can be broken - and hence the question: do the locals not see that the nut is not even suitable for jam in size?.. since the jam is black, it is unclear by appearance, I relied on the decency of the seller / producer. But in vain, apparently it is designed for tourists who will not return anyway. Unpleasant, but not surprised).
Therefore, if you have ever been to vegetable markets in your life, there is nothing to do here (despite the fact that the assortment on all the trays is the same).
If I'm in Yerevan again, I definitely won't go there))
I visited only because of the impressions of English-speaking bloggers on YouTube, whose reviews I looked at before the trip (but they didn't live in a scoop)))

The market is good, there are a lot of goodies, you can try everything. But it is expensive, designed mainly for tourists.
There is a wonderful eatery, they cook Gingalo Khats there. There is nothing so delicious in the area.

So )
I happened to visit the market 😂
I want to pay tribute to the freshness of the products, flavors and treats of the sellers !
They will drink a glass with you so that you can evaluate the product and treat you to a peach and cut a mask 😍
BUT if you tell me one churchkhela and one container of peaches , then they won 't listen to you 🤪😂 they 'll just put everything in a bag and say that I want you to take it all , the answer is no , the simple package is already tied - they tell you how much you charge and you 're free 😂 well , generally on the first island you will buy everything you wanted and didn 't want and you will be free from searching for something else 💕

It is almost the only place in Yerevan where you can buy churchkhela, pastilles, dried fruits. Everything looks beautiful, give it a try before buying. Almost everything is by weight.
But the prices are high. You can bargain quite a bit. And when we went, there were few people, it was uncomfortable.
There is an vegetable and fruit market outside GUM, the prices are average, and there are more people.

Great market, lots of goodies. Before buying, I tried basturma, fruit sweets, wine. Everything is very decent. Nice sellers. They took a lot of things with them to St. Petersburg. But it turned out to be a huge minus - in the beautiful dried (dried) tomatoes, which I bought decently in this market, there were fat white worms. Unfortunately, I saw it a couple of weeks later in St. Petersburg, I guess there were some maggots initially. Be careful, customers.

Nice city market
But it 's almost the same for everyone , but they say they cook themselves ( I can 't believe it )
Do not take it in shops where the counter is higher than you see
It is not clear how much they will hang there and what exactly they are putting in , although you ask

There is a special vibe here that is very reminiscent of Sochi and Adler. Usually, the abbreviation GUM is associated with something large-scale and elite, but this object is, in fact, an ordinary market.

Atmospheric, but not budget-friendly. It is necessary to visit, spend money and treat friends and acquaintances with basturma and sweets. Well, drink pomegranate juice.. Dried fruits are overpriced, but the choice is excellent.

Authentic. Delicious.
They invite you, give you a try and get offended if you don't buy.
As in all oriental bazaars.
