23 Years Later, Gyumri Struggles to Move On
The train from Yerevan to Gyumri took three hours. It was sturdy, but Soviet. Sturdy but Soviet.

Marshutka Fever: Public Transport, Caucasus Style
Deep within the Post-Soviet space, a public transportation system of mythical proportions (and one that virtually breaks any and all safety code violations known to the West) exists on pot-hole riddled, yet beautiful picturesque roads.
