Rain is often called 'blessing' (orhnutyun). If it rains on your wedding day, it's considered very lucky. The city's pink tuff buildings change color when it rains, becoming a deep, rich rose color. Farmers traditionally have many specific words for different types of rain, showing its importance for agriculture. Rain is a common theme in Armenian poetry, often symbolizing nostalgia or a cleansing of the soul.
