Armyansk (Ukrainian: Армянськ, Russian: Армянск, Crimean Tatar: Ermeni Bazar) is a city in northern Crimea, Ukraine. It is located on the Isthmus of Perekop.
Armyansk was founded in the beginning of the 18th century by Armenians and Greeks, who had come from the nearby city of Or Qapı (modern Perekop). The first name of the town was Ermeni Bazar (Crimean Tatar for the "Armenian market").
