Yeraskh (Armenian: Երասխ, also Romanized as Eras'ch; formerly, Arazdayan) is a town in the Ararat Province of Armenia. Yeraskh is the last town in Armenia at the border with Nakhichevan on what used to be the main road and rail connections between Nakhichevan and Azerbaijan proper. Currently, there is a no-man's land at the frontier guarded by a small military post, and the border is closed.
