Overview

Yerevan, the capital of the Republic of Armenia, is one of the oldest capitals in the world, which is even 29 years older than the famous Rome. Yerevan was built in BC 782 by the Armenian king Argisht I, about whom there is a preserved stone cuneiform record. Some parts of the fortress city built by King Argishti are presented in Erebuni Historical Archaeological Reserve Museum. However, there are more ancient settlements in the current area of the city, where people lived tens of thousands of years ago.

The city is located in the Ararat Valley, on both banks of the Hrazdan River, directly in front of the Biblical Mount Ararat. According to one of the traditions, the name of the city came from the word “yerevats” (it appeared). When the forefather Noah saw the land from the top of Mount Ararat after the flood and exclaimed: “yerevats!”(it appeared).

Among the prominent structures of the city are St. Katoghike, St. Sargis, St. Hovhannes of Kond churches, Persian mosque, “Ararat” brandy factory, “Noy” brandy and wine factory built on the territory of Yerevan fortress, Victory and Kievyan bridges, Republic and Freedom squares, National Academic Theater of Opera and Ballet, “Moscow” cinema, Sports Concert Complex named after Karen Demirchyan, St. Mesrop Mashtots library buildings, the parliamentary and presidential palaces, the Cascade, the Railway station, Hagtanak (Victory) park with its Mother Armenia statue, “Hrazdan” and “Vazgen Sargsyan” stadiums and many other buildings and structures of various significance. The city is rich with many museums, parks and fountains, modern cinemas, shopping malls and bars, cafes and other places for interesting and pleasant entertainment.
