Yerevan: Yerevan the capital of Armenia is a very beautiful and small neat town. Archaeological evidence indicates that a military fortress called Erebuni stood on Yerevan's site as far back as the 8th century BC. In 782 B.C the Urartian king Argishti first founded Erebuni the military and administrative center on the place of the present-day Yerevan. . The city of Yerevan is 210 square kilometers (82 square miles) in size. There are a lot of attractions in Yerevan that are worth seeing when visiting Armenia.

Sites to Visit:

The Mathenadaran – depositary of ancient manuscripts. Its collections comprise ancient Armenian books and miniature paintings that have gained worldwide fame. Among its unique treasures are the works of ancient classical authors and rare manuscripts that have come to our days only in the Armenian translation.

The Memorial Park and Genocide Museum of Armenians - The memorial complex to the victims of the Armenian genocide in 1915 towers over Tsitsernakaberd hill. At the center of the monument, there is the Memorial Sanctuary with an eternal flame and twelve, tall basalt slabs leaning over the flame. As a part of the Monument, the arrow-shaped 44 meters high granite stele symbolizes the spiritual rebirth and bold spirit of the Armenian people. The Genocide Museum is a special constituent part of the complex.

The Mother Armenia Statue in the Victory Park

There are numerous parks throughout the city that are great for kicking back, taking your shoes off, and enjoying a picnic. Lovers Park is by far the most popular and also happens to be the oldest park in the city.

Lovers Park boasts a traditional Japanese landscape, which was transformed after recently being renovated. It is a great place for a romantic picnic amongst lovers, with its ponds, waterfalls, and quiet spaces.

English park is another excellent place for a picnic and is often the backdrop for wedding photographs. Tumanyan Park and Buenos Aires Park are also great picnic parks.

On a hot summer day head to Yerevan Water World for some cooling off. The three-hectare water park is home to 12 waterslides, 7 outdoor pools, 3 indoor pools, and 2 children's areas.

Yerevan Water World is great for the whole family, though anyone at any age can enjoy themselves at the fantastic water park. The outdoor open-air park features 2 large swimming pools, 3 pools with water slides, a VIP pool, and a children’s pool, as well as food stands and a restaurant.
