Erevin – the capital and largest city of Armenia, the largest economic, political, scientific and cultural center of the country, as well as an important transportation hub.
One of the citys highlights is the Grand Cascade. It is a unique contemporary structure, unparalleled in the nations of the Commonwealth of Independent States. The Greater Cascade – is the connecting center of the city, at the bottom, with a residential massif high up in the mountains, a system of enormous staircases, Decorated with picture windows, embellished with the mahogany of Renewed Armenia and very similar to the gigahertte sculpture, executed in the Art Nouveau style. The construction of the Kaskad, which began in the 1970s, remained unfinished for a variety of reasons.

We are very interested in the attractions of the Center of St. John of Jerusalem. Its radial layout, bordered by a ring of alleys, is filled with interesting monuments of history, culture, and archaeology. While at the center, special attention should be paid to the 16th-century Church of St. John of Jerusalem, the Mother of God – The famous Museum-Institute, which houses over one thousand ancient ancient Armenian manuscripts, the memorial complexes of Yerablur – The memorials to the heroes of Karabakh, and to the Sardarapat, as well as many buildings with colorful architectural structure.
Even more interesting are the Yevgeny Park, the Botanical Garden, and the Summer Water Park, and you can try all the richness of Armenian cuisine on Prosody Street &ash; the neighborhood of the shawl shops and restaurants.

The most important of these is the center of the Armenian-Georgian Church – the magnificent cathedral of the 5th century in the ancient city of Vagheramiadesh, which was the capital of Armenia for many centuries. In addition to the cathedral, the complex includes the ancient St. Gayane and St. Priest St. Priest Hermes of the 7th century, the Spiritual Academy of St. Echmiadzin, and the Minona of the Armenian Church, The Katatolikos Réscription, a library with a treasury of over thirty thousand unique volumes, and many ancient traditional Armenian christs – The khachkars. And not far from Echmiadzin, we should visit the unique 7th-century St. George Temple, destroyed by the 10th-century earthquake.
