Visit the monumental statue of Mother Armenia standing majestically in Victory Park, casting a watchful eye over the capital city of Yerevan. Rising to an impressive height of 51 meters, including its pedestal, the monument houses a military museum within its base. From this point, you'll venture towards the Cascade - an architectural masterpiece that connects the city centre with the elevated regions of other administrative districts. This multi-tiered staircase structure, adorned with terraces, fountains and sculptures, is not only a symbol of the city but also a popular tourist spot and significant public space.
In proximity lies another iconic landmark fondly referred to by locals as 'Opera'. It is composed of two concert halls: the Philharmonic Concert Hall and the National Theatre of Opera and Ballet. Further enhancing the cityscape is Northern Avenue, a pedestrian boulevard characterised by luxurious residential buildings, high-end shops, commercial offices, coffee shops and hotels. This avenue seamlessly links the Opera House with Republic Square.
Republic Square serves as the beating heart of Yerevan both architecturally and culturally. As the central town square, it hosts the Government, National Gallery and History Museum, along with singing fountains among other attractions. The blend of these landmarks creates a rich tapestry that embodies the essence of Yerevan.
