City of Yerevan, Asia Destination Feels Europe
Yerevan is the most ancient city in the world, located along the Hrazden River. The city is the capital of Armenia, an Asian country whose territory is surrounded and directly borders Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Iran. The city celebrates its anniversary every October 13, now 2,796 years old and is a historic city with many interesting attractions.
The development of the modern city of Yerevan can not be separated the role of architect Alexander Tamanyan (1878-1936) who became "the father of modern Yereven City". With his cold hands, Yerevan transformed into a city with unique creations, side by side with the harmony of classical ancient buildings.
The hallmark of Tamanyan is a building that uses abundant volcanic stone in Armenia, which is light, very hard and beautiful. He is also inspired by the architectural forms of Paris and Vienna, so it is not surprising that walking in the city of Yerevan will remind the city in Europe, although geographically located in Asia.
