Yerevan is the 12th capital of Armenia recorded since the beginning of history. The city was chosen to be the capital of the First Republic of Armenia in 1918 as a central location for the territory of the new Republic and given the ancient history of the city. However, Yerevan was not a major city at the time and a lot of buildings were therefore built during Soviet time with very unique architectural features.

This tour will be an opportunity to look at Yerevan architecture through the lenses of Soviet mindset and style.

This walking tour will be focused on the unique Soviet Armenian architectural buildings of Yerevan
