Armenia - Yerevan

Yerevan, the capital of Armenia is a beautiful city.
Where the old, soviet and new styles are nicely mixed.

Like the old chapel and restored church, which was destroyed by Bolshevik movement. 

All over the city there are water fountains, in Armenian is called - Pulpulak
The quality of water is naturally on top, with perfect level of calcium, which in some countries is a big problem.

Some very nice old buildings can be found in center

Some are covered with metallic piercings

The National Gallery of Armenia, has a rich collection of paintings, with masterpieces like the Salome and many others

Artists draw their impressions


On some buildings can be seen decors from Soviet Armenia

The city center is stylized with classic street lamps

The street indicators are stylized as well

As well as trash cans

The roots of trees covered with nice drain covers

The subway stations are individually stylized

Some super old monuments can be seen, like this ancient Dragon Stone

Along with modern statues from Botero, like in Vaduz the capital of Liechtenstein
