The 10 Best Monuments & Statues in Yerevan, Armenia
Long fought over by warring empires, the city of Yerevan survived centuries of foreign occupation, finally becoming independent with the fall of the Soviet Union. This capital city, a center of Armenian culture, has celebrated its freedom with a flurry of construction and a growing population. Despite this push forward, history survives in Yerevan - The Institute of Ancient Manuscripts houses books dating back to the 9th century, and the ruins of the Erebuni Fortress, built in 782 BC, still stand.

The Memorial is located about 100 meters from the Genocide Museum. The Eternal Flame that glows within the centre of the 12 columns is poignant, beautifully understated within its surrounds, as such a Memorial to those victims of a genocide should be. Moving, thought-provoking and an important reminder of the past - unfortunately, not being heeded in today's worldwide society.
