YEREVAN

   In 1926-1932 Yerevan was restored to life again, maintaining the precious values of the past centuries. An unprecedented civil construction process started in the city administered by architect developed the master plans for the towns and cities of the republic and first of all, the capital city Yerevan. According to the plan, the capital was designed to unfold in the central part of the Yerevan valley, from Kanaker heights and Nork towards the threshold of the Ararat Valley, right opposite the Mount Ararat.

  Tamanyan breathed a new life and beauty into the city. His entire work is a tribute to architecture, demonstrating that architecture is not merely a specialty but also ART.
