Cafesjian Museum of Art

Rather than being an art center, it is basically a museum store with the door open. But this is the best point to climb up and overlook the city. Up to the top floor, it has not been finished. It is said that there is no money to build! If the weather is good, you can see the Atetra Mountain in the distance, which is beautiful.

Yerevan at night, a crowd, shoulder-to-shoulder, gift shops, gold and silver jade, traditional clothing, wood carving, unique, luxury stores are in scale, neon flashing, lively fragrance, enough to make the world's famous tourists eye-opening. The different street artists are taking turns, so it is not lively. The impressive medieval quiet church during the day and the night flower world in front of you are a bit awkward. Armenians have a very high talent for art, all kinds of street sculptures are flexible, different forms, people feel the artistic atmosphere. Standing in the flow of people, there will be some inexplicable touch in the bottom of the heart. After all, the journey of the Transcaucasus did not feel so exciting, but it was so unforgettable. Armenia is definitely worth savoring slowly, and it can't help but make people feel endless.

Yerevan, Armenia's capital, an ancient cultural capital with a long history, a city built on a hillside, with blue skies, colorful houses, and the whole city is full of art. The art center in the city center, also known as the large steps, is more than 500 meters long, is a five-step ladder building, a must-see place for tourism. Entering the square in front of the art center, all the way is attracted by many art sculptures, which is also called the art square. During this, it is indeed art. This is a large city street view of Yerevan, which is also a trendy place in Yerevan. Under the big steps, it is actually the exhibition hall of the Art Center. The escalator has been rising to the platform where the steps are high, and the escalator is displayed on both sides and in the air. These artworks are colorful and strange in shape, worth seeing. The escalator is not slow, and it is really a flower. The elevator reaches the top and overlooks the entire Yerevan from a high place. It is like opening the drawing shaft completely, suddenly open, Yerevan's colorful style and appearance, unobstructed. Armenia has made all its efforts to build this city. In the distance is the holy mountain where Noah's ark docks. If you are lucky, watch the sunset from the top and you can see the magnificent scene of "the ancient city has the peak mountains and the sunset reflects the snowy mountains". It will undoubtedly be the most charming and gorgeous performance in Yerevan. Sitting on the floor in the staircase square, this moment, being a real Armenian, see the vicissitudes of Yerevan.

We left the hostel and walked to an art museum on the hillside behind Liberty Square. This art museum is also located on a hillside high ground in the city, so it is also a great place to see the city, especially the night view. About 20 minutes walk to the art museum, from the outside view of the museum is a step-shaped sinking building, so it is commonly known as the Yerevan Steps. In front of the museum is a rectangular street garden with many abstract art sculptures, carefully viewing these works, whether it is characters or animals are quite moral. Then enter the museum from the left entrance, and take the internal escalator to each floor of the platform. The side of the escalator is placed with a variety of large-scale art works, most of which are mainly furniture, colorful and very artistic. The escalator to the museum on each floor is closed today and we can only watch the fountain flowing from the corridor platform on each floor and overlook the capital city from different heights. The escalator reaches the top floor and steps out of the platform. There is a diver sculpture here, so the high platform diving is also a profound meaning. From here, continue up the steps, only to find that there is still a long distance from the observation deck at the highest point, which is the unfinished part of the large platform building. The concrete that lays the foundation is topped with rusty steel bars, and the fence surrounds the area, and visitors must detour to reach the observation deck at the highest point. Unexpectedly, this huge art museum is also a rotten project. The museum was built by the former Soviet government in the early years, designed in 1971 and completed in 1980. Between 2002 and 2009, the famous businessman and philanthropist Gerard Leon, Cafesjian, of Armenian descent, sponsored extensive maintenance and renovation of the old buildings of the former Soviet era to change them to their current appearance. It also makes it a famous leisure and sightseeing spot in Yerevan. Unexpectedly, this is still a scenic spot for waste utilization. Walking around the highest viewing platform, the location is higher to see the city scenery is more open. Then we waited for the sunset on the upper viewing platform, and the city lights were on after sunset. Because there were no decorative lights, the night view of the whole city looked very general. Among the three countries in the Transcaucasus, the best night view of the city is Baku, Azerbaijan, after all, it is an oil-rich country. Again, Batumi and Tbilisi in Georgia, while Yerevan in Armenia can only finish last.

I didn’t understand what the big steps meant. I visited the field and found that it was very distinctive. In fact, it was based on a mountain to make a step. It is estimated that there are twenty or thirty floors. It is actually a museum inside. Although the height is not low, there are escalators. On both sides, you can enjoy the works of very modern artists, and when you go outside, you can overlook the whole city, and the whole steps can be used as stools. It is a good place for tourists and couples to relax. Many art works on both sides of the road and on the steps are very distinctive.

Yerevon must go to the iconic attractions, various strange sculptures and buildings shaped like the Sun Temple, at night, surrounded by friendly young people, the bistro below is beautiful, there are many people
