It is very difficult to describe Yerevan in a few sentences; the city has its own color, taste, sound, and atmosphere. The city is beautiful at any time of the year. In springs the city flourishes, the green trees surround this lovely city. In summers the city has other colors, the city life continues until midnight. In the streets you will see a lot of people, tourists just walking in the streets of lovely Yerevan.
The autumns have another beauty; all the green trees change their color wearing the beautiful shades of yellow, red and orange. The winters are cold, but the city is special in a unique way, the streets are decorated and designed for the New Year.
If you have a free day, and you don’t know what to do, you just go outside and walk in the streets of Yerevan. Though this city is not big enough for the capital, it still remains the most important city in Armenia. You can start your day by visiting the Republic Square, the most important place in the city. It is beautiful especially at nights when the lights turn on and the beautiful buildings stand in front of you. But don’t hurry up to leave this square; you need to see a miracle, the singing fountains.
After the square take your way to the Northern Avenue (right at the left part of the square), a new street with new buildings. There are a lot of cafés and restaurants, where you can sit and enjoy the look of the city. Walking up to Northern Avenue you will see a beautiful building of Opera Theatre.

Swan Lake is the favorite place for the youth, there will be a lot of people sitting under the trees or in nice benches.
After moving ahead you will appear at a crossroad, where you can choose your way because three famous avenues of Yerevan are in front of you; Sayat-Nova, Marshal Baghramyan, and Mesrop Mashtots Avenues. At the same time, you can choose Tumanyan St, which is very beautiful or Abovyan St, where are the luxurious shops of Yerevan.
