Unusual sights of Yerevan
The Grand Cascade: this architectural composition with artistically decorated staircases, fountains, sculptures and flower beds is interesting because those who wish will be able to go upstairs (there are beautiful Yerevan views from there), where they can get on the escalator (since it is located under the Cascade, everyone will have the opportunity admire the installations of art located inside the Cascade, in the exhibition galleries) or on the stairs with more than 650 steps.
“The Man of Letters”: it is a sculpture of a man who looks into the distance, pressing his knees to his chest (the figure is created from the letters of the Latin alphabet - they are welded to each other). The sculpture, symbolizing the craving of people for knowledge and love for the printed word, attracts a considerable number of fans of unique photographs.
