Yerevan Brutalist & Soviet Modernist Architecture Tour

This is not a monument tour, it is a walk through the raw architectural ambition of Soviet Armenia. We trace the concrete backbone of Yerevan from the cantilevered shell of the Northern Bus Station through the dense panelka housing of Kanaker-Zeytun, then step inside places most visitors never reach: the derelict Aragil Restaurant terraces overlooking the ravine, the untouched ropeway station frozen since 2004, and the decaying high-diving platforms of an abandoned Soviet swimming pool. The day closes at Tsitsernakaberd's basalt stele and the sweeping wings of the Karen Demirtchian complex, with a final look at the "Youth" metro's dramatic concrete cylinder before returning to your hotel.
