The view of the city is cool! On a clear day, Ararat is perfectly visible. But it's not very comfortable coming up here. Dangerous iron stairs. There is dirt and debris around, graffiti

I have not photographed the view from the observation deck, but there is a view from the cascade, and the cascade is located below the observation deck. The view is just as beautiful, just distant. Beautiful view of the mountain and nearby binoculars, you can see the closest part of the mountain. It's worth climbing it.

Excellent fitness after the plentiful and delicious food of Yerevan. For the lazy or unhealthy, there are escalators on the left side. The upper part of the stairs to the landing has not yet been completed, but there is a ladder that allows you to go up. The view is gorgeous. Ararat hid the peaks from us in the clouds, but the view is still beautiful. The city is perfectly visible.

There is a beautiful view of the city from above, if it is difficult for someone to climb on foot, there is an escalator, we found out in the middle of the way. The impression is spoiled by protruding pile fittings from some unfinished building in front of the observation deck and a terrible pigsty under the platform, where urine stinks and a pile of garbage. The infrastructure is lame, there are no stalls with ice cream or cold drinks, especially there is no toilet. So it's better to stock up on this in advance.

The view is very beautiful, especially on Ararat, but it is not very often seen because of clouds or haze, a great view in winter at 7-8 in the morning. But the cascade to the observation deck was not completed ... for more than 30 years, they did not find the money to complete it, of course, it is strange. If you go up, you can take the steps or the escalator, where there is an escalator is very beautiful inside. But you'll have to climb the stairs to get to the exam room. By the way, there is a lot of garbage in the excavation (where there should have been a continuation of the cascade), even taking into account all sorts of companies that are occasionally cleaned there.

The cascade is a stairway to heaven in the center of Yerevan. The architecture of the cascade attracts attention as it is, but add modern sculpture, fountains and stunning views of the great and small Ararat Mountains and you will get a center of attraction for both tourists and locals. In my opinion, this is a must-visit point, otherwise why would you even get to Yerevan?

I was lucky enough to be there and photograph the launching of balloons on Yerevan City Day. I hope they will complete the construction and there will be a completed building and cultural facility.

I recommend all tourists to climb to the very top of the Cascade, from the height of the observation deck you will see a unique view of Yerevan, and no matter what time of day or what season, you will get untold pleasure. There are several more sites on the way, where you can sit, relax, and admire art objects. For people who are not physically prepared, it is not worth going up into the heat. If it's hard for you to walk until 20.00, you can take the elevator, you can ask, they will tell you inside. The best time is, of course, the evening, just as you start to climb behind the light, and at the last landing it will be dark and then you will gradually watch Yerevan sink into the night. You will see Ararat in all its glory. And of course the night lights of Yerevan. You can describe a lot, but it's better to see it once.

The Cascade is one of the main attractions of Yerevan. There is a sculpture by architect Tamanyan at its base. The construction has not been completed yet for various reasons (there is no penultimate tier), everything else has its own flavor. The cascade consists of many steps going up the mountain, flowerbeds with greenery and flowers create a feeling of the structure fitting into the mountain landscape. At the foot and on each floor there are avant-garde sculptural compositions, fountains in the form of bottles with pouring wine, small pools with water. In the heat, it is better to ride part of the cascade on an escalator (on the left side of the structure), where avant-garde objects are also presented. It is better to approach the highest point (it is also completed) from above from the side of the road. It seems that there is also a small passage from the unfinished level on the left side, but we did not dare to go there. It will take a lot of strength to climb, but it's worth it) The overview of Yerevan is good, there is something to see. It is interesting for both adults and children. It is better to take water with you. There are cafes downstairs, there are benches (but there are not enough for everyone). There is a public transport stop nearby, a toilet further through the park (only coins of a certain denomination can be paid for), a double-decker tour bus (runs according to schedule). It will be difficult to park your car, there is a lot of traffic and there is not much space. If you stand facing the Cascade, then there is a grocery store on the left corner.

The ideal place to start exploring the city, the whole of Yerevan, as in the palm of your hand you can see the opera house, museum and other attractions, and of course Ararat is visible. And Victory Park is also very close by

From the point of view of the view, the place is cool. It's not clear why the authorities won't do a proper renovation here.???? This is one of the central tourist spots in the city! No 5 is it really impossible to put it in order, because the appearance of the exam room is just scary

Personally, I saw the Zoroastrian ziggurat in this, but little did Ararat have an effect. A very beautiful, harmonious building. And back and forth to go up and down, a good physical workout. The view from there is amazing when Ararat is visible

What a panorama of the city there is a significant plus, there is an escalator, if an elderly person is traveling with you, he will drive calmly, and will not climb thousands of steps. And enjoy the beauty of the view

I expected more, because the heat, the height, the higher you go up the cascade, the less greenery, and at the very top Stella has a complete mess: piles of garbage and a smell like in a public toilet. But the view from above of Yerevan and Ararat is magnificent.

I wonder if spring or autumn is probably even better. But when you climb to the very top and see the last, unfinished platform (and judging by the condition of 20 years) it becomes upsetting... This is your tourist symbol (and more) Well, try your best! And finish it! That's a huge ++++++
