Swan Lake, Yerevan

3.1
#5 of 14 in Parks in Yerevan
Water Body Landmark
Admire Swan Lake, a knee-deep man-made pool of water in Freedom Square. The spot is famous for the region's summer festival and the open-air cinema. In wintertime the water is frozen and serves as an ice rink. The pool is named after a couple of white and black swans which made it their home. There is a high-end pedestrian shopping area and a good selection of cafes around it. A visit to Swan Lake represents just the start of the adventure when you use our Yerevan itinerary maker to plot your vacation.

  • bars and restaurants are plenty around Swan Lake. It's a great spot to be outdoor and people watch. the restaurants and bars were always full everynight that we passed by.  more »
  • Cozy Park with a pond. Swans in the pond. A favourite place for strolling local residents and tourists. Course the park especially in the evenings.

  • If you want to relax, go here. In the heart of the city on a bench sit in the shade of a willow. Watch for white and Black Swans.

Where to stay in Yerevan

When it comes to accommodations in Yerevan, you'll find a number and a range befitting its status as the capital and most populous city in the country. Look in the Kentron (center) district, where by far the greatest number and best quality hotels can be found. Hotels in old Soviet blocks, grand former administrative buildings, or newly built high-rises offer standard to luxury rooms, along with a set of smaller hostels. With prices notoriously high for the region (and many visitors using Yerevan as a base from which to see the country), consider renting an apartment if staying for a longer period.
