ARAGAST

Situated in the greenery of the circular boulevard, near the Opera House, it remains one of Yerevan's "must". Also called by its Russian name Paplovok ("sailboat"), for the architecture of the place, "anchored" on the edge of a vast basin, it was already very popular in the Soviet era, by intellectuals, artists, even dissidents and ... enlightened apparatchiks. The trendy and gilded youth meet there, to meet there in the evening especially around a drink to the sound of a jazz band. The terraces are crowded and you have to wait your turn, or even reserve.
