TATUL KRPEYAN PARK


2015


Located in the First District of the Nor Nork Administrative District, at the intersection of Gay Avenue and Lvovyan Street.

In 2015, the park was named after Tatul Krpeyan (1965–1991), National Hero of the Republic of Armenia and participant in the First Artsakh War. It covers an area of 5.64 hectares and was officially opened on September 2, 2015.

A park had already been established at the beginning of the Nor Nork residential district, along Gay Avenue, during the Soviet period. In the 1990s, the graves of freedom fighters who lost their lives in the First Artsakh War were laid to rest there.

The park underwent major renovation in 2014–2015. The new design was based on a project developed by a group of students from the National University of Architecture and Construction of Armenia. As part of the renovation, basalt stairways were built, walkways were paved, curbs were renewed, retaining walls faced with travertine and basalt slabs were constructed, gazebos and benches were installed, a pool with 44 small fountains, drinking fountains, a tennis court, and children's playgrounds were built.

An amphitheater was also constructed to host various events. A new irrigation system and a new lighting network were installed.

Tatul Krpeyan Park provides all the necessary facilities for residents to enjoy comfortable recreation.
