The sculptural group is located in the

2024, it was located in the square near the "Dvin" hotel. The group
composition "The Dance of the Mountaineers" depicts six people: four
men and two women. They are sculpted in one row, holding hands, shoulder to
shoulder, with their heads held high. Three of the dancers are sculpted in
flight. Their bold figures are as strong and steadfast as the Armenian
mountains, and the dance is triumphant. The sculptural group is made of copper,
the clothes are emphasized by sharp cuts. The sculpture is distinguished by its
