"Prague Park" is a small park located in Komitas street. If you have stopped nearby it's a nice place to walk around. There used to be a "Prague" hotel near the park and this is where its name comes from. This is a good place for sporty people, as you can run or have an evening walk here. In the mornings, you can observe older people doing exercises in groups, so you can join them, if you want. Also, it's a good playground for small children.
During the summer season, I come here for running in the mornings and for walking in the evenings. I also love to sit and talk to local grandmas and grandpas about the good old Soviet days. If you are a Russian speaker, you can do that too. I also watch them play chess and Nardi (local board game).

"Rossia Market" Yerevan: a Soviet Modernist building that in my eyes looks like a big ship. At first I didn't know its story, but I still liked it!

"English Park" is Yerevan's oldest purposely-designed public park. I've been going there for years because it's surprisingly private despite being central.
