This statue is located located in a park across the syree from the Vernissage Market. When at the open air market just walk straight to the end or back of it and cross the street thrre you will find the majestic statue of the man on horse. I went to this park mainly look at the guys roller blade. Other than the boys practising their skills, its just a concrete park with this prominent statue.

Vardan Mamikonyan statue on the street that bears his name. Vardan Mamikonyan was the hero and the leader of the Christian Armenian forces, who fought in the Battle of Avarayr against the Persians. The statue was placed in 1975 by sculptor Yervand Kochar. Yerevan has many impressive statues dotted about, this one stands out.

A famous military warrior, in early to mid 400 ad. The monument gives the impression the horse is leaping through the air with the leader astride, which makes it quite different from the norm.

legend has it that :
A horse rearing (both front legs in the air), the rider died in battle
one front leg up, the rider died of battle wounds
a horse standing, the rider died of natural causes.

I was on my way to the Vernissage or Weekend Market when I passed by a huge monument. The horsemen in the statue is Vardan Mamikonyan, who is both a military leader and a martyr. You will find lots of monuments of prominent people all around Armenia. This is a good way to immortalize the memory of those who have in one way or another contributed in making Armenia a great country.

One of the most significant monuments in the History of Armenia. A really good one for those who want to get closer to Armenian History and learn more about the important struggles of Armenians against Persian Kings. The monument itself cannot be defined as one of the beautiful ones in Yerevan, but surely it is an impressive and even a bit threatening one.

This is a statue that dominates the square it is set in. It is a modern sculpture depicting a middle age hero. A flying leap into battle. It is a statue that is heroic in every way. Fascinating to see it at different types of the day as it reveals different aspects each time- really worth a visit

We visited the Vardan Mamikonyan Statue after seeing the nearby Saint Gregory the Illuminator Cathedral and on our way to the Yerevan Vernissage. Even in the winter, when nearby shops and cafes are closed, the statue still puts off an aura of heroism and prestige. The statue was created by Yervand Kochar, and about a week earlier we had visited the Yervand Kochar Museum, also in Yerevan. I highly recommend you first visit the museum to better understand the sculptor, then take a walk to the statue itself.

Vardan Mamikonyan is an Armenian hero who fought in the Battle of Avarayr in the year 451 AD. The statue was completed and placed in 1975. The horseman and his steed are depicted in the moment of attacking the enemy and seem to be soaring in the air.

The statue is located close to the Republic Square and it depicts one of the legendary warriors of Armenia. It's one of the places which tourists photograph a lot.

Well located, not too far from Republic Square.
In a small park, across the street from the Vernisage open market.
