It is a very beautiful place, which unfortunately now no one wants to spend money on and restore it to its former greatness. Once this area was the center of the city, but now it is the outskirts of Gyumri. When you come or go here, buy a few loaves of bread at the store, a couple of packs of coffee and some dog food, wonderful Grandma Nadia lives nearby (if you left the road to the left of the fountain in the bushes house), just shout and she will come out and tell you how it was before the earthquake. Grandma lives very poorly and for the fact that she tells every tourist a great story, you can thank her with what I wrote above. We didn't know, we gave you money, but now you know and you can buy what you need right away.
It is a pity that it does not work, it has the potential to be a center of attraction for tourists.
If people go to see a fountain that's not working, imagine what kind of flow it would be if it were repaired...
We really hope that it will work someday.

The place is impressive. After reading the story in advance, you understand the scale of the disaster. Previously, this fountain was the center of the city, there was a campus nearby.
Baba Nadia, whom many people write about, really lives there. We called her, but she didn't tell us anything. But we have heard a lot of complaints about the country and the people.
