YEREVAN, September 7. /ARKA/. Armenian government will consider
Thursday the Yerevan municipality's proposal to mark the city day
on September 21, the day of declaration of Armenia's independence,
this year.
Explaining the city authorities' proposal on its official website, the
government says that the 20th anniversary of Armenia's independence
will be celebrated in a big way. Therefore it would be reasonable
to hold the City Day's festivities along with the Independence Day
celebration.
Yerevan (ancient Urartu kingdom's Erebuni) was founded in 782 B.C.
Erebuni's ruins are on Arin-Berd Hill in Yerevan. The city was founded
by Urartian King Argishti I.
In accordance with an appropriate governmental decision, the Day of
Yerevan is celebrated on the second Saturday of October.
