`The program of construction of the `Noyland'
historical-archaeological and tourism center in the area next to
DalmaGardens is still too raw,' Chairman of the Union of Architects of
Armenia Mkrtich Minasyan told reporters today. He learnt about the
project from the City Hall's website and knows nothing about the
authors and financing.
`There have been no discussions in the Urban Development Council of
the City Hall,' Mkrtich Minasyan said. He said the `Noyland' is just
an idea, and there is still no money to implement it.
`It won't be built without discussions. This is the requirement of
law, which we have been guided by up until now,' he said.
According to the official website of the Yerevan City Hall, the
program envisages creating a thematic park that will restore the
legend of Noah's Ark. Four buildings symbolizing the four large
religions - a Christian church, a Muslim mosque, a Buddhist temple and
a Jewish synagogue - will also be built. It is noted that the works
will start in 2012 and will continue for three years. After
accomplishment, the program will contribute to the development of
tourism and culture in Armenia.
