Aregak Bakery Café Gyumri
“Aregak” Inclusive Bakery-Café in Gyumri is not just a place to eat, but a unique social initiative that brings people together and promotes an inclusive society. It was founded in 2018 by Caritas Armenia within the framework of the “Emili Aregak” Development Center, creating employment opportunities for young people with disabilities and their mothers, with the support of the European Union and the Austrian Development Agency. The café is considered one of the first inclusive cafés in Armenia, where a significant part of the staff are people with special needs. Here, they not only work but also gain independence, skills, and opportunities for social integration. “Aregak” was created with the belief that work and participation in public life are fundamental rights for everyone. It has become a successful example of social entrepreneurship, offering quality bakery products, coffee, and desserts, while creating a warm and welcoming environment where every visit carries social value. Today, the café is an important spot in Gyumri, attracting both locals and tourists with its mission, atmosphere, and meaningful concept.

Vardan Mamikonyan Monument
The equestrian statue of Vardan Mamikonyan is one of Gyumri's most powerful and inspiring symbols, towering over Vardanants Square. Created by sculptor Artush Papoyan and installed in 2008, it depicts the Armenian Sparapet (Commander-in-Chief) at a decisive moment during the Battle of Avarayr. The monument stands out for its dynamism and strength, embodying the unbreakable will, faith, and freedom-loving spirit of the Armenian people. It serves as one of the city's primary gathering spots, where historical memory meets the rhythm of modern life in Gyumri.
