Lyon Park, Urban park in Erebuni District, Armenia
Lyon Park spans 17 hectares of landscaped grounds with an artificial lake covering 8 hectares in the southeastern section of Yerevan.
The artificial lake within the park dates back to the 8th century BC when King Argishti I of Urartu constructed it for water supply purposes.
The name changes from Tokhmakh to Komsomol and finally to Lyon Park reflect the successive cultural influences on Yerevan through different periods.
The park contains multiple walking paths, benches, and recreational facilities, making it accessible through several entrance points in the Erebuni District.
Vardavar Lake within the park offers conditions for windsurfing activities, creating an unexpected water sports venue in this landlocked country.
