Chaired by Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan, a consultation took place on the construction of the "Park of Life" in the Yerevan Botanical Garden dedicated to the memory of the martyrs of all Artsakh wars.

The construction project of the Park of Life, the architectural solutions and the functional zoning scheme were presented to the Prime Minister. It was noted that the project covers an area of about 35 ha, it is planned to have walking and recreation areas, alleys, bicycle paths, a stepped cascade, and the peak will be the section symbolizing the lives of heroes martyred for the Motherland. An entirely new irrigation system will be built to serve the needs of the entire Botanical Garden.

Issues related to project implementation were discussed at the consultation. Infrastructural solutions, organization and accessibility of movement routes, furnishing, tree density, biodiversity and other topics were addressed. A number of proposals and observations were presented. The issue of improving the Botanical Garden was also a subject of discussion. In this context, the Head of the Government proposed to start the construction works of the "Park of Life" and develop the Botanical Garden development plan in parallel, as projects complementing and continuing each other.

The Prime Minister emphasized once again that the purpose of "Park of Life" is to appreciate life, to symbolize the presence of the martyrs of all Artsakh wars, and the architectural solutions should be completely based on this logic. Nikol Pashinyan noted that any commercial activity should be ruled out in the territory of the park.

Prime Minister Pashinyan instructed to start the works, taking note of the discussed proposals and ideas.
