14 June Yervandashat
This capital city was built by the last king Yervand in 220 BCE, on a hill, in Yeraskhadzor region of Ayrarat province where the Arax and Akhuryan rivers meet. After the death of Yervand, Yervandashat remained one of the largest cities of Armenia up to the 4th century, but the troops of Persian king Shapur II fully destroyed it.
