YEREVAN, JANUARY 15, ARMENPRESS. The city of Yerevan is planning to build a new forest-park in collaboration with the private sector, City Hall Nature Protection Department Director Khachik Hakobyan told a news conference.

The new park will cover an area of 20 hectares in the Nubarashen district.

Hakobyan said the area is near the district’s landfill.

He said a new drip irrigation network will be constructed and a variety of valuable trees will be planted.

“In the future, when the Nubarashen landfill will be closed, the forest area will also continue covering this area,” he said.
