On the northern part of Mashtots avenue there is Matenadaran (translated as a book depository), one of the world's most ancient libraries. Its collections comprise ancient Armenian books and miniature paintings, that have gained worldwide fame. Among its unique treasures there are the works of ancient classical authors and rare manuscripts, that have come to our days only in the Armenian translation.
