Yerevan Shuka (market) No. 1

There are some great Soviet-era buildings like this purpose built market hall in central Yerevan. The entrance has fantastic filigree-metalwork showing fruit, vegetable and animal produce. Inside are concrete stalls for easy cleaning, and friendly vendors who wanted me to have a taste of everything, even if I didn't buy. Unfortunately there were also the most primitive toilets I've seen all trip.
