Kanaker-Zeytun ((アルメニア語:Քանաքեռ-Զեյթուն)), is one of the 12 districts of Yerevan, the capital of Armenia, located in the northeastern part of the city. Located on a hill overlooking the central part of Yerevan, the administrative district of Kanaker-Zeytun has common borders with the districts of Avan, Arabkir, Kentron and Nor Nork. By the outer border it is adjacent to the provinces of Armavir, Aragatsotn and Kotayk.〔(Kanaker-Zeytun District at Yerevan.am )〕 The district is unofficially divided into smaller neighborhoods such as Kanaker, Nor Zeytun and Monument. ==History== Kanaker has developed as a satellite town of Yerevan throughout the history. With many historical churches and monuments, Kanaker was severely damaged in the earthquake of 1679. The town has played a key role in the Russian siege of Yerevan in 1827. Many prominent figures of Armenian literature and art are natives of Kanaker such as historian Zakaria Kanakertsi, writer Khachatur Abovian and musician Djivan Gasparyan. Nor Zeytun was founded between 1946-1948 by Armenian migrants who arrived from Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Iran, Iraq and Greece. With the quick growth of the city of Yerevan, Kanaker and Nor Zeytun were gradually absorbed and became part of the Armenian capital. After the independence of Armenia, Kanaker and Nor Zeytun were merged and formed a single district within the capital Yerevan, under the name Kanaker-Zeytun. Kanaker-Zeytun is a gradually developing district, with a population of m79,600 and an area of 8.1km². The district is home to industrial plants including the Yerevan Champagne Wines Factory, the Coca-Cola Bottlers Armenia Factory and the Pepsi Bottlers Armenia Factory. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kanaker-Zeytun District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
