YEREVAN, October 30. / ARKA /. Armenia’s leading telecommunications operator VivaCell-MTS has provided four cultural institutions in Yerevan with modern information infrastructure. Wi-Fi corners with free one-year Internet access have been created in the Museum of History of Yerevan, the Yerevan Museum of Modern Art, Karen Demirchyan Museum, and the Erebuni Historical and Archeological Museum-Reserve.
