Travel: Foreign tourists impressed by Armenian architecture

Panorama, Armenia

Ara Tarverdyan, Director of Service for the Protection of Historical Environment and Cultural Museum Reservations SNCO, together with the service staff and a group of young men, have come up with a unique initiative.

As the press service of the organization told Panorama.am, they delivered flyers informing about a number of tourist attractions in Armenia (including Garni, Zvartnots, Metsamor, Lori Berd, Zorats Karer (also called Karahunj) and other the others) in four languages (English, Russian, French, Persian) to the foreign tourists. The flyers were delivered at the area near the Opera and Ballet Theate, Northern Avenue and the Republic Square in Yerevan, Armenia.

The foreign tourists, who were admired by Armenia’s beauty, listened attentively to the information about the Armenian monuments provided by Ara Tarverdyan and his staff.

Many of the tourists who visited Armenia from Australia, Iran, Spain, India, UK, China and Russia, opened up about being impressed by the Armenian architecture.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
