Memorial Halls
长脸张少侠
[Armenian Genocide Museum] The Armenian Genocide Memorial Hall is located on the "Yanbao" hill in Tsitsernakaberd southwest of Yerevan City, built in 1965 after the outbreak of the 50th anniversary of the genocide in Yerevan. The memorial is small, and the exhibition covers a wide range of subjects, including the situation of Armenians in the Ottoman Empire before the genocide, the genocide itself, the reactions of the world at that time, and the impact of genocide on later history. There were three of the most brutal massacres of the twentieth century. The people are familiar with the Nazis’ massacre of Jews in Germany and the Rwandan genocide in the 1990s. But not much is known about the Armenian genocide. Under Ottoman Turks, Christian Armenians were not recognized by Muslims. Armenians, historically known as thorns, have been fighting tyranny. When the Ottoman Empire was dying, fearing that Armenians colluded with Russia against them, they kept looking for a massacre of Armenians until the height of World War I. Similar to the fate of the Jews, Armenians had been slaughtered many times in the late 19th century, but not on a large scale. It was not until World War I that Ottoman joined Germany’s side, and became a counter-measure with Britain, France and Russia. When the world war broke out in 1914, Ottoman and Russia faced each other and suffered a fiasco. His government was more concerned about the Armenians joining Tsarist forces to attack them. According to records, Armenians living in the Ottoman Empire before World War I had 2 million people, and after World War I had dropped to 500,000. Armenians had been fighting the tyranny of the Ottoman Empire, and their resistance group, the Fifth Column, had been fighting with the help of Russia. The Ottoman government used this as an excuse to expel the Armenians on the Anatolian Peninsula and drive them to the desolate outer Caucasus, the wasteland and deserts I kept seeing along the way from my car, barren land. Finally, this drive-through policy escalated into the Holocaust. Although the number of deaths is not accurate, scholars generally believe that 10,000 people died during World War I. In 1991, Armenia gained independence from the Soviet Union and established its territory, only 11% of the Armenian plateau. This is somewhat of a trigger for the serious situation in the future in the Transcaucasus region. Address: 8, 8 Tsitsernakaberd Hwy, Yerevan 0028 Armenian Transportation: Take bus 70 or 87 on the side of the road below the Yerevan step Time: 10:00-15:30

帅气的频频
It must be a good weather to come to this place. Standing in the deep pit monastery looking at the Attella Mountain, what is poetry and distance... Maybe it is the eternal pain in the hearts of Armenians, the snowy mountains are still in the hands of the Turks. The signal in the monastery will show the signal of Turkey! There are two pits! The pits are small and need to be patiently queued.

Cemeteries
山水人生
After a journey of about 136 km and less than three hours, we arrived at Noratus Cemetery near Lake Sevan at 15:20 pm. It is a huge cemetery with a modern human cemetery, but its history dates back to the Middle Ages. Various sculptures and tombstone shapes bring the cemetery a sense of artistic paradise, especially the world's largest cemetery with Armenian cross tombstones is a precious cultural relics here. Many ancient tombstones, said to have a history of thousands of years, are they brought the vicissitudes of the cemetery. We circled the cemetery, there are basically no tourists here, I did not expect such a cemetery to become a tourist attraction.
