Armenia is often being called a
museum under the open air, and Yerevan is often regarded as a pink city. The
reason of it is that most of the buildings of Yerevan are made of the Armenian
special stone, called tuf. Tuf is volcano stone, it has light colors such as
pink, light pink, or creamy. So here is Armenia with its capital Yerevan.
Yerevan is older than most of the modern countries, it is known to be older
then Rome and it has a unique culture,
long and difficult history and delicious
cuisine. As mentioned above Armenia has a really old history and to able to
open the door of it and take look at it, one firstly has to open the doors of Yerevan.
Here is a list of a number of beautiful, mysterious old and new doors.
Let’s start with old ones. This is
a really old building of Yerevan, built especially in old Armenian traditional
style. As you can see, the door is white, it has some nice vibes on it, so we
can guess that this house belonged to a noble person.
This one is a really extraordinary
door and reminds a little bit of Greece. The white walls, the narrow resembles
Greece and Greek style. This door is on Saryan Street.
As mentioned above
Armenian nation represents one of the oldest civilizations in the world, sharing
along history, old culture and having gone through many and many things throughout
its history. At this point there is even an expression “Armenian eyes” which
means eyes that have seen a lot. Unfortunately, not many people know about
Armenia today, but Armenia was not as small in territory as it is now. Once it
was a big kingdom alongside with Roman Empire.
As Armenian
geographically lies between Europe and Asia, all the powerful conquers have
tried to invade and to conquer Armenia, Muslims
tried to make Armenians change their religion. Of course, some of them took the
major part of Armenian lands, but they could not break Armenians. Today we still
have Armenia, much smaller then It must have been but however, Armenia still
exists.
Today it the 101
anniversary of the Armenian Genocide committed by the Turkish government. They
have committed a horrendous slaughter against Armenians by killing 1.500000
Armenians in cold blood. Turkey does not even recognize the Armenian Genocide. It is a crime, for which Turkey must be
responsible for and the whole world must recognize Armenian genocide, because
first of all the denial of Armenian genocide caused the other genocides, such
as The Jews genocide. Let’s refer to
Hitler’s words “Does anyone remember the Armenian Genocide now? We can kill
Jews, no one will care”.
