Armenia is a very beautiful country with a lot of very warm people. I felt easily at home when I went for a short vacation in Armenia. The family who adopted us for a while was so loving. The people we mingle with, though the communication barrier is really an issue, are very welcoming and nice. They are beautiful both inside and out. But behind these warm welcome and smile, this small Caucasian country has gone through a lot in the past. The saddest part of this country is the Armenian genocide.
The Genocide museum
I was lucky enough to be able to visit the Genocide museum. The museum is situated in Tsitsernakaberd in Yerevan. In 1915, the Ottoman empire arrested and eventually murdered about 1.5 million Armenians.
