The Armenian Genocide Museum is visited by up to 100,000 visitors every year. At the press conference held at the press center of Armenpress, Director of the Armenian Genocide Museum-Institute Edita Gzoyan proudly noted that their museum is among the three most visited museums in Armenia.
“The geography of visits to our museum is quite extensive, and it should be said that recently there have been some changes in the structure. If a few years ago the Armenian Genocide Museum was visited by more people from Russia and different European countries, now it is noticeable that the number of tourists from China, South Korea and the Philippines is increasing,” said Edita Gzoyan.
To create better conditions for tourists to visit the museum and provide information in foreign languages, the audio guide service is being expanded. Since last year the museum’s audio guide includes English, French and Russian languages. In cooperation with Brusovsky State University, the materials have been translated into Chinese and Korean, and the audio guide service will soon be available in these two languages as well. German, Arabic and Italian will be included in the future.
Edita Gzoyan informed that there are also Turks among the visitors. Their number reaches several hundreds every year. Last year 300 Turkish tourists visited the museum.
