iconic skyline and happy life.
We’re thrilled to have you here and hope you will enjoy all
that this remarkable city has to offer. To truly know Armenia is to

Glorious Victories of May 9
Great Patriotic War and Liberation of Shushi The history of the Armenian people is full of heroic pages. Two glorious victories, which we celebrate on May 9 - the liberation of Shushi and the victory in the Great Patriotic War - come to complete these heroic pages. The liberation of Shushi has great historical significance which is connected with one of the most valiant pages of the newest history of Armenia – the victory in the liberation battle of Artsakh. The city of Shushi played a great strategic role and its liberation sharply changed the motion of the war. During those days Shushi became the gate to Stepanakert, and giving up Shushi would mean the immediate invasion by the enemy to the capital of Karabagh. So, one of the most perfectly organized operations of Armenian military art – the liberation of city-fortress Shushi was realized on May 8-9 of 1992. The military operations were organized and directed by the Armenian talen-ted commanders and the heroes of liberation struggle by the management of legendary general A. Ter-Tadevosyan (Commandos). Taking into consideration the predominant forces of the rival it was a “crazy” thing by the Armenians to begin the battle but as it is said the best way of protection is attacking. The implementation of this heroic step was carried out by the commanders of the 4 fronts who put the glorious end to the military operation named “Wedding in the Mountains”, and at dawn of May 9
12
Welcome To Armenia
they entered Shushi. The Armenian Tricolor waved on the dome of Ghazanchetsots Cathedral – the ornament of Shushi, and Karabagh gained its factual independence by which the Armenians reaffirmed their right to live in the Armenian land. It is interesting that the name of this city-fortress which is situated at 11 km from Stepanakert derives from the word “Shosh” which in the dialect of Artsakh means “the highest sprout of the tree”. So, the city was named Shushi due to its high geographical position. The 9th of May is the day of victory and peace, the victory which was erected by the army of Soviet Union in the World War Two. During the war 500 000 Armenians replenished the army of the Soviet Union; 106 of them became the heroes of the Patriotic War. Besides, the Armenian army gave three marshals and one admiral. Nowadays, all the former Soviet countries celebrate May 9 as the day of victory, and the Armenians will always celebrate this glorious day as a double holiday, as the victory day in World War Two when in Berlin the Armenian soldiers danced our national dance “kochari”, and as the day of 22th anniversary of liberation of Shushi. Each year on this day the Armenians visit the Victory Monument to pay their homage to the victims of the war at the “Monument of the Unknown Soldier”. Then, after visiting the Mother Armenia Military Museum all people begin celebrating the holiday with great solemnity.
May 28 - The Day of Independence The Heroic Battles and the Victories
May is a month of victories for the Armenians. The history shows that the Armenian people erected all the most important victories in May. And now continuing the tradition of spring holidays, on May 28 we celebrate the independence of the First Republic of Armenia. Armenia lost its statehood after the fall of Cilician Kingdom in the 14th century. It is obvious that a nation with freedom-loving spirit like the Armenians could not tolerate that situation for a long time, and 6 centuries later the Armenian state must have been regained and renovated. The independence day of the First Armenian Republic is officially celebrated since 1992. The Armenians gained the desired statehood and independence due to the inflexible will-power, clearness of purpose and whole-hearted struggle. The battle was born in a difficult period for the Armenians, when the people had hardly avoided the extermination program of Ottoman Empire. But they found the strength to struggle for the sake of their independence. The reestablishment of the statehood of the country was gained by a number of heroic battles. The regular Armenian troops and the detachments made by volunteers were fighting in three fronts – Gharaqilisa, BashAparan and Sardarapat. They managed to end the three battles with glorious victories. Here are the victories due to which the Armenian people reclaimed the long-wished independence. On 14
Welcome To Armenia
May 28 of 1918 the National Council of Armenia confirmed the decision to establish the Independent Republic of Armenia. The president of the Council Avetis Aharonyan announced the declaration of independence of Armenia to found the First Armenian Republic in a territory of 12000 square km. The Armenians, who have been longing for the indepen-dence for nearly 600 years were triumphant. In spite of the short life of only 2.5 years of the First Republic of Armenia, the declaration of independence was turning point in the political, religious and cultural life of Armenia as the parliament was elected, the government was formed and the Armenian Tricolor was adopted as the natioal flag of the state. Traditionally we always remember the victories erected by our heroes and with great solemnity celebrate the independence of the First Armenian Republic on May 28. The high-ranking officers and the ordinary people pay their homage to the victims of the heroic battles after which they participate in various events that are organized near the Sardarapat Monument, the memorial to the battle of Sardarapat. People also organize pilgrimages to the memorial of the battles of Bash-Aparan which is situated in Lori region. Of course, the main celebrations, concerts and the festive firework are held in the Republic Square in Yerevan.
