KHACHKAR

The village Yeghegis in the Vayots Dzor region is not a simple place. Many centuries ago the Azeries moved to live in the Christian areas and have been living there since the Soviet times. In early 90s Azeris left the village, and now their houses are inhabited with Armenians. Today the most part of that houses are national treasures, because Azeris used commemorative crosstones and sacred stones during the construction, which have history of thousands years.
