Czech Photographer Presents an Exhibition In Nagorno Karabakh

It is not the first time that the Czech photographer has visited Artsakh and during the opening has announced that by means of such exhibitions they are trying to show to the whole world who the people of Artsakh are, what kind of a country it is.

The mystery of Artsakh treasures attracts not only photographers. The efforts of the “Armenian architectural studies” non-governmental organization will soon result in a release of a book called “The Artsakh Bridges”, which includes the 95 bridges of historical Artsakh, with measurements and photography.

The book comprises the Norther Artsakh, Shahumyan, Getashen and other regions. The Armenian bridges are a special phenomenon in the world bridge construction. They are monuments of great value, due to their engineering meaning and deep thought.

Being in Nagorno Karabakh, the photographers mentioned that the freedom struggle with Azerbaijan had greatly influenced Artsakh while not breaking the people’s spirit. Despite the hardships left by the war, the life in Artsakh is quickly reestablishing. A construction of a new housing district, which takes place in the Martuni region of Artsakh (the town of Martuni) has been initiated by the Artsakh investment fund. Martuni is the fifth town where a new housing district is being constructed. The national hero Monte Melkonyan’s merit in the liberation of Martuni is great, therefore it is possible that the new district will carry his name.
