A country I would like to visit

If there's some place that i want to go over others it's Armenia, for some reasons that I will try to explain in the next paragraph.
There's a band called System of a Down, and the wrote a song called "holy mountains", that is about the Armenian genocide, and for this song I did an investigation from my old school, because I found interesting this theme, and now,  I have a desire to know more about it, but no the things that you can read in a book or an article from internet, I want to visit the monuments, the museums, and learn about his culture, traditions and history in a deep way.Mapa de Armenia
I don't remember a lot of things about Armenian culture, i remember that they were between 4 country's, and for this reasons they were invaded for territory, by, if my memory works, Persians and Turks. Also, were the Turks that are responsible about the Armenian genocide, by the systematic killing of Armenian people and the exile of them. Curiously, most of the Armenian died in the dessert, starved to death or dehydrated.
The Armenian Genocide memorial complex (Tsitsernakaberd).JPGIf I ever go to Armenia, would visit the tsitsernakaberd (literally Swallow's Fortress), a monument who was build to commemorate the victims of the genocide. A thing that i find interesting of this monument it's the eternal flame that it has, in a depth of 1.5 meters, in dedication to the 1.5 millions of victims.
Another things that I would like to do here could be taste the typical food, i don't know about the food, but I heard good critics about the vegetables and fruits harvested in Armenia, so I expect tasty food of high quality. Also i heard that the nature of Armenia it's beautiful, so take a guided visit can be in my plans too.

To finish, i don't have enough information to decide if live in Armenia it's a good idea, may study there could be a possibility, but i'm fine studying in Chile, so i think my trip to Armenia will be only to visit the country.
