Today VivaCell-MTS launched a video kiosk in the Monastic Complex Khor Virap. For the first time in Armenia such a kiosk was installed near St. Gayane Chapel, in Holy Edchmiadzin. The project is aimed at facilitating the Armenian historical monument awareness in the world and improving the positions of Armenia as a touristic destination.
The video device is placed in front of the St. Gevorg Chapel. Underneath the chapel is a deep pit, where Gregory the Illuminator was imprisoned. The video kiosk gives visitors a tool to shoot a one-minute long video and send it to close ones and friends via e-mail for AMD 500. The location of the device allows having the church on the background of the video. The message contains a link to information about the monument, so that the recipient of the video can both see the greeting and familiarize oneself with the history of the historical site. The device also offers an opportunity to send the message in English, Armenian, or Russian.
“Video kiosk is the easiest and fastest way to capture and share online the memorable moments and impressions with family and friends, who are far away, through a video message. Thanks to this reliable solution and high-speed internet provided by VivaCell-MTS, visitors to historical and cultural sites are provided with a convenient means to collect and store memories. Overall, the video kiosk project is another means to help position Armenia as a comfortable touristic destination. This solution will also help create emotional bones between our sacred land and our guests,” told VivaCell-MTS General Manager Ralph Yirikian.
More video devices are planned to be installed near the historical and cultural monuments located on the territory of Armenia in the future.
The complete information about the historical and cultural monuments is provided by the Mother See of Holy Etchmiatsin.
