The visits of Armenians to their birthplace can form a great part in the development of ethnic tourism in Armenia. As \u00a0ethnic tourism also includes visits that are directed to roots, when the tourist returns to his birthplace to get acquainted to its national culture and traditions. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Ethnic Parks in Armenia<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the important factors of developing ethnic tourism in Armenia are new ethnic infrastructures. It doesn\u2019t suggest creation of new ethnic elements but it\u2019s a union of all ethnic cultural elements. It is a creation of national ethnic parks. What are these ethnic parks?
