    Many fans and enthusiasts of Vahan Terian, who was one of Armenia's
    greatest poets, will celebrate Terian Day on February 24 in occasion
    of the 125th anniversary of the great poet.

    Special celebrations will be held in Gandza village of Ninotsmindi
    region of Javakheti (Georgia), where Vahan Terian was born. The

    history, culture, literature, and country's outstanding persons.

    Vahan Terian died in January 1920, in Russia's Orenburg, where Terian

    necessary to organize celebrations in regions as well. By Armenian

    celebrations, too," said Arushan Hakobian.

    The School after Vahan Terian will host a range of ceremonies since
