Villages of Russian Molokans (national minoraty in Armenia) 

Russian Molokans inhabit a wild area of alpine mountains and sloping valleys with farms by the side of the road. The villages are called Lermontovo and Fioletovo

Molokans - Russian Old Believers
Molokans are Russian Old Believers, descendants of Orthodox rebels exiled in the 18th century to Armenia’s “Siberia” (Amassia) and Sevan ("Yelenovka").    They have since populated numerous villages mainly in Lori, Shirak and Aragatsotn regions. Once numbering around 72,000, most recent census figures  show  the population of Russians in Armenia at around 12- 13,000, 5000 of which are Molokons.
The ancestors of the Molokans are the peasant class in Russia and a few other nationalities in the empire. By religion they belonged to the Orthodox   (Greek   -   Russian) church, although they resist the worship of icons and other representations of God, which they consider corrupted and lifeless because they were created by an idea, not God. They profess the belief in an omnipresent God who lives in the soul of each human being.
These "Old believers" were first called iconoclasts, then Molokans, because they did not observe fasts as dictated by the Orthodox church, ate meat and drank milk (Russian for milk is 'moloko'), which was a staple of the peasant's life then.

Villages 
You will find cabbages, carrots and potatoes set out on the sides of the highway when they are in season. The vegetables here are among the tastiest in a country known for its vegetables and fruits— just stop and someone will come out to sell some. A little secret, they may not set them out, but in the spring and summer they also have cherries, plums, canned fruits and compotes, mountain honey and wild mushrooms.  Ask nicely and you may just get some.
