Geographical location

You can go to Genchovtsi, driving by the fourth class road, which has many sharp turns and beech trees. There is no regular public transport to the village.
History
Nobody knows exactly when the village of Genchovtsi was founded. But by the words said of old people, the village was named after three brothers who originally settled in the region. They were: Gencho (village of Genchovtsi), Bogdan (village of Bogdanchovtsi), and Fargo (village of Fargovtsi). In the past, Genchovtsi was called Genchomaali – meaning something like a neighbourhood or very small village. Another interesting fact is that many years before Genchovtsi was founded, in the middle of the village, there were graveyards.

In the autumn, winter and spring the population of the village is about 10–15 people, principally men and women over 70 years old.
