Stop 1: Sevan Lake (Hayravank)
The high-mountainous Lake Sevan is the "pearl of Armenia". Lake Sevan is located at an altitude of 1,900 m above sea level in the center of the Armenian highland, 63 km northeast of the Armenian capital of Yerevan city and is the largest of the Caucasus lakes. From all sides, Sevan is surrounded by mountain ranges, offering a stunning view of an alpine lake.. The lake is famous for its purest fresh water, and the pure mountain air has a beneficial effect on health. Hayravank Monastery is an Armenian architectural monument built in the 9th -13th century in the Hayravank village on the coastal foreland of the Sevan Lake. We are in a broken state; without the dome, the church and the courtyard are preserved. The monastery reached us in a dilapidated form, without a dome. The church and the porch were preserved.
Stop 2: Noratus Cemetery, Selim Pass
The trip will continue along the shore to reach Noratous, a village that is home to the largest collection of the Armenian Khachkars – stone steles engraved with a cross, designed to show the way to salvation. According to the legend, Hayk – the ancestor of all Armenians – ordered his people to decorate every single stone in Armenia, which is why you will see some 3000 of these decorated stones, depicting various stories from different ages. Selim Pass is a mountain pass in Armenia. It is located at an altitude of 2 500 meters.
