- Lake Sevan - Known as the “pearl of Armenia,” Lake Sevan is a high-altitude lake situated at 1,900 meters above sea level in the heart of the Armenian highlands, 63 km northeast of Yerevan, the capital of Armenia. It is the largest lake in the Caucasus region. Surrounded by majestic mountain ranges, the lake offers breathtaking views of its alpine beauty. Renowned for its crystal-clear fresh water and pristine mountain air, Lake Sevan is celebrated for its health benefits.
- Monastery Sevanavank - The Sevanavank Monastery complex is located on the Sevan peninsula. Founded in 305 by St. Gregory the Illuminator, it was built on the site of a former pagan temple. In the 9th century, the Syunik princes established Sevan as a strategic point. In 874, Mariam, the wife of Prince Vassak of Syunik and daughter of King Ashot Bagratuni, constructed two churches here—St. Arakeloc and St. Astvatsatsin. These churches are adorned with intricately carved wooden capitals, some of which are preserved in the Armenian State Museum of History and the Art Gallery of St. Petersburg (Hermitage). In 1869, a spiritual school was established within the complex. The remnants of a church with a domed hall can still be seen atop the island’s mountain. The monastery grounds are rich with khachkars (cross-stones).
