アルメニアでの 周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

A good place to hike and camp for a night. Be prepared to have loud neighbors with cars but they are stopping the music around 11PM😄

One of the most beautiful places in armenia. The biggest lake. The structures are very fascinating to look at. And the clouds gathering near the mountains during a sunset with the soft breeze is such a lovely memory for you keep.

Beautiful.

Would recommend, might be a little crowded but overall a beautiful place

The pagan temple is dedicated to the sun god and rises almost unrealistically from the landscape. The temple was built in 66 AD, but was reduced to rubble by an earthquake in 1679 until it was faithfully rebuilt in the mid-1960s.

The structure is a peripteral temple on a leveled base and was probably dedicated to the god Mihr. The entablature is supported by 24 Ionic columns. Unlike other Greco-Roman temples, it is made of basalt (Wikipedia).

According to an inscription in the smaller of the two churches, the monastery was founded and endowed with goods in 874 (871) by Princess Mariam, daughter of the "Prince of Princes" (from 862, king from 884 to 890) Ashot Bagratuni and widow of the regional prince Vasak Gabor of Gegharkunik in Syunik (reigned 851–859). Around 800, some monks had already built a chapel and several cells on the site of a fortress destroyed by Muhammad ibn Marwan around 701/702. The monk and later Catholicos Mashtots became the founding abbot of the princely monastery. In 883, Ashot Bagratuni donated a cross relic with a precious staurothek, received from Emperor Basil I, to the monastery, as well as numerous other properties (Wikipedia).

Watch the basalt columns of the Symphony of Stones.

The bronze sculpture of a woman smoking a cigarette is one of the famous female sculptures created by Fernando Botero. His modern bronze sculptures are known for their disproportionate body volumes, and this bronze female sculpture reflects his style. On August 27, 2012, the famous Colombian sculptor Fernando Botero's "Smoking Woman" work was placed in Cafesjian's "sculpture garden" in the Cascade complex, Yerevan. The sculpture was created in 1987. The sculpture of Yerevan is one of the copies. Unlike Botero's previous works in Yerevan, this sculpture was criticized by many residents, for whom it was unusual to see a naked smoking woman in the center of their capital. But over time, residents got used to the statue.

The Cafesjian Center for the Arts is dedicated to bringing the best of contemporary art to Armenia and presenting the best of Armenian culture to the world. Inspired by the vision of its founder, Gerard L. Cafesjian, the Center offers a wide variety of exhibitions, including a selection of important work from the Cafesjian Art https://www.cmf.am/About-CCA

This bronze statue dates from 1986 and is sided, at the "Cafesjian Sculpture Garden", by two other works also by Fernando Botero, the "Cat" and the "Smoking Woman".

Nice place for a little walk. At night the street is nicely lit but unfortunately you can't see the rock walls.

The geological formation is incredible. The path is next to the basalt wall, it will be safe until a rock falls on someone's head. Today, entry was 300 drams. The structure they built for pedestrians is good, I believe it is possible to travel the route with a wheelchair too. I entered from the side that comes from the valley, going down the street next to the entrance to the Temple of the Sun (separate entrance). There is another entrance for those coming by car, and this one has a slightly steep slope. I didn't like the number of cars passing among the pedestrians, it seems to me that it will turn into a place for mass tourism.

Gosh (Armenian: Գոշ) is a village in the Dilijan Municipality of the Tavush Province of Armenia. The village is named after Mkhitar Gosh (1130–1213) who took part in the rebuilding of the Nor Ghetik Monastery during the 12th-13th centuries, which was destroyed by an earthquake in 1188. The newly built monastery was later named Goshavank in honor of Mkhitar. Goshavank is located just off the main highway that runs through the village. On a hillside west of the monastery complex sits a chapel that also serves as the tomb of Mkhitar Gosh. It was situated to overlook the monastery in which he helped build. The chapel is square in plan with a single centrally located dome above and one portal. Nearby are the ruins of what is said to be Mkhitar's house. Stone foundations and low walls still exist.

The Surb Astvatsatsin, which stands southeast of Surb Arakelots, has a floor plan of around 12 × 15 meters and is slightly larger than Surb Arakelots with its 8 × 10 meters and was probably only built after Surb Arakelots. It also contains a small side chapel that was added later and several side rooms at both ends of the north side. Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sewanavank

On the site of a fortress destroyed by Muhammad ibn Marwan around 701/02, some monks had already built a chapel and a few cells around the year 800. The founding abbot of the princely monastery was the monk and later Catholicos Mashtoz. In 883 Aschot Bagratuni donated to the monastery a cross relic received from Emperor Basil I with a valuable storage archive as well as numerous other lands. The core of the monastery were three small churches consecrated around the year 874, two of which still exist today (Surb Arakelots and Surb Astvatsatsin). The other monastic buildings (library, school, residential building, etc.) were grouped around these, none of which remain today. In contrast to almost all other Armenian monasteries, Sevanavank was not surrounded by a defensive wall, as its island location did not make this necessary. Life in the monastery was strict, as the monastery was intended for monks from Etchmiadzin who had sinned there, as well as for Armenian nobles who had fallen from grace.
