#401: PRIVATE Guided tour to Sevanavank, Sevan lake and peninsula
This is a short introductory tour of the region Gegharkunik.
The main site of the tour is the diamond of Armenia, the Lake Sevan.
We will visit the Sevan peninsula. In the middle ages, the level of water was higher and the peninsula was an island where the monastery of Sevanavank was located. Nowadays only two churches remain from the monastic complex, however, up to our days next to them exists and functions the Christian seminary.
Located on the top of the former island, next from the church opens a beautiful view of the lake.
Not far from the church is located local souvenirs market where one can find quite interesting gifts for friends and memories for him or herself.
In addition to the main activities if one wishes, can have a boat tour around the lake and have lunch.
Besides the up-mentioned options, it is possible to do paragliding over the lake. If you are fond of strong feelings, and always desired to fly do not miss your opportunity.
