Lake Sevan

The country's largest lake, Lake Sevan, is located in the center of Armenia and is a lovely site to explore during a vacation to the country. The lake is surrounded by several monasteries, the most spectacular of which is perhaps the Sevanavank Monastery, which provides a beautiful panoramic backdrop for a pleasant journey.

Windsurfing is one of the lake's recreational activities, and the lake's shoreline is lined with outstanding seafood eateries. Because Armenia lacks a coastline, Lake Sevan has a variety of famous beaches, making it the greatest site in the nation to sunbathe, with Sevan Bay and its surrounding mountains providing stunning views.

If you're traveling from Yerevan to Lake Sevan, it's highly recommended that you stay overnight and explore the area. You won't get to visit as many local businesses if you simply take a day trip up there way, but there are some excellent places to dine in and around Sevan, as well as some very intriguing locations to explore there.
