Drifting over Lake Sevan

Raiding my old photos I'd forgotten about whilst obsessing over strange Soviet Architecture - there's old and new here from a beautiful day out I had to Lake Sevan, Armenia, many years ago now...

I removed the poem that was up before too as I decided it wasn't very good!

Krestovsky Pereval Belvedere

I've finally found out what this strange viewing platform I stumbled upon when getting a marshrutka up the Georgian Military Highway to Kazbegi is. It was built in 1983 to celebrate Russo-Georgian friendship. The view was rather spectacular too...

On the same roadtrip I was also fascinated by this building that I liked to imagine was a church for lost horses - turns out it is an abandoned holiday camp that is now used by monks...
