Lastiver (Armenia Discovery)

Do you like discovering interesting places? The Armenian mountains are the home of thousands of similar places. Although Armenia is a small country, surely, you won’t manage to be in every sight cause they are countless in Armenia. Every place, building, and even tree in Armenia has a great historical and cultural value.

One of such attractive places is Lastiver, Armenia. Lastiver is a few hours drive from the capital Yerevan. It’s an entertainment area which lies in the village Yenokavan, Tavush Province. The village is 10 kilometers away from the city of Ijevan.

Park Village Lastiver

Lastiver is a place also known as Park Village Lastiver. The name is translated from Armenian as “up to the raft”. Here you feel as if in a fairy tale or in your childhood dream. There are a few different miracles to see in this fantastic space. Let’s check them out.

Lastiver Cave

Once, the Lastiver cave was a refuge for the local people during the Mongol invasions. People made a ladder which takes to the cave. That ladder reminded of a raft. Here is where the name of the place comes from.

The cave of Lastiver is a two-storied structure which is located in a flat slope of a canyon. There are also some signs that seem as if the author tried to illustrate a wedding. They say that these signs were made during the isolation of the author. That’s why the cave is also known as Lastiver Anapat or Lastiver Desert (“anapat” is translated as “desert”).
