    A place where the Gods reside? Or is this the heaven we have been
    searching for? At least that is the sense one gets when in the presence
    of this extraordinary and strange beauty. I say strange because in
    my own life at least, I have rarely been confronted with so much
    alluring beauty, calmness, tranquility, and a seductive manifestation
    of nature's splendor.

    Gosh lake is located in the Tavoush region of Armenia, near the
    villages of Ganja and Gosh. Our hike started from Goshavank, and from
    there, a muddy, steep climb to an altitude of approx. 1550 meters
    (5000 feet). It is roughly one and a half hours to two hours to reach
    this point. But once you get here, you realize that a "heavenlike"
    place like this should not be an easy stroll.
