Van/Turkey Akdamar Island
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Contributor and pilot FlyONE created this beautiful drone video of a famous Armenian cathedral on Akdamar, an island in the middle of the enormous Lake Van of Eastern Turkey. Akdamar is one of four islands in the lake, Turkey's largest and one of the largest lakes in the world having no outlet. The Holy Cross Cathedral was built in the 9th century AD by the king of one of the Armenian provinces. It had fallen into a near-ruined condition and was nearly demolished but was subsequently saved and then restored.
