Shake Falls - Sisian, Armenia


Shake Falls is the biggest waterfalls in Armenia and is very beautiful.
To see Shake Falls in it's full glory, and other great photos of Armenia you should see this book Armenia in Colour.
"We went to the biggest waterfall in Armenia, Shake Waterfall. His Excellency (The then US Ambassador to Armenia, Mr John Evans) climbed very close to the water fall and said he could feel the heat behind him and the coolness in front, coming off the waterfall. There were two young women at the base of the falls, boiling Armenian sourj (coffee) on an open fire."

The above is taken from my other blog on MSN Space which consists of seven articles I wrote during our six month stay in Armenia in 2005, that were published in various magazines and newspapers. I also have a lot of links there to other Armenian websites and blogs.
