@toroarts The “casino & banch of hotels” that you’ve mentioned so negatively will create thousands of jobs, will add the country’s GDP by over $100 million annually, will finance the construction of the Egvard reservoir ($70 million), that is important for Lake Sevan, will increase the inbound tourism & decrease the outbound tourism, unite all Armenians around the only issue they all agree on, energize other projects. Only ecomicaly strong Armenia can survive today
@sarkisnick The work is in progress. There has been 3 articles within the last 2 months and very soon there will be a lot more due to the progress.
Bad idea to tie this project to Genocide, whoever thought this up is lacking sense of humanity. The right thing would be to relate this project to ancient history of Armenia. National revival should not be symbolized with a casinoand bunch of hotels. Whoever is behind this has no idea what national revival should be!
Has work really begun on this project? I don’t see any news articles on it.
@ArizonaFlame Please watch the video part 2. With all the high paying jobs the project will create, multymillion $ GDP growth that it will result in, which can be used to improve the infrastructure and for social purposes, and the progress in tourism industry, which continually creates wealth and improves the socializing skills, I don’t believe one can find a better way to create that kind of investment program and find a better way to invest.
This project seems great and all, but I would think that the money being spent on this could be used for better things. Upgrading the country’s infastructure, combating poverty, unemployment, corruption, etc.
@georgefj40 agree 100%. Stronger tourism = stronger Armenia. Not to mention all the jobs that can be created. Great idea.. no no, marvelous idea!
Yeghvard is so far from Sevan.
It’s 5 minites from Yerevan. So you can see ARARAT!
We are preparing Armenia for 2015, the 100 year commemoration of Armenian Genocide. The ski facilities are planed for Ara ler only and will be developed as part of this project.
The project is located in Yegvard area, 10 minutes from Yerevan, on the shore of a 1000 hectares man made reservoir, completion of which is part of this project.
This project will be a big economical improvement for Armenia.Excelent
No one can see Ararat from Sevan

Nice nice
Looks like somebody is preparing himself for time after opening Armenia-Turkey border…
I don’t understand who are going to provide ski sport activities on Ara Ler and on mount Aragats about which the comment is saying in this video…
