After breakfast at the hotel in Yenokavan, the day begins with a visit to a Molokan house. Molokans are part of a distinct Christian sect that originated in the Russian Empire in the 18th century. Known for their modest lifestyle, Molokans value honesty, hard work, and simplicity. They avoid the pursuit of wealth, instead focusing on helping neighbors and friends. Their homes, though small and simple, are impeccably clean and well-kept. Most Molokans engage in agriculture and animal husbandry, and they are particularly famous for their homemade sauerkraut, a staple in their diet and culture. Following the visit, the journey continues to Tsover Lake, also known as "Dsegi Tsover," located about 3 km southeast of the village of Dsegh. The lake, surrounded by dense forests to the south, enhances its natural beauty and creates a serene, picturesque setting. Stretching 250 meters from north to south and 200 meters across at its widest point, the lake offers a peaceful retreat. Its secluded location allows visitors to escape the hustle and bustle of urban life, fully immersing themselves in the stunning natural landscapes of the Lori region. With its peaceful waters and clear night skies, Tsover Lake is the perfect spot to enjoy nature's tranquility.
