Havana is the capital and largest city of Cuba, located on the northwestern coast of the island, and is an important political, economic and cultural center in the Caribbean. The 500-year-old city is known for its well-preserved colonial complexes, especially Old Havana (Historic Center of Havana), a UNESCO World Heritage Site dotted with Baroque churches, neoclassical palaces and colorful colonial residences. The old town's Morro Castle, the Plaza del Duomo and the Esplanade (Malecon) are iconic attractions that draw visitors from around the globe. Havana is also one of the birthplaces of Latin music, with impromptu salsa and rumba music in the streets, the aroma of cigars in the air, and a rich Caribbean flavor intertwined with revolutionary history, making it a "Pearl of the Caribbean" full of charm.
Sevan is a small town in the Armenian province of Gegharkunik, located in the eastern part of the country on the shores of Lake Sevan, about 66 kilometers from the capital city of Yerevan. The town is famous for its eponymous alpine lake, Lake Sevan, one of the largest freshwater lakes in Eurasia, at an altitude of about 1,900 meters above sea level, which is known as the "Pearl of Armenia".
Lake Sevan is surrounded by magnificent landscapes and crystal clear waters, making it an important tourist and recreational destination in Armenia. The town boasts historical monuments such as the Sevan Monastery, a 9th-century monastery situated on a peninsula overlooking the lake, which attracts many tourists and pilgrims. The local economy is based on fishing, tourism and agriculture, and the climate is cool enough for summer vacations.
With a population of around 20,000, the town of Sevan retains its traditional Armenian culture, while the infrastructure is constantly being improved to provide accommodation and catering services. It is an ideal starting point for exploring the nature and history of the Caucasus and is easily accessible for short trips.
