Jermuk Waterfall, Cascade waterfall in Vayots Dzor, Armenia.
The Jermuk Waterfall drops 68 meters over three dome-shaped cliffs, creating a white stream of water against the mountain landscape.
The waterfall has been documented since the 13th century, when historian Stepanos Orbelian first mentioned the natural formations in the Jermuk region.
Local folklore tells of a nobleman's daughter who transformed into a mermaid at the falls after her father discovered her love for a shepherd.
The waterfall reaches its maximum water flow between March and June, with free access for visitors throughout the year.
The three-tiered cascade structure of Jermuk makes it the highest waterfall formation in Armenia.
