Ilandag (Snake Mountain)
The Ilandag Mountain has turned into the symbol of Julfa region and the whole of Nakhchivan. The name of the mountain means “Snake Mountain“, because this high mountain, which can bee see from everywhere in Julfa, is full of poisonous reptiles.
Now time Ilandag – Snake Mountain became natural trademark of Nakhchivan, you can see this almost everywhere. Its distinctive cleft peak, naturally, has legend attached to it: as the flood began to subside, Noah’s Ark crashed through the surfacing summit on the way to Mount Gamigaya, east Nakhchivan, in a reversal of the route normally related in the west, which has Agri Dag as the final landing.
