Source of cold waters; Ayazmapari Nature Park

You can feel the aesthetics of nature with mythological stories in Kaz Mountain National Park with its magnificent landscapes, relaxing green areas and many spas. Ayazma Spring Nature Park, which is an important point of both Greek mythology and Orthodox Christians, is known as the point where beauty contests are held. When you listen to the voice of mythology, it describes the first competition as follows.

Here we see the World's First Beauty Contest held between Aphrodite, Hera and Athena. According to the legend, when the gods gathered for the wedding of Thetis and Peleus, Eris (Nifak), who was not invited to the wedding, threw a golden apple to the place where Athena, Hera and Aphrodite were. "To the most beautiful" is written on the apple. The "I am the most beautiful" argument begins between the three goddesses. Zeus orders that Paris on Mount Ida be appointed as the judge for the selection of the most beautiful. The goddesses brag about their beauty in front of Paris and promise her gifts. Hera, if the kingdom of the universe chooses itself for Paris; Athena's invincibility in battle; Aphrodite promises the love of Helen, the most beautiful of women. Thereupon, Paris decides that the most beautiful of the three goddesses is Aphrodite and gives her the golden apple.

Ayazma is also the name given to springs or springs considered sacred by Orthodox Christians. This nomenclature remains valid until the study. The spring, named after the Ayazma Spring Nature Park, continues from the spring, which was called this by the Christians in ancient times.

In the Ayazma forest vehicle, its view to a ground that is the subject of legends, its unique flora, the highest light in the world after the Alps, its cold waters and air create tourism potential.
