Vanjärvi

Vanjärvi (turk. Van Gölü, arm. Վանա լիճ, kurdiksi Gola Wanê‎) on Turkin suurin järvi. Se sijaitsee maan itäosassa lähellä Iranin rajaa 1 646 metrin korkeudessa. Järvi on noin 120 kilometrin pituinen ja sen pinta-ala on noin 3 713 neliökilometriä. Suurin syvyys on noin 457 metriä ja tilavuus 607 kuutiokilometriä. Vanjärvi on laskujoeton suolajärvi. Veden suolapitoisuus on noin 2,2 % ja pH 9,8. Se ei ole juomakelpoista, koska siinä on booraksia.[1]

Vanjärvi syntyi, kun Nemrut Dağı -tulivuori purkautui ja laavavirta patosi seudun alangon läpi virtaavan joen. Vanjärven saarilla elää muun muassa riistalintuja, kahlaajia, isotrappeja, flamingoja, kapustahaikaroita, pelikaaneja, tuulihaukkoja sekä yöhaikaroita.[2]

Järven itärannalla sijaitsee Vanin maakunnan pääkaupunki Van. Vanin ja Tatvanin välillä liikennöi matkustajalautta.

Näkymä Akdamarin saarelta, jolla sijaitsee Pyhän ristin armenialainen kirkko

Järvellä on huomattava merkitys armenialaiselle kulttuurille. Muinoin se oli Urartun valtakunnan keskusaluetta. Akdamarin saarella sijaitseva vuosina 915–921 rakennettu Pyhän ristin armenialainen kirkko restauroitiin ja vihittiin taas käyttöön 2007. Järven lähettyviltä kerrotaan olevan kotoisin kissarotu turkkilainen van.
