Wings of Tatev ((アルメニア語:Տաթևի թևեր) ''Tatevi tever'') is a cableway between Halidzor and the Tatev monastery in Armenia. It is the longest reversible aerial tramway built in only one section, and holds the record for ''Longest non-stop double track cable car.''〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/records-8000/longest-non-stop-double-track-cable-car/ )〕 Construction was finished on 16 October 2010. Gathered in the country's southern mountains near the border with Iran, guests including president Serzh Sarkisian and the head of the Armenian Apostolic Church, Karekin II, took part as the cable car link launched its first official voyage over the Vorotan River Gorge. The link allows year-round access to Armenia's 9th-century Tatev monastery complex, one of the country's most important religious centres and a major tourist attraction. The reversible cable car line cost $18 million with much of the funding coming from private donations, according to the National Competitiveness Foundation of Armenia, which oversaw the project. It runs from the village of Halidzor near a highway connecting the Armenian capital Yerevan to the village of Tatev, within walking distance of the monastery. The cable car travels at a speed of per hour and a one-way journey takes 10 minutes. At its highest point over the gorge, the car travels above ground level. It has two cabins, each capable of carrying up to 25 passengers. Local residents from 9 surrounding villages will be able to ride the cable car for 500 Armenian drams ($1.20) one-way and 1000 Armenian drams ($2.40) round-trip, while others will have to pay 4,000 Armenian drams ($9.80) for round-trip ticket and 3,000 Armenian drams ($7.30) for one-way ticket. On 23 October 2010 it was officially recorded by Guinness World Records as the world's longest non-stop double track cable car. ==Gallery== File:Wings of Tatev Tram.jpg|The tram File:Wings of Tatev View.jpg|View from the tram 2014 Prowincja Sjunik, Skrzydła Tatewu (03).jpg|Road to the main buildings and loweer station in Halidzor 2014 Prowincja Sjunik, Skrzydła Tatewu (06).jpg|Main building (administration, restaurant, ticket office) File:2014 Prowincja Sjunik, Skrzydła Tatewu (02).jpg|Lower station "Halidzor" File:2014 Prowincja Sjunik, Skrzydła Tatewu (10).jpg|Upper station "Tatev" File:Wings of Tatev billboard.jpg|A billboard advertising the tramway near Goris 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wings of Tatev」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
