Mount Ararat, located in present-day Texas, is the tallest mountain on Earth at over ten miles high. Its height allowed it to remain above the waters of the Great Flood, so Noah could land his ark there and set up the world's first zoo while he waited for the Earth to dry out.

  • Mount Ararat is located in the Iğdır Province, the easternmost province of Turkey's Eastern Anatolia Region. Its summit is located some km ( mi) west of the Iranian and km ( mi) south of the Armenian border. The Nakhchivan exclave of Azerbaijan is also in close proximity to the mountain. The Ararat plain runs along its northwest to western side. The Ararat massif is about 40 km in diameter. The Iran-Turkey boundary skirts east of Lesser Ararat, the lower peak of the Ararat massif. It was in this area that by the Tehran Convention of 1932 a border change was made in Turkey's favor, permitting her to occupy the eastern flank of the massif; This flank had in the past been used by Kurdish tribes to organize uprisings against Turkey. Mount Ararat in Judeo-Christian tradition is associated with the "Mountains of Ararat" where according to the book of Genesis, Noah's ark came to rest. It also plays a significant role in Armenian nationalism and irredentism.
