AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Contributor FlyONE created this stunning drone video of the Van Fortress, a massive fortification just east of Turkey's Lake Van in its Eastern Anatolian region. The fortress was built during the 9th-7th centuries BC by the Urartu kingdom, an ancient kingdom which sprung up in the area around Lake Van. The Urartu kingdom went into decline and was conquered by Persia, following which it became part of the kingdom of Armenia. The fortress continued to be used by successive occupiers of the region.
