My trip to Lake Baikal (May 6, 2018)

in #nature8 years ago (edited)

Hello Steemians!

In my previous post, I wrote that in the beginning of May, I went to the city of Irkutsk, Russia for a couple of days. Since, Lake Baikal is not far away from the city (just 50-60 km away), I decided to visit it. So, I travelled by bus from Irkutsk to Listvyanka. Listvyanka is a small city on the bank of Baikal.

Just to inform you, according to Wikipedia, Lake Baikal is the largest freshwater lake by volume in the world, containing 22–23% of the world's fresh surface water.

So, let me show you some pictures of Lake Baikal, that I took:

Congrats @cryptospa for your trip to lake Baykal and the nice pics shot by you.
What month did you visit it, it looks like it was not the high season, as it doesn't look crowded, or intentionally you might have skipped crowded pics?

@yanipetkov, I visited Lake Baikal in the begning of May. The tourists season starts in the begining of June.

I dont remember seeing such a beautifully blue pic for a long time now. Reference to the first one!

@yanipetkov, Lake Baikal is a wonderful place!

Какая восхитительная СИНЕВА!!! @cryptospa Благодаря твоему посту я наконец-таки первый раз в жизни использовал слова СИНЕВА для обозначения глубокого синего цвета, а не для обозначения злоупотребляющего алкоголем индивида))) Фотографии правда Классные. Озеро Байкал стооит особняком в списке мест, которые я планирую посетить в этой жизни)

@johnstone, озеро Байкал - уникальное место!
