Baikal Lake, Russia
Far away from western civilization, Baikal Lake is situated in the magic land of Siberia. It takes a long time to get there but it would be unforgivable to travel that far without seeing more than big Irkutsk. Listvyanka, Bolshie Koti and specially Olkhon island are some of the places worth visiting nearby. Welcome to the beauty of a UNESCO World Heritage region. Back to album »
