Rest on Baikal, one of the main natural attractions of Russia, has always attracted not only domestic travelers, but also foreign wildlife lovers, stunning landscapes and ethnographic rarities. It is here that you can really feel what it means to be alone with the most mysterious reservoir of the planet. Whose origin is still covered with a veil of mystery

Rich flora and fauna, most of which endemic, and therefore live only within the lake, is protected by the World Heritage and the Baikal National Park in the Irkutsk region. Also of interest are the natural attractions of the Barguzin Nature Reserve in the North Baikal region, the Djerginsky reserve in Kurumkansky district and the Tunkinsky national park in the same area.

Lake Baikal and the adjacent territories have been considered sacred places since ancient times and have been covered with numerous legends. Today, it is unlikely that anyone will take the traditions of the Buryats seriously, but other explanations, except for irrational ones, are hard to find. One of the main questions is the age of the lake. He is at least 25 million years old, but the signs of aging are still not observed.
