russpsych > albums > My favorite Landscapes

Album Info:

National park & reserve Samarskaya Luka was founded in 1985. It is located in a bend of Volga on a site of Tolyatti-Samara - Syzran which has formed as a result of a deviation of current of Volga river by mountains Zhigulis. Zhiguli Hills, which are 375 m high, stretch out 75 km along the right bank of the Volga. The Zhiguli reserve and national park Samara Bend are called the Volga Switzerland. The unique natural memorial keeps a lot of species of relic plants and animals of preglacial epoch. There are large reserves of crystal clear water in karst cavities. Tourists in Zhiguli can travel on foot or by horse, visit the mountain galleries full of mystery, and come to know the culture of small nations of the region. A lot of anomalous phenomena of the Zhiguli Hills attract much attention. From time to time big luminescent green spheres appear in the sky. Some people associate this with unidentified flying objects, the same as the famous Zhiguli mirages - images of ancient towns, temples and fortresses.
