Russia - Pearl of Siberia - Lake Baikal

We visited Lake Baikal on 29 May 2018. It was a clear day.
Lake Baikal, also called The Pearl of Siberia, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. This fresh water lake is the deepest and oldest lake in the world, having been in existence for more than 25 million years (Source: Wikipedia). 


We made our way from Irkutsk city and drove 70km southeast towards the small village of Listvyanka.
