#VisitRussia 🇷🇺 The largest salt lake in Europe and one of the largest in the world, Elton Lake is located in southern Russia, in Volgograd Oblast. “A huge silver mirror,“ as Alexandre Dumas fils described the lake, contains 1.5 times more beneficial substances in its mineral composition compared to the Dead Sea. ️ For centuries, Lake Elton has been a favorite destination for Russian rulers and nobility. There, you can still see the remains of the “bath“ of Empress Catherine II. Unfortunately, it is only 5-7 cm deep in summer, so it is not very suitable for swimming. Today, thousands of tourists visit the lake every year because of its healing properties. It is believed that the healing salty mud of Lake Elton, along with the salty air, can treat respiratory and digestive diseases, skin problems, and help the nervous system. One of the most beautiful lakes on the planet awaits you! Источник: DPR MFA
