Salt desert Crimea Bashny.Net

Despite a very difficult time and sharp current events, I will continue to show the incredibly beautiful and varied Crimea and will talk about the best parts of the peninsula.
Today in my little story will again be a place that is rarely visited by tourists - desert landscapes of East Crimea.
Although not in the Crimea as deserts and semi-natural areas, in these places is composed entirely different feeling.
However, these salt desert ...





Where did the Crimea these huge flat area stretching to the horizon and covered with a layer of salt?
All that dry up in the hot summer months fully or partially drying up salt lakes - Tobechikskoe, Koyashskoe, Chokrashskoe, Uzunlarskoye and other



But even if some of the lake and do not dry up until the end, the water level in them is so low that salt literally "climbs out of the water»



For example, in this picture with Koyashskogo lake, made in August, the water level is in some places only one centimeter.
And in the deepest place - 10 centimeters.



On the banks of these amazing salt lakes, deserts can be found amazing drawings by retreating under the pressure of the summer heat water



But gradually the salt blown by the winds, and the places that a month ago had a smooth white color, are covered with a dried cracked mud ...
A salt breeze blew for miles around, covering its surrounding steppe and field
