Lake Seliger in Russia is one of the country's greatest
natural wonders . The starting point for Seliger is the village of Ostaszków. It is not a very nice place for Poles, because there was a camp for
Polish prisoners of war established by the NKVD. Apart from this bloody piece of history, this is a place with beautiful lakeside dachas and churches of exceptional beauty from the 15th and 16th centuries. Many tourists compare the lake itself to
Lake Baikal , for its species diversity and beauty. this is obviously a gross exaggeration, which does not change the fact that it is worth visiting. [caption id = "attachment_86897" align = "alignleft" width = "500"]
