Dome_village_Seliger
The dome of the Epiphany Cathedral on the territory of the monastery - Nilova Pustyn, on Stolobny Island. Tver region. Russia.
From the observation deck of the bell tower there is a beautiful view of the village and Lake Seliger.
The lake is of glacial origin, located in a depression between the moraine ridges remaining from the last Valdai glaciation. The glacial origin of the lake explains its peculiar shape - it is not a single body of water, but a chain of lakes stretching from north to south for 100 km and interconnected by short narrow channels. The Seliger lake system includes 24 stretches and lakes, interconnected by short straits-intercurrents and long straits-rivers.
The coastline of the lake is more than 500 km long and is significantly indented. The shores are low, sandy in places, there are many natural beaches. There are also many steep banks, overgrown with pine and spruce.
