Russia | Lake Baikal must go to Olihong Island Many people do not know much about Baikal so the schedule can not go to Olihong Island I want to say that if you choose Baikal Lake then must go to Olihong Island no matter when you are past it will give you a different original view from Irkutsk-Olympus Island 3 More than three hundred kilometers about 4-6 hours in the middle of the port to transfer to the ferry or hovercraft to the island best season I think it is autumn September and winter 2-3 months Autumn you can see a large block of golden forest winter, the entire Baikal has been frozen can see the unique Baikal blue ice traffic tips: can be from the urban area Bus terminal / bus or let the city hotel's front desk help to book (usually come to the hotel door) fare in the 800-1200 rubles / person including the ferry money but The cost of riding a hovercraft in winter is self-care hovercraft 350-45-rouble/person Safety reminder: During the winter icing period, everyone thousand Don't walk over the ice yourself because this is a very dangerous behavior!

The car gradually moved away from the quiet village of Huger and jumped over the vast grasslands again. It is an incredibly quiet and peaceful land. The wilderness of the sky, the pure sky, here is the lonely time and space of the Buryat. The ice on the far side of the lake merges with the sky. The blurred boundary line can only be distinguished by the distant mountains. Everything is silently shrouded by the mysterious blue. We are between the heavens and the earth, like a silent time break in the air.

Olihong Island, I suddenly think of the scene of deep rain and the end of the film: I want to be with you, and spend the stars with you for a few days... Here, you will only think about it I really want to be with me, let's watch the sunset together. Sunset is infinitely good, just near dusk. Yes! But I can keep this dusk all the time. I can open my eyes every day and see the beautiful scenery of this sunset. Come to me, I can help you keep every good moment. Sparkling lake, boating alone, if there is a close person next to it is perfect. The sunset is printed on the lake like gold covered with gold everywhere. The movement of the human heart, the material makes it happen. Sunset, heartbroken people in the horizon.

Siberia has always heard "a cold current from Siberia" in the weather forecast. This time I decided to come and experience it myself. The biggest one on the island is "Nikita", which originated from the boss's name, and the boss himself is a member of the former Russian table tennis national team. He opened a table tennis school in the local area, and the income of the house is used to subsidize school expenses. The material conditions on the island are really scarce, and there are not many foods. Basically, there are money and flowers. But the beautiful blue ice and the clear air are still fascinating.

The island is also worth a visit. If you are used to it in a big city, you will feel extremely quiet there. Most people are Mongolian, and they dont feel the coldness of the old Maozi. Many people do not have hardened roads, and it will be muddy when it rains. I think it is a mentality problem. There are sand land there. There is really no cement road, but it is not difficult to go. I personally like it there, even if I dont go to the south line. Northern line visit

Blue eyes located south of Eastern Siberia, with visibility of 40.5 meters, the lake is as transparent as a mirror. Even in the frozen period, you can see frozen sea creatures or beautiful plants through the ice. The best viewing period for winter is 2-3 months per year. Lake Baikal will form a unique bubble ice, blue ice and ice cracked landscape due to rising gas. The first time I saw this kind of blue ice cube, layer by layer, with a slight blue light, I just wanted to take a bite. blue ice is pure ice in the form of large single ice crystals. The purer the ice, the more blue the color. (Blue ice in nature, generally the lower the salt content, the more blue). It is very cold in winter, and the formed ice is increasingly dense and hard, and the internal air is squeezed out, and the pores in the space are constantly shrinking and disappearing, and slowly become crystal clear. The ice cubes show a crystal-like blue color, which is the same reason that the sky and the sea are blue. The blue ice on the shore is a blocky shape, which is formed by the continuous slap of the waves. It is very novel to see this natural landscape for the first time. This blue feast is like being into the ice age of cartoons.

Bubble ice can be seen throughout the lake. Some are dense, some are scattered, some are small, some are spectacular, and each is different. Later, we saw on other people's mobile phones that they had taken more photos than we saw, so look at the bubble ice not to be limited to one place. You can look around and the bubble ice is a surprise every place. Our luck is very good, the whole lake is not covered by snow, if you encounter snow cover, you need to bring hot water to open the snow to see. Freezing bubbles are formed by the methane released by the bottom plants in the process of freezing near the lake. The bubbles are iced on the ice. The scenes of looking for unique bubble ice are still vivid. I hope that I will always be like that. Stay curious and stay in love. It's slippery on the ice, but if you wear the crampons, it will destroy the ice, so be careful when you walk.

After three days and three nights in Huer's village, I caught up with the sunset on the first day, went to the northern line the next day, and went to the south line on the third day. The north line and the south line have different beauty. There are blue ice on the north line, ice caves, face-faced mountains and forests. Departure from the northern line, basically a day trip, there is no place for lunch on the road, and there are basically no people living there in this season. There is a supermarket in Huger Village, where there are many snacks to choose from. We bought some dry food and water and set off. The icicles in the cave are amazing. When you walk in and see, you will find that there is a scene, light blue, light green color is not like the words, you have to use the camera to record this beautiful Meet. In addition to the icicles in those caves, there is a lot of blue ice here, and at first glance, the girl's heart is flooding.

The French explorer Sylvan Tyson once lived in a Siberian cabin in the northern foothills of Lake Baikal, not too far from Orihong Island. He brought books, cigars and vodka, facing Baqal every day. Lake, staring in a daze. Later, he wrote his six-month story as "In the Siberian Forest" and expressed his feeling that he likes Russia most. "This country sends satellites to the sky and the other side is still using stones to drive the wolves. ". The village of Huger, which is almost entirely made up of wooden houses, certainly has no original place to let you drive the wolves with stones, but when we get on and off the island, we are just sloppy and somewhat overbearing. The cow and a few picky dogs. The Huger Village, with a population of more than 1,000, is vast, and the roads in the village are as wide as the twelve lanes, but all are dirt roads. It is said that the village was not powered until after the cable was laid in 2007. There was no TV in the warm house of Huger Village. In addition to walking on the ice, hiking in the snow in the forest, or There is not much entertainment other than watching the stars on the shore with the dog. You can feed the cattle that are strolling around the island, or help the landlord to chop firewood where you can do a woodworking job that is more popular than the stock market and entrepreneurial financing. Humanity is the son of nature, returning to the truth, getting rid of the shackles of modern society and those electronic products, thinking about your life in the vast mountains and lakes that truly integrate into the embrace of nature, how can you not yearn for people? ?
