Lake Manicuagan
The lake is located on the Lawrence Hill in the central part of the province of Quebec, Canada.
Description:
Lake Manicuagan is known for its unusual shape in the form of a ring, making it one of the natural wonders of Canada. Also due to its peculiar appearance from space, Manicuagan has been called the "Eye of Quebec".
The lake was formed by a meteorite impact about 214 million years ago. Also as a result of the fall, the island of René Levasseur was formed in the center of the lake, the area of which exceeds the area of the lake and is more than 2000 square kilometers. In the 1960s, a series of dams were built, and the lake was used as a reservoir, so throughout the year its water level changes.
