Yachen reservoir
ooh Yachenskaya Vodokachka, 2, Kaluga
Description:
Yachenskoe Reservoir (Kaluga Sea) is the largest artificial reservoir in the city, created in 1980. The area of the reservoir is 230 hectares.
Directly discharged wastewater from most urban storm collectors, so this reservoir is another intractable environmental problem of the city. You can not fish and swim on the pond, as it is dangerous to health.
There is an inexplicable phenomenon on the Kaluga Sea – one of its areas is known as the “Thunder of the Lord”. Accidents often occur in this area, and when lightning strikes this part, which gave rise to many rumors. However, the fact is that along the shore of the reservoir there is a high-voltage line, and its wires in places sag so low that they almost touch the water. Sometimes a high discharge environment is created on this site, which can hit vacationers.
