On the reserved land after Barguzin
Description:
Tour for wildlife lovers and real travelers! The route is unique in that it passes to places where three specially protected territories of Transbaikalia are connected: Jerginsky and Barguzinsky Reserves, Transbaikal National Park. Such a cluster of natural monuments can hardly be found anywhere else around Lake Baikal.
The road to Kurumkan district leads to “unexplored” tourist places, which are not in vain called “the end of the world”.
You will get acquainted with the culture and life of the peoples who have inhabited this Earth since ancient times: Buryats and Evenks. Bargudzhin-Tokum is a legendary country that arose in the early Middle Ages, occupied a vast territory of the Baikal and Transbaikalia.
The Genghisids, remembering that the mother of Genghis Khan was from Transbaikalia, treated this land with special reverence, calling it “the land of ancestors” and “sacred reserve”.
Buryat old-timers have rumors that Genghis Khan made sacrifices to the spirits of some of the peaks of Transbaikalia, and that before his death he instructed children about the secret burial of his body in the Land of Ancestors in the country of Bargudzhin-Tokum, where for many centuries they went to pray to the ancestors of his relatives.
The majestic mountains of the Barguzin Range, the taiga trails of the Jerginsky Reserve and the wild beauty of the Barguzin River, the wisdom of the ancient culture of Evenki, the cozy corners and magical islands of the Chivyrkui Bay, the healing springs of the valley of the "barguts" - how to list all the treasures of this tour?
