• Walk through the "Ural Bali"
Azure turquoise water and washed it white clay soil, are attracted to this romantic place tourists from all over the Urals. Here the Christmas tree needles mentally turns into a fan palm, the sun here seems warm warmer white clay here plays the role of the Indonesian crumbly sand. In fact, this place is one big extravaganza.
Seeing all this man-made beauty, head form a simple plain adjectives: fine, great, wonderful, even magical. The perfect place to make a unique love story photo shoot, which is used by Ural photographers, arriving here with his models.


The quarry is located in Kyshtym, about 100 kilometers from Chelyabinsk. For career I can be reached by car, however, per kilometer or less to the quarry there is a small obstacle in the form of a sand mound, but it is already unrolled.

After overcoming a few kilometers of dirt road, we see the purpose of our visit - azure turquoise water surface.

At first, the eyes do not believe what they see. A small corner of paradise hidden in the coniferous forest - how is this possible? But the picture is real.

It is said that in the summer there are very crowded. And in May we noticed on a career just something the two companies and a guy with a girl. Consider that it was empty.

The whole soil in the area is composed of kaolin - white clay, consisting of the mineral kaolinite. It turns out that in the Chelyabinsk region are the largest deposits of kaolin in Russia. Kaolin just plays the role of white tropical sand at this place.


The quarry across steep banks.

General view of the quarry with a cliff side. Beauty.

Panorama career with the bank. And do not even believe that this is a romantic place appears here as a result of technological developments.

and the shore you can find a variety of bizarre shapes kaolin figures.

And not only on the coast, and in the grove, too.

Nature adjust and fills the surrounding area extra nice scenery.







Only electric pole in the middle of the water reminds us that once there was dry and was mined kaolin.

And now the whole lowland flooded quarry.


Nepostanovochny frame, it is here and lay.

are advised not to swim in this water - close, sadly, is a dump and the groundwater fall into this pit.
I found yet such information that the white clay is composed of fine crystals with a silicon content. According to some scholars, the ionized silicon water acquires bactericidal, hemostatic properties, treats various inflammations.
So think for yourself, to swim or not. Local, by the way, in the summer do not get out of the water.





Naturally, this place is popular also for cooking kebabs. Just one of those caught us two companies came here to fry the meat.



Very close to this place there is a kaolin quarry, species of which are more like American Mojave desert.



These are great places to eat in the Chelyabinsk region!
