Irkutsk oblast

Ryssland

It's a place with the cleanest air and transparent water. The nature around the lake Baikal is so different but the most amazing view you can get is from the boat.

This is the money shot for Lake Baikal, a huge huge lake in Siberia. For me it was an adventure to go by train from Ulaanbaatar to Irkutsk then on up to Olkhon Island, the spiritual home of an ethnic tribe very similar to Mongolian nomads - the Buryat. This island had special spiritual meaning. #Adventure
When the water meets the ice, Angara River & Lake Baikal.
I didn’t expect Siberia to be so lush. This village was around the shore of the huge expanse of Lake Baikal, which we explored by train. take the circum-Baikal train for a close up exploration of the landscape and villages. The train line is a feat in itself, being carved through rock about a hundred years ago. This is often inhospitable countryside for most of the year. Many of the small villages showed that life was tough and money was tight. Most buildings were quite broken-down.

Sacred shaman poles on Olkhon Island, called the heart of Lake Baikal. 
The Shaman Rock is one of the nine most holy places in Asia. 13 totem poles stand tall at the entrance, guarding the sacred rock, representing the 13 deities of Olkhon and bearing colorful ribbons, known as ‘Khadag’, placed by pilgrims. The five colors symbolize different aspects of the environment. Blue for the eternal sky, green for the earth, yellow for religion, red for fire, white for milk.
