Question: Do people in different towns or cities of the UK have nicknames? Answer:
Yes, they do. For example, Londoners born within the sound of Bow
Bells are called 'Cockneys'. (Bow Bells are the bells of St Mary Le
Bow in Cheapside in the City of London). A person who lives in
Tyneside (north east England) is called a "Geordie'. The Beatles came
from Liverpool, so they were 'Scouses'. And so on.
Question: What is GMT?
Answer: Greenwich, in London, is where you will find the Prime Meridian.
It's the line that divides the Earth into East and West and from

term used for the current time on this line. It is used as the basis
for standard time in most countries of the world. перевод

1. I will start with all the known facts: Baikal is the deepest lake (in fact — fresh sea) in the world, Baikal contains as much as almost a quarter of the world's reserves of pure water, you can see the bottom at a depth of several tens of meters. Baikal is a real pearl of Siberia and a unique place for many reasons. Further will talk about those that I know.

3. Lake Baikal is astounding in its diversity of landscapes. Few people imagine that Baikal is not only an endless blue expanse of water and dense taiga with bears around, but also mountain rivers with waterfalls and hot springs, where you can swim even in winter, the Tazheran steppes, like lunar landscapes, and even real sandy beaches are not inferior in beauty and white sand to the world's most famous resorts.

If you do not limit yourself to Baikal — you can see the snowy peaks of the Siberian mountains — Sayan, going for a couple of days in Arshan.

To find all this diversity, it is enough to know where to go and have the appropriate opportunities. This is what I plan to tell in your блоге8)

4. For me personally, the most stunning and unlike Baikal is in winter, when it is covered with a thick layer of transparent ice, through which you can see the bottom and the whole Baikal turns into a real natural ice rink of giant size. Ice appears on lake Baikal by January, but the best time to admire it at the end of February-the beginning of March, when there is no such severe cold. Ice on lake Baikal – another beautiful time, for this you need to come in March—April.

5. Another winter miracle on lake Baikal is the place of the source of the Angara river from lake Baikal in Listvyanka. As I said, in winter Baikal covers a multi-meter layer of ice, but the Hangar does not freeze even in the harshest winters.

So, when the frosts come and Baikal is covered with ice, the place of transition of Baikal to the Hangar can be seen with the naked eye. Where Baikal-thick ice,and where the Hangar-open water and then even in the cold winter ducks.

The place of the source of the Angara from Baikal is easy to see in winter and summer, it is marked by a shaman-a stone, which according to legend, Baikal in the hearts threw in the Wake of the Angara running away to the Yenisei.

Well, as the legends say, the end of the world will come exactly when the shaman-stone will disappear for some reason.

I dreamed about a trip to Baikal a long time ago, and finally, this summer my dream came true. But, alas, I was disappointed in this "sea".

Before the train I had to spend 4 days in Irkutsk. Nothing much to say. Insanely boring provincial town.
