The Tsimlyansk Sea, as the locals proudly call the reservoir, was artificially created in 1952, during the construction of a hydroelectric power station. Even before it was filled with water, there were many disputes due to the fact that historical monuments fell into the flood zone, such as the Sarkel fortress, which belonged to the Khazars in ancient times, and several Cossack villages and farms that were historically associated with Pugachev and Razin.
In addition to historians, biologists were also worried, and, apparently, not in vain: after the creation of the reservoir, the hydrological background of the Sea of Azov deteriorated sharply.
On the territory occupied by the Tsimlyansk reservoir, there are well-known reserves and reserves, the largest of which are Rostovsky and Tsimlyansky. The employees of these reserves are actively engaged in environmental and scientific activities. Large-scale work is being carried out to protect the soil, the state of rare flora and fauna is being studied. It is safe to say that the Tsimlyansk reservoir is not onlya powerful symbol of human capabilities, but also an example of a rash and hasty decision that has negative consequences for nature.
Unique healing air, picturesque colorful places, favorable climate –
all this is the Tsimlyansk reservoir. Rest on its shores is loved not only by local residents, but also by guests from other regions of our country. On this territory there is a magnificent park created by man - "Tsimlyansky Sands". All conditions for a wonderful holiday are created here.
Carp, crucian carp, bream, zander - this is not a complete list of fish species that are rich in the Tsimlyansk reservoir. The fishing here is amazing. It is unlikely that there will be such an angler who will be dissatisfied with the bite or the catch. No one returns from here empty-handed. Hunters will also find something to their liking here. Wild boar, hare, fox, feathered inhabitants of the park are possible prey for a successful hunter. The game in these places is varied. Wild boars, elks, and deer feel full and at ease in Tsimlyansk Sands. There are many rare birds here, which have long been protected by the state.
"Tsimlyansky Sands" - a park created in 2003 to preserve
a huge array of sands, the age of which corresponds to the Moscow and Dnieper glaciations. This sandy massif, unique in all respects, is an amazing formation of nature. The total area of the park exceeds seventy thousand hectares. The bays of the reservoir are a spawning ground for various fish species, includingincluding valuable ones that are protected by law and the state. This area is sparsely populated.
The Tsimlyansk Reservoir is famous for its deciduous forests, complemented by artificial pine plantations. In 2006, scientists and students of Volgograd University discovered several natural lakes in this area. The results of the study of water from these reservoirs showed an increased content of ordinary edible s alt.
The special pride of the park is the herd of mustangs - feral horses who have found a well-fed and calm life here. These proud and freedom-loving animals amaze with their beauty.
