The name "Borovoye" is derived from the word "pine forest", which means pine forest. Since there are a great many such natural zones, there are plenty of Borovoe objects on the geographic map of the Eastern Hemisphere. In Russia alone there are 25 of them. In addition, they are in Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan. So the people get confused about what kind of Borovoye they need to go there to relax, because not everywhere there are sanatoriums and rest houses. Adds confusion and the fact that, in addition to settlements, there are about two dozen lakes with the same name. In addition, in Belarus there is a sanatorium "Borovoye" (Vitebsk region), which has nothing to do with either the settlements of the same name or with reservoirs.
