The legend of the five lakes
Linevo Lake is part of a system of five lakes that are very close to each other, on the border territory of the Omsk, Muromtsevo and Kyshtovsky districts of the Novosibirsk Region. According to legend, these lakes formed from a meteorite. It is believed that the water in these reservoirs has healing power. To do this, you need to swim in a certain sequence in all five lakes. This system of lakes includes Shaitan Lake, Linevo, Urmannoe, Danilovo Lake and Potenoe. Shaitan Lake is located near the mysterious village of Okunevo (a few words will be said below). This pond is surrounded by swamps, and getting to it is not so easy. It is believed that the road opens only to the elite. But you can use the services of local guides. The water in the lake is considered "dead", so even the locals do not dare to swim in it. They say that the apparent transparency of the water is very deceiving, and the lake has a double bottom.
According to another legend, under the bottom of the lake stands the temple of the monkey god - Hanuman. In Kashtyrsky district is Lake Urmannoe, the water in which is also considered healing. Danilovo Lake is located near Urmanny. The reservoir has an elongated shape. The length of the lake is about eight hundred meters, and the width is five hundred. The depth reaches sixteen meters. It is believed that this water contains a large amount of silver, however, as in the other four lakes. Therefore, such a vodice is able to save the suffering from any ailments, and it does not deteriorate in closed vessels for many years. The lurking lake is the most mysterious of all five. The fact is that no one has been able to detect him yet. According to legend, it is located somewhere among the marshes, on the right bank of the Tara River. Well, the fifth body of water is Lake Linevo. It will be discussed in this article.
