Baikal

Baikal, nestled in the heart of Siberia, is enveloped by endless taiga and the vast mirror of the world’s deepest lake. Filmmakers adore its dramatic cliffs, translucent waters, and the whisper of ancient legends—an ideal canvas for historical epics, fantasy adventures, or even icy thrillers. Interesting fact: local Buryat folklore claims that Lake Baikal’s soul lives in its pure depths, adding an ethereal mystique to every shoreline shot.
