Maldives of Turkey Lake Salda
Lake Salda is a natural lake in Burdur province in Turkey. It is one of the deepest lakes in the country and is famous for its turquoise, clear water and white sand beaches. In addition, the mountains and forests around the lake are a wonderful sight for nature lovers.
The turquoise colour of Lake Salda is due to the high mineral content of the water. The lake contains minerals such as magnesium, sodium and calcium. Therefore, the lake's water is beneficial for both beauty and health. Since the properties of the lake water are similar to the properties of the lakes on the planet Mars, scientists use the lake as a testing ground for the exploration of life on Mars.
Lake Salda is also a nature reserve and has many important ecological features such as rare plant species, rare birds and animals. Therefore, the lake's surroundings are protected and visitors are expected to behave in an environmentally conscious manner.
At Salda Lake, one can engage in activities such as swimming, camping, hiking and cycling. However, it is important that visitors behave in a way that does not harm the natural beauty and ecology of the lake.
