Belarusian lake Narač as a heart

The biggest and most prominent lake of Belarus, Narač, strikingly closely resembles a heart.. and its winter photo resembles a broken heart.



It's no surprise that local folklore has very touching tales about this lake's origin - about a hero killing a dragon, and a heart-shaped lake signifying his love to the girl that he saved from the dragon.

This lake stays my favorite, and huge variety of Swiss lakes can never hope to reach this level.
