There is a beautiful place on the lake where Angara (according to the legend) escapes from her father – Baikal and runs to her lover – Enisey. There is an glorious and wonderful place that called Listvyanka. Listvyanka was established in 1701-1725. This village was settled very promptly by the fishermans,hunters, tradespeople, cossacks. Trade way crossed this village because it  was the shortest way t the East. The population of Listvyanka was increased because of the development of stream navigation.

All scientists began their researchments from this  place.

Now Listvyanka is the place where tourists go to see the beauty of the lake.
