A stunning wedding story on Salda Lake

19 September 2020Bodrum, Turkey

Salda Lake is a natural reservoir formed in the crater of an extinct volcano. The surrounding area stands out for its unusual landscape and is considered a natural landmark of the country.At first glance, the shores of the lake seem to be strewn with sand. In fact, the "framing" is formed by hydromagnesite. It is a sedimentary rock formed from volcanic magma and creates the illusion of a sandy coastline. Hydromagnesite is also contained in the water itself, which due to this has a turquoise hue, reminiscent of the color of sea waves. For such a picturesque view, the inhabitants of the country nicknamed the area "Turkish Maldives".
