Zhinvali Water Reservoir

Our first stop will be at at Jinval Dam for photo taking. Jinvali Dam was made in 1970s in Soviet time for hydro electricy pover. The name of the Dam is coming from the city that was just before the dam. Now this city is under water and the tourists call it also underwater city. It was an old, antique time beautifull city with full of archeological sites and artefacts which are now under water. The local people were given the houses to live not far from the Dam. The level of the Dam rising in Summer in rainy season and reducing in Winter in dry Season. Only one fortress preserved from this city because it is located on higher place, on the hill.
