The ancient fortress on an island in Siberia

Deep within the Siberia there is a lake which is just one among thousands of others. In the center of that lake there is a small island. On that island people excavated the remains of an ancient fortress, which dates from 1500. A lot more excavations need to be done so that the Fortress can become a tourist attraction, but still, from the air, it's beautiful at any time of the year. The first set of pictures was taken during the short Siberian summer:

The following pictures are from April. In Siberia, during April there is still plenty of snow, but you can see the ice melting:

This is an amazing discovery. I am looking forward to further excavations and new knowledge that can be found in this place. It will be a very worthy tourist attraction if we are fortunate.
