Lakhtinsky Razliv

Lakhtinsky Razliv is a lake in the Primorsky District of St. Petersburg, located on the northern shore of the Neva Bay of the Gulf of Finland, which is called Konnunlahti in Finnish. The shores of the reservoir are low-lying and swampy, partially overgrown with reeds and bulrushes, and its bottom has a mosaic relief with depressions and elevations ranging from 0.5 to 5 meters in height. The Glukharka River, 1.798 km long, flows into the lake, and the movement of small vessels on it is prohibited. In 1924, the Lakhta Dam, over which the highway and the Primorskaya Railway passed, was damaged by a flood, but was restored already in 1925.
