Lake Beleu, one of the largest natural lakes in the country, risks disappearing swallowed by the mud. If now it fascinates you with its beauty, in dry summers it turns into a puddle in the middle of an arid land. The lake, which is part of the Lower Prutul de Jos scientific reserve, dries up from one year to the next. The representatives of the protected area are trying their best to find solutions, but so far without success.

"One of the natural wonders of the Republic of Moldova, the Lower Prut Nature Reserve is a true paradise for diverse bird, fish and plant species, protecting the area surrounding Lake Beleu and the Prut River.
Located in the south of the country, this biosphere reserve encompasses the Prut River and floodplain lakes. Two-thirds of the surface of the area is occupied by Lake Beleu. A wetland area extends along the Prut River, covering a mosaic of water, meadow and forest ecosystems. The main economic activity is agriculture, which provides 90% of the inhabitant’s income."
