Balandinsky marble quarry
Not only nature, but also man is able to create something capable of striking the imagination. One of the places close to Chelyabinsk is the Balandinsk marble quarries.
Now some of them are filled with water, which in winter is covered with a transparent layer of ice, which against the background of massive marble boulders creates a very interesting landscape.

Каолиновый карьер
The next most famous place in the Chelyabinsk region is, without a doubt, the Kaolin Quarry, which is popularly referred to as the "Ural Bali". In winter, this place is covered with a layer of ice of a bluish hue, which in itself looks incredible.

There is nothing more beautiful than completing a day trip on the shores of Lake Allaki, walking among the most bizarrely shaped stone blocks.
And from the top of a small hill one can perfectly see the opposite shore of the lake and enjoy a marvellous scenery.
