I am
very sorry! Of course it is VISAGINAS (former city of Snieckus)!!! Snieckus was
built during the Soviet occupation and named after a Lithuanian communist. After
1990 the Lithuanian authorities renamed it after a nearby village. It was some
discussions since both the city and the village now both are
"Visaginas".
[How
could I do that mistake....?!?!!]
Jan
Is this Ignalina? According to my maps
that city is about 40 km from
this lake. The lake is near
Visaginas.
But maybe my maps are wrong. Can you confirm once
more?
