Artwork on Frozen Greek Lake

Even though the weather calms down in most parts of Greece and there is no more snowfall, cold still remains. Especially in northern Greece, temperature dropped below zero. As a result, cold is keeping a lot of people inside their homes, but also creates beautiful pieces of ice that are considered to be art by many. For example, near the frozen lake of Kastoria, the icy colors have combined with snow, creating a majestic landscape. Residents are admiring the art created by nature and share their photos on social media. The lake and surrounding area is a rich ecosystem, hosting more than 200 bird species. The lake is also very rich in fish and is considered the second lake in Greece, in regards to the quantity of fish species. Many people arrive in the area every year to fish for carp, pike, sheatfish, tench, bass or roach. (Photos by fouit.gr)
