Caucasus: Valley of Mineral Springs







Yesterday we went to the valley of mineral springs, locally called ‘Dolina Narzanov’. It is not far from my home, only 60 km.

The road, which is also very good


for racing with cute turns,




passes along the green hills,

at the level of alpine meadows



In August green brightness is fading.
  

Nevertheless, wild flowers are everywhere…


along the creeks
  

along the road,
 and on the meadows themselves



thyme



marjoram

Our destination was the river Hasaut
  


With the purest live water





 Along the banks  dozens of mineral water springs are coming out






All the springs have their wonderful


Unique taste


Some of them are sizzling



like champagne


Some of them are quiet…
Even my Spanish dog enjoyed the water


All the springs are flowing into the river

On the way back I noticed a wild apple tree with tiny apples.


We stopped to taste apples: sour but nice




Life is so beautiful and tasty!
