Techirghiol Lake is one of the most famous lakes in Romania, very close to Constanța. The waters of Techirghiol are much saltier than the sea water, and on the bottom of the lake there is a special mud, with miraculous effects on health, curing rheumatic pains.

In 2000, the 🤬 basin was declared a Ramsar site - wetland of international importance. With this declaration, the Government is committed to preserve its natural resources and has taken several steps for protection of this wetland.

Tehran is a populated city with 10 million people. The city has a dense urban fabric and there are not that many natural water bodies in the city.
The water body I chose is Chitgar lake. It's an artificial lake in the west of Tehran.
This lake has several advantages and disadvantages from environmental and social points of view on the surrounding landscape.
The positive effects including increasing life quality, strengthening the region security, residential motivation, creating job opportunities during construction and after that. Attracting 32 species of migrating birds of which 10 species were observed for the first time in Tehran, creating clean and fresh air by increasing the humidity of the region are some of the environmental effects of lake construction. Some negative impacts are problems such as traffic jams in the area.
