Estil lagoon
This
lagoon is one of the nicest tourist attractions in Iran, located 7 km from
Astara near the Rasht to Astara road. Being close to the road, varied natural
beauty spots, lush farms and jungles all around, make this lagoon all the more
pleasant. The Western side of the lagoon is covered by trees and verdant
plants. On the Eastern side, floating trees have created a notable landscape
which becomes an outstanding retreat in Spring and Summer for travelers. One of
its most important aspects is existence of famous fishes like carp and “duck
fish” (Northern pike). It is also noted for rare species of birds which fly in
from Central Europe, from beyond the Caspian sea, and even from the polar
zones, to breed. Being located between the road and Espinas mountain, and
adjacent to an international hotel, make this marshy environment a relaxing
place for travelers and visitors to rest.
