RU-P8

A view on the froozen Irkut River (Russian: Иркут and Buryat: Эрхүү гол) inTunkinsky National Park, Buryat Republic of Russian Federation. The Irkut River freezes up from late October until mid November and it will stay icebound until late April or early May. Sayan Mountain (Саяны, Sayany) can be seen at the background. Thanks Anasty.

















Four stamps were used on this postcard. They are 8p 2003 Europa poster art stamp, 6p Solovetsky Light House, 3p Solovetsky and a 2p lynx stamp. The meter cancellation on the postcard is too light to see where and when it was sent out.
