LACUL MORII

This accumulation lake serves as a dam preventing Dambovita river to flood Bucharest. It was built during the communist regime, but the 1989 revolution stopped the modernization works here. 

Due to the controversy surrounding this lake (it was built on top of an old church and cemetery) the work never resumed, therefore the derelict state of what was supposed to be a luxuriant park.

In the middle of the lake there is a small island overgrown with weeds
The neo-classical columns, the wharf, a fountain and a stone gazebo still stand.
