THE TRAGEDY OF THE ARAL SEA. MYINAK

Myinak, an Uzbek town, has become a symbol of the Aral Sea’s tragedy. 30 years ago Myinak was a prosperous port-town. Local people were proud with wonderful beaches and plenty of fish in the Sea. Today Myinak is located more than 100 km far from the Aral Sea. And perhaps the old harbor of Myinak (nowadays called “the graveyard of ships”) makes the grimmest impressions on visitors: rusty ships are standing in the sand with the flocks of goats roaming among them.
