Lake Atanasovsko

Okay, imagine there's a big pool of water called Lake Atanasovsko. This lake is located in Bulgaria near the city of Burgas. People go to the lake to see a bunch of different birds because they love setting up homes there.

The lake is famous because it's super salty. Did you ever go to the beach and accidentally get a mouthful of ocean water? That salty taste you felt is similar to what someone would taste if they drank water from Lake Atanasovsko.

Sometimes, it's important for people to get salt from the ocean and other naturally salty places. In the past, people used to come to this lake to get salt. They would scoop up the water and let it dry out in the sun, then collect the salt that was left behind.

Now, people come to look at the birds and enjoy the pretty view. So while it might be a super salty lake, people still love it!
