Golubye Lakes, Protected natural lake system in Tatarstan, Russia.

The Golubye Lakes system consists of three separate bodies of water with blue-colored mud covering their bottoms, reaching depths between 3 to 18 meters.

The lakes area previously contained a cereal plant and water-powered mill operated by the Apanaev merchant family until industrial operations ceased in the 1950s.

The lakes system holds protected status as a natural monument of Russia, contributing to the preservation of regional geological features and ecological diversity.

Located near Kazan, the lakes maintain a constant water temperature between 4-6°C throughout the year and offer various outdoor activities including diving.

The lakes receive water exclusively from underground sources, creating clear waters that remain at consistent temperatures regardless of seasonal changes.
