Khimki Reservoir, Reservoir in northern Moscow, Russia.

The Khimki Reservoir spans 9 square kilometers as part of the Moscow Canal system, connecting the Moskva River to the Skhodnya Derivation Canal.

The construction of Khimki Reservoir occurred between 1932 and 1937 during Soviet industrialization to improve Moscow's water management infrastructure.

Local residents gather at the reservoir throughout the seasons for fishing, boating activities, and community celebrations along the waterfront trails.

A 2000-step walking path circles the water body, offering visitors easy access to exercise facilities and recreational areas within Moscow's urban environment.

The reservoir functions as both a critical drinking water source for Moscow residents and a natural habitat for numerous fish species.

Location: Moscow
