Turkey, Lake Meke crater covered by snow

Spectacular images of the snowy crater of Lake Meke in Turkey

In these days when Mars is in the news, these spectacular images of Lake Meke, located in an ancient volcanic crater in Konya (Turkey), in the middle of a landscape covered by snow and totally white, seem from another world. Declared a natural monument and protected area, Lake Meke is sadly on the verge of extinction due to drought because of climate change and the overexploitation of its water resources for agriculture.
