Russia: Lake Baikal

Lake Baikal is the world's deepest and oldest freshwater lake. It curves for nearly 400 miles through south-eastern Siberia, north of the Mongolian border.

More than 5000 feet deep at its most profound, with another four mile thick layer of sediment further down, the lake's cold, oxygen-rich waters teem with bizarre life-forms.
