The village of Hryhorivka is located 20 kilometers southeast of Chaplynka, not far from Askaniia-Nova.
To the south of the village is the coast of the eastern part of the salty lake Sivash. Near the shore is Lemurian Lake, which was formed in the 1960s in a crater at the site of a powerful explosion from the fall of a crashed bomber. The salt-saturated waters of the lake are considered therapeutic.
Село Григорівка розташоване в 20 кілометрах на південний схід від Чаплинки, неподалік від Асканії-Нової.
На південь від села знаходиться узбережжя східної частини солоного озера Сиваш. Поруч з берегом розташоване Лемурійське озеро, яке утворилося в 1960-х роках в кратері на місці потужного вибуху від падіння бомбардувальника, який зазнав аварії. Насичені сіллю води озера вважаються лікувальними.
Lemurian Lake (Pink Lake)
Natural object
The reservoir on the northern shore of Sivash near Hryhorivka is called the Lemurian lake or simply "salt pit".
According to local legend, the salt lake is a submerged sinkhole at the site of a bomber that crashed in the 1960s. According to another legend, these are the remains of the legendary Lemurian Sea, which allegedly existed millions of years ago.
The water in the lake has an unusual pink color and is rapa - a saturated salt solution. Rapa is considered medicinal because it contains minerals, salts of magnesium and potassium chloride, sodium iodide, and magnesium bromide. Sivas mud is also used for treatment.
The shore of Lemurian Lake is equipped with showers with fresh water, gazebos for relaxation, and a children's playground.
