📍 Georgia
Zhinvali Reservoir spreads through the Aragvi valley near Aranisi, north of Tbilisi along the Georgian Military Highway. Created by the Zhinvali Dam, it is an important source of water and hydroelectric power for the capital, while its flooded valleys give the landscape a distinctive fjord-like form. From roadside overlooks, the reservoir appears as broad blue-green curves framed by wooded slopes and layered Caucasus foothills; changing water levels reveal pale banks and traces of the former valley. The nearby Ananuri fortress complex adds a historic landmark to the scene, its stone walls and churches rising above the reservoir’s southern shore.
