Colchic Rainforests and Wetlands2021
UNESCO World Heritage
Amazing view of the relict peat bog of Imnati, where various species of sphagnum, characteristic of the tundra zone, thrive. Sphagnum helps control excess water and acts as flood protection against torrential rains. In addition, it absorbs large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and responds to climate pollution.
