Construction lasted for two centuries, and later, to be destroyed for the most part and be closed in 1969.
Saharna Dniester is the height. Two small rivulets, Stohnaia (6 km) and Saharna (10 km), crosses the eastern part of the plateau, forming a massive natural amphitheater. These small rivers in their lower course, created a lot of canyons, waterfalls and small lakes. Only Saharna River forms 22 waterfalls, the largest of which is the last bend of the river to the east. The highest waterfall, which is called the "Hole Gypsy" has a height of 4.5 m and a depth of 10 m. Throughout history these places have always been populated.
