We were lucky this time -  bloomed other species of orchids and Lilium.

Orchis militaris


Lilium martagon




 Dactylorhiza hebridensis = Dactylorhiza meyeri


Calypso bulbosa - Unfortunately, we could not find a flowering plant

Krugobaikalka  - circle - absolutely other flora, steppe slopes, dry rocks blown by winds, and plants absolutely others... In the spring, right after snow thawing slopes are carpeted Pulsatilla. On different sources here grows from 2 to 4х species Pulsatilla
But also pincers here much more, than in other places :(

But Krugobaikalka is also a museum open-air - a railroad museum with tunnels, galleries and bridges.
Construction of the road was conducted from 1896 to 1900, and for last century of a plant all quite mastered constructed by people.

There is always a price to pay for these beautiful places - biting insects are usually the first !

Greetings, LamNa - it has been worth the wait for your first post  ;) :)

I really love Pyrola -  your closeup photo and the lovely natural "rock" garden  with  Pyrola asarifolia making its home are a delight.
