Zashchitnaya Bay

Zashchitnaya Bay is the northernmost part of Vyborg Bay. It is located adjacent to the city of Vyborg, Leningrad Oblast, Russia. Vyborg Bay is part of the Gulf of Finland in the Baltic Sea. The Castle of Vyborg and the Monrepos Park face Zashchitnaya Bay. The old Saimaa Canal, as well as the new one, connect Zashchitnaya Bay with Lake Saimaa in Finland.

Etymology
The Russian name of the bay is derived from the Russian word for defense and may be translated as "shielding". ==History==
History
In the Middle Ages, the river Vuoksa had an outlet in Suomenvedenpohja, which however dried up little by little due to post-glacial rebound and was left completely dry in 1857 when the Kiviniemi rapids in Losevo (, ) were formed and the Burnaya River (, ) became the main outlet of Vuoksa. ==Gallery==
