Country
Serbia's lakes are mostly made by rivers and dams, with a few natural surprises in the plains of the north.
On the Danube, the Iron Gates gorge, shared with Romania, holds a long lake behind the Đerdap dam, and Srebrno jezero, a former arm of the river, is a popular summer resort. The reservoirs of Perućac on the Drina, Zlatar in the south-west and Vlasina in the south-east draw swimmers and anglers.
