Oasa Lake - Transylvania, Romania Royalty-Free Stock Photo

The Oasa Reservoir is an artificial lake created by damming the Sebes River, containing an impressive 136 million cubic meters of water in a body that covers 460 hectares, which makes it by far the largest of the reservoirs built on the Sebes River. For over thirty years now, the water accumulated in the lake has been used to power the underground power plant at Galceag, with a capacity of 150 MW. The Oasa Reservoir is one of the tourist attractions encountered when driving over the famous Transalpina road between the towns of Sebes and Novaci.
