The lake was formed in 2004 on a surface mine, where limestone was exploited for the needs of the cement factory in Beocin, by cutting the aquifer that flooded the deepest parts of the mine. Over time, a lake with a diameter of 200 and a depth of about 15 meters was formed. Originally a mining mine from which marl ore was extracted, today it is an azure lake, bordered by white stone. Only a few steep approaches to the water remind us of the days when this lake was a real mountain hole. Lake Bešenovačko is stocked, and the locals use it, except for fishing, as a picnic area.

Palic Lake

You have probably noticed that not all the lakes that we have classified as the most beautiful in our country were created naturally, but by human hands. Natural lakes are less represented, and they are mostly found in Vojvodina and in the mountains. The most famous and largest natural lake in Serbia is Palićko. The lake is of Aeolian origin, created by the wind. According to one legend, it arose from the tears of the shepherd Paul who lost his flock. Another belief says that the lake represents the rest of the Pannonian Sea.

Jezero je nastalo u pradavna vremena kao izdansko iako voda jezera najvećim delom potiče od padavina koje su ispunjavale udolinu. Voda se slivala sa okolnog terena ispirajući natrijum hlorid i tako je jezero postalo slano.
The lake is up to 2 meters deep and due to the large number of algae, it is extremely green. Formed on the border of wood and sand, this saltwater lake got its name from the Palij wasteland. Soda was extracted from the lake in the 18th century, because the lake used to be salty, so it is believed that Palić is a remnant of the Pannonian Sea. According to the legend, the shepherd Pavle fed the cattle there.

Jezersko blato is healing, so in 1845 a bathroom was built and Palić became in 1852 thanks to Mayor Kujundžić and the spa. The place was the sports center of Hungary at the end of the 19th century; there was an athletic and bicycle playground. It was the work of prof. Ljudevita Vermeša. In the middle of the 19th century, a beautiful park was planted on the north coast.
Lake Palić was first mentioned in written documents in 1462 as Paly. The first drawing, or map of the lake (Paligo Palus) dates from 1690. It was known at the end of the 18th century that lake water and sludge have healing properties.
