Five minutes to 300
300 years ahead. perm Great. In this regard, the region is rapidly changing.
The region is the border between Europe and Asia, thus being considered one of the most economically important in the country.
The stele will be the first attraction that will meet guests of the Sverdlovsk region.
Well, then, "who is in what gorad" is about the cities of the Perm Territory.
For example, Kungur will hospitably welcome you with delicious tea from beautifully painted samovars, and all because this city is considered the “Tea Capital of Russia”, as for samovars, then you will come to Suksun to the homeland of samovars.
The northeast of the region is a real natural pride, it is here that two specially protected reserves are located: the Visher Reserve and the Basegi Reserve, where you can enjoy all the beauty of the Urals.
For lovers of winter sports Chusova and Gubakh organizes "Happiness in the mountains".
Summer is a time of fishing, hunting, collecting mushrooms and berries, hiking, alloying. Most popular weekend tours, where for 2-3 days you are not only organized rafting, but also an animation program.
The nature of the local places is so attractive that recently a lot of films have been shot on the Perm land, including the Soviet film “Girls”, “Geographer of the Globe Propyl”, “Zuleikha Opens His Eyes”, “Heart of Parma”, etc.
Kudymkar is the capital of the Komi-Permyatsk district, which has been part of the region since 2005, waiting for fans of folk crafts. Here to this day, they preserve the traditions of their ancestors, collect pistics in the spring and prepare pies with pistics that have already become a legend from them.
They also do not forget about their heroes who gave birth to these lands. Kudym-osh is not only a character of the Komi-Permyak national epic, but also a symbol of one of the races of the series “Running on the Edge”.
In general, running in the Perm region has become popular. The organizers now and then unite runners who are ready to help seriously ill children, then gather them in different parts of the region, to get acquainted with remote areas, showing that each corner is beautiful in its own way.
As for the capital of the region, Perm is a large cultural and business center, where you organize a tour of the city, showing beautiful architecture with its rich history. Museums will tell about the history of the city and its honored residents. For independent travelers, the Green and Red Line project has been developed.
Hiking trails will take you through architectural sights and places of romantic stories of famous people, such as Diaghilev. If you are on a business trip, business centers will help solve all working issues in a cozy atmosphere.
Pay attention to the art objects, which in turn are also closely related to the history of the local places.
For example, the sculpture “Permyak – salty ears”. According to legend, it is associated with the widespread salt production in the region. There is an opinion that the nickname was given to workers who carried bags of salt on their shoulders, which made their ears soaked in salt, became large and acquired a red color.
Or the sculpture “The Legend of the Perm Bear”. Why the bear in Perm? Among the indigenous peoples of the Perm region, the bear is a sacred animal, and a plaque depicting a bear in a “sacrificial pose” was an unofficial symbol of the Perm region.
To brighten up the gloomy days of the Urals, and their residents watch for almost six months, many festivals have been invented, from local to international significance. The geography of the festivals is also diverse.
Perhaps it is worth talking about one of the most important and large-scale - this is the "Perm period". New time. The festival is dedicated to the 300th anniversary of Perm and is held under the motto “Without five minutes three hundred”.
Five years before the anniversary, the festival unites various venues of the city, where artists, masters with various master classes perform, and the city immediately comes to life!
Kamwa, Rock-line, Sky Fair, Diaghilev Seasons, Flahertina - these names have long been known far beyond Russia, because every year these events come not only participants, but also guests from different countries, which makes the situation even more atmospheric.
And festivals such as the Mystery of the Cross Mountain create a certain business card for small towns, where this holiday takes place, and for the region as a whole.
Near Gubakha, on Mount Krestovaya for more than 5 years, the sunset has been seen off to the best ballet productions.
The cultural and leisure part of Perm is no less developed. In 2019, the festival of light music was held for the first time, one of the themes of which was ballet and, in particular, S. P. Diaghilev himself. At 5 venues, shows with the use of light and sound were presented.
It is difficult to single out any area or one specific place, event, but I would like to mention those with which the Perm region is associated.
The Kungur ice cave is considered the seventh longest among gypsum caves in the world, the Belogorsk monastery on the White Mountain, which offers an unforgettable view, Molebka - places of alleged paranormal activity,
Stone city is a landscape monument of nature, Khokhlova is an architectural and ethnographic open-air museum, ethnographic park of the Chusovaya River, and of course who has not heard about the series “Real Boys”!?
A comedy television series about the life of Kolyan and his friends.
Be that as it may, the Permians claim that “Happiness is not far off”, and its numerous analogues “Happiness is here” and “Happiness in the mountains” seem to confirm this.
