Volgograd

Volgograd is a special city. There are a lot of interesting periods and people. And what twists history sometimes writes! She took from Volgograd many historical buildings and places of the beautiful Tsaritsyn, but gave the world fame of Stalingrad.

The place of the highest tension is Mamaev Kurgan, the largest monument-ensemble dedicated to the events of the Battle of Stalingrad. Symbolism in some places is simply extreme. There are no piles in any episode - one simple gesture expresses the pain of millions. Who created this masterpiece? Gods? People who have visited this place independently understand that they have touched something great, but there is an understatement, incomprehensibility, and lack of disclosure of some symbols. People who visited Mamaev Kurgan with a tour, if they stay in the city for a few more days, be sure to come here again. Again, they will think about what options can be outsmarted, bypassed, defeated the warrior from the square “Stand to Death” and will not find an answer. Every centimeter of Stalingrad’s ruins will be considered. They'll be getting more air in their chests to get back into the Hall of Fame.

Often surprised by the erudition of many guests, including foreign. Knowledge of not the largest and not the most famous events and people, as well as the desire to touch literally all even minor objects is simply stunning. Those who first came to the Volgograd land and know little about its history take unprecedented attention.

Many guests who have already been to Mamayev Kurgan when they come here again say that their Motherland called. It's an unconscious feeling that can come in two, three, five years and pulls you off incredibly. Almost all such people have the feeling that they were here a long time ago and rediscover everything for themselves. Amazing!

Volgograd is a friendly city, in summer infinitely sunny, sultry. It is impossible to imagine such days without the beach and soft drinks. A lot of people, someone came specially to relax on the Volga coast, someone passing south or back for 1-2 days. But everyone always finds something interesting and attractive here.
