Vozdvizhenie (Exaltation)

Vozdvizhenie - a village in the Veliky Ustyug district of the Vologda region, located on the bank of the river Sukhona. It is part of the Mardengsky rural settlement. The distance by road to the district center of Velikiy Ustyug is 4 km, to the center of the municipal formation of the Blagoveschenie is 11.5 km. Previously, there was a large stone church of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross on the hill. But it was dismantled in the 1930s. Now Exaltation (Vozdvizhenie in russian) is a common holiday village.

At the foot of the hill on which the village is located, the Vozdvizhenka River flows into the river Sukhona.

During the flood Vozdvizhenka bottled heavily.

The bridge over the river is completely flooded.

The steep coast every year gets closer to the forest.

At the beginning of the 20th century on the banks of the Sukhona in this place were timber rafting points.

Numerous moats of the correct form remind of this.

On the steep bank of the Sukhona and Vozdvizhenka pines grow.

Willow bloomed!

At the beginning of the 20th century, the shores were bare, that is, without vegetation.

Effective river signs.

Union spruce and pine.

Another T-shaped moat.

In childhood, we built huts at the bottom of the moats, and now trees are growing there.

Water rarely rises to such a height.

In such a beautiful place like to relax the locals, as evidenced by the dirty environment.

Pines growing on a steep slope have twisted trunks.

Because of this, their strength becomes less.

It is a pity that such beautiful natural places are not cherished by the locals...
