Tour of Kazan

I want to show some photos of the hospitable city, which this year was hosted by NeForum. Today, a photo story about Kazan - the capital of Tatarstan.

By the way, in the photo: Zilant is a mythical dragon, a symbol of the city of Kazan.

01.

For starters I will show high-rise photos of Kazan. Photos were taken from the 7th and 17th floors of the Grand Hotel Kazan, where I lived all three days during the event.

02.

Pedestrian street of Bauman. In Kazan, I'm not the first time. Until June 2016 I always came to this city along the Volga by steam-ships and visited it only for several hours. But for that little time I managed to see something. I was here, for example, in 2010 , in 2012 and in 2013 . Even in 2015 they went for half an hour .

03.

I made high-rise photos of Kazan at sunset at the end of the first day of the NeForum. It turns out that I have Kazan not only high-rise, but also evening.

04.

Somewhere in front of the Tatar State Academic Theater named after Galiaskar Kamal in the left part of the frame is hiding Shurale :)

05.

Park 1000 anniversary of Kazan, Lake Nizhny Kaban and built in 2002, the sports complex "Basket Hall."

06.

On the second evening of the NeForum, together with Alexander, we walked a little along the tourist paths of Kazan.

07.

At the beginning of Bauman Street we saw street dancers.

08.

Epiphany Cathedral.

09.

Profsoyuznaya Street. The Chabad-Lubavitch Synagogue. Opposite to the cafe "Syria".

10.

Kazan strikes beautiful new and restored buildings, the purity of their streets. But not always. There are also such ruins - the refuge of homeless people right next to the place of mass walks of visitors and residents of the city.

11.

The closed vestibule of the metro station Kremlyovskaya. On the subway, we will still ride.

12.

And this we have already reached the Kazan Kremlin.

13.

The Kul-Sharif mosque.

14.

15.

The falling tower of Syuyumbike and the Annunciation Cathedral.

16.

From the observation deck of the Kremlin you can see the quaint architectural forms of the city. The Palace of Farmers (the building of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Tatarstan).

17.

Residential complex "Dvortsovaya Naberezhnaya".

18.

Spasskaya travel tower with a church in the name of the Savior's Image of the Savior.

19.

Monument to Musa Jalil.

20.

At this our walk did not end. We decided to pass to the left of the Kazan Kremlin. Found a sculptural composition Peacock.

21.

We looked at the Kazan Kremlin in the rays of the sunset.

22.

We got to Kazanka quay, but we found nothing of particular interest here.

23.

The Kazan Kremlin and the Circus of Kazan. By the way, city buses in Kazan are all red.

24.

On one of the official buildings of the circus, I noticed a lot of animal images. There was even an idea: to take a picture of each picture, and then to spread one by one a day. After all, some like to wind SK, torturing readers with different city graffiti and clogging a band of friends with such a one-shot muck. I hope that I do not skip to such disgusting deeds.

25.

I have never been to the Kazan Metro, but this time I managed to correct this mistake.

26.

The fare is only 25 rubles, which is two times cheaper than in Moscow. In the cashier you buy here such a token and, dropping it into the counter, you go through the turnstile.

27.

The metro station Kremlyovskaya.

28.

Unusual inscriptions on the doors of the metro car. By the way, the names of stations in Russian, Tatar and English are announced.

29.

Station "Gabdulla Tukaya Square". Come out, come!

30.

This concludes our walk through Kazan, but the NeForum events have not come to the end, which I will discuss in the next parts :)
