Over the Ural Mountains...
"I love chilly Chelyabinsk!"
Chelyabinsk is a Russian city, just east of the Ural Mountains, and quite close to Kazakhstan. It is a major industrial city, producing much of the world's stainless steel and road building equipment.
This is a restaurant on Arbat Street, created in the old style.
Chelyabinsk actually has quite a lot to offer its residents: There are 169 schools, lyceums and community colleges and 14 music and art schools in Chelyabinsk. People can attend theatres, an art gallery, a philharmonic hall, an organ hall, a circus, several museums and 19 cinemas.
This church is just opposite a university in Chelyabinsk, Russian Orthodox, with its beautiful onion domes.
"Give it a chance!"
This is the Love Sphere, in a park where people can be seen walking their little dogs in the snow of February.
