Christorozhdestvensky Cathedral
by bugulma
The amazing thing for me is that in Lenin Square there is a church that was kept during Soviet times almost opposite Regional Administration building. The cathedral was built in the end of XVIII century and the bell tower was built a bit later. In Soviet times the regional museum was in the cathedral.
Voronezh River
by bugulma
In every place I've been I did everything that to see the river or lake or sea in the area. In Lipetsk it is Voronezh River. It was not far from the zoo, in 10 minutes by walk I found the city beach and people swam in spite of it was October already, though there were very hot days (up to +25 centigrade).
Peter I Monument
by bugulma
In the park on Pervomayskaya Street there is a monument to Peter I. It was open to 300 years of Russian navy. As a matter of fact in Peter times Russia has access only to Azovskoe Sea and it was the reason why the first Russian navy ships were constructed in the cities situated on the rivers. The one of the such cities was Voronezh, not far from Lipetsk.
Funerals of the Nature ;-(
by Pablos_new
This is very strange monument to the first commissars of Lipetsk (killed during the Civil War in 1920-s).
One can see pipes and smokes of Novolipetsk Iron and Steel Works right behind this small funeral orchestra. So, it could be called "Funerals of the Nature".
Locals call this strange group in the Upper Park - Monument to the Beatles. ;-)
