Since 2 years the international open air music festival ''Vozduh'' (''Air'') has taken place in Petrozavodsk. The rock bands from all over Russia and also abroad take part in it (among them: Alisa, Masha and bears, SerGa, King and the clown, the Pilot and others). The festival usually is organized at the aerodrome outside of the town, not far away from Onego lake, in the end of june. This year 2007 it will be held on 22-24 of june. As you see, the festival lasts for 3 days. You can come here on the day, you wish or you can live in the tent for the whole time right here. It is an unforgettable event for all fans of rock music. Here you can meet friends, get to know people and of course have much fun! The Festival ''Vozduh'' is the meeting point of all citizens of Petrozavodsk and guests of the town.

 The enmankment at late evening by Anjutka
You will find many interesting monuments and statues here. Most of them were given to P. by its twin cities(for example, Varkaus, Neubrandenburg, Dulut, Mo i Rana, St.Petersburg others). Each of them is worth of observing. So it is some kind of mix of different cultures there i can say. And also among these "presents" of P.' friendly towns you can also find a Tree of wishes. Really! You will tell it your wish and it will be true very soon.
Often people ask the tree about visiting Petrozaviodsk again:)
And if you are tired of walking along the enbankment you can enjoy the lake's views sitting at one of open cafes there. Leave a Comment Directions: Down the main street...
