Murmansk eyes Karels
In early October, we had a chance to visit his wife in the hero-city of Murmansk. I hasten to share my impressions with you, dear Yapovtsy) There will be many photons and beeches, please do not break! On completion mayaknu!
Our journey began early in gloomy October morning. Sitting in the car and thought, "What for us all right!", We reset the counter and speedometer set off!
The further we are from the native of Petrozavodsk, the unusual pattern of getting outside - trees all fall less often, leaves on the trees behind the clouds thicker and less ...
but we do not become discouraged and quietly reached the Arctic Circle. Here we made a scheduled stop in the photo, however, did not tie the ribbon / rope / rags lying on the branches of trees close because they do not understand why.
At the entrance to the Monchegorsk picture before our eyes became quite depressing - the bare gray hills, a low gray sky - just like in a real movie about the apocalypse
and a couple of landscapes
...
but I do not lose heart! planted behind the wheel of his beloved, I moved to the back seat and sipping brandy surveyed the neighborhood has more positive :)
Time has flown by beverage companies, and here we are on the spot!
In the distance came the speedometer 946 km, travel time (with stops to eat) - 12 hours.

The next morning, we wasted no time we went to explore the local sights
We started with the legendary "Alyosha": the monument is located on the hill Green Cape and towers over the city and the Kola Bay on 173 meters.
The opening of the monument was timed to the 30th anniversary of the defeat of German forces in the Arctic - October 19, 1974.
The monument is visible from almost anywhere in Murmansk. Being close to the "Alyosha" feel a storm of feelings and emotions, which is difficult to convey in words.
In October 2004, the 60th anniversary of the victory of the Soviet troops in the Arctic, a memorial commemorative plates supplemented alley of hero cities. Below them was laid a capsule with the earth from these cities.
On a hill a magnificent view of the city!
Murmansk - the biggest port city, the base of the icebreaker fleet and "Gates of the Arctic»
Murmansk important railway transportation hub. Murmansk railway station is in close proximity to the port, it is much easier handling.
Next we were shown the pride of the Russian Navy - the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov, photo was made from the floor - sorry for the quality. On the other side of us is a huge building ROSATOM and two icebreakers, take pictures of these attractions, we absolutely do not recommend!
Another place that was chosen for the visit that day - a memorial complex in memory of those killed in peacetime sailor. Complex memory - Church of the Savior on the waters, the symbolic monument lighthouse and observation platform, from which, at a glance, see the Murmansk and the Kola Bay. Opened October 5, 2002
The architectural dominant of the memorial complex is a hexagonal tower lighthouse height of 17, 5 m. In memory of the dead sailors, he sends light and sound signals.
Lighthouse as well as many museums and monuments open from Wednesday to Sunday, we also happened to be there on Monday, so, unfortunately, inside the lighthouse we have not got.
Before a beacon is installed ship anchored at the foot of which was solemnly laid a capsule with water from the sea, where sailors returned to shore. The memorial stone slab - the inscription: "In 2001, the hero-city of Murmansk has begun construction of a memorial to sailors who died in peacetime."
June 15, 2009 near the lighthouse was installed cutting the nuclear submarine "Kursk", which has become a monument to submariners who died in peacetime. Opening of the monument was timed to the Day of the Navy of Russia.
As the air in the Murmansk latitude is not rich with oxygen, these objects for the first day we had enough to get tired, to explore the city, we continued the evening.
Walking down the street we saw Chelyuskintsev local monuments and sculptures.
Here it is staged in memory of the joint fight against the anti-Hitler coalition against fascism in World War II.
Victims of intervention in 1918
Came across here is a wonderful old institution. Cafe "Youth»
In the mid-60s at the intersection of Lenin Avenue and the streets of Trade Unions appeared first in the city of youth cafe "Youth". Here you can have a tasty meal and listen to live music performed by the then little-known Willie Tokarev. The "Youth" played a wedding, celebrating anniversaries, served by all kinds of foreign tourists and delegations, were held Christmas balls and holiday parties.
In general, the city struck her like the deserted post-Soviet state. On the streets of the Soviet era signs - manufactured goods, post office, a hairdressing salon, dining room, etc. There is no longer under the names of these institutions, and signs persist. Buildings in the center of the city was struck by his not well kept.
Many photos spread above, I think it makes no sense, and we do not have them. This is as a kick to the authorities.
Next day and new experiences. This time, our way lay on Abram Cape.
During the war on the high steep bank of the Kola Bay, in front of Murmansk, near the village of Abram-Mys were part of defense, defended the Kola Bay, Arctic military sites, Severomorsk and Murmansk itself from enemy air raids.
