The capital of the Urals

If the best city on the letter "P" were Cheboksary, then on the "O", it's definitely, Ekaterinburg.
How Come? Firstly, this is a great city with a rich infrastructure, shops, restaurants and other urban amenities. Secondly - it was beautiful. I have not seen alyapistyh remakes and architectural salad, common to many other cities. In the center is pleasant to walk, and even Uralmash called in the 90 years the criminal capital of Russia - a beautiful, green and quiet area. At least in the daytime.

White Tower - the symbol of Uralmash:



Another detail that has become a landmark for Yekaterinburg Shirokorechenskiy cemetery. Monuments Sverdlovsk bandits - a monument to all of perestroika, which survived our country:







Four graves belong to the leader of the gang Sverdlovsk Oleg Vagin and his friends, who were shot in a single day in the city center:



Finally, in order not to end the post on a gloomy note - several high-altitude photographs Uralmashplant:



Uralmash - one of the largest enterprises in Russia. It produces equipment for the mining sector, metallurgy, cement industry and the energy sector. During the war there were made more than 19,000 hulls, 30,000 field and tank guns, about 6,000 tanks:
