The route Novosibirsk - Tashanta hit the top ten most beautiful roads in the world by the popular science magazine National Geographic. At the height of the tourist season, and against the background of mass bankruptcies of tour operators about this in July hastened to remind the ministry of tourism, business and investments of the Altai Republic. What you can see in my Chuysk, with which points are obtained the most impressive pictures and at what cost to build roads.
Every year, thousands of Novosibirsk travel to Altai one of the most beautiful roads in the world. For inconspicuous names route: Novosibirsk - Tashanta, M52 or R256 - worth the incredible beauty that should see at least once in their lives each.
Photographers working in the Altai, the most beautiful place to shoot on the road in one voice called Chike-Taman - mountain pass 1295 m altitude, on the 659th km of the route. At Southern Altai language "Chike" means - "direct" and "Taman" - a "sole».
In the ranking of National Geographic Chuysk took 5th place in the world of beauty: between the Romanian Transfăgărăşan through the "homeland" Dracula - Transylvania and the "Atlantic road" in Norway, where travelers will get the "Bridge to Heaven" and "Trollstigen" .
Other Russian roads in the list, and the trip to Chuysk compared with traveling across Russia - villages, towns, birch forests, wild rivers, mountains, taiga, steppe: all this can be seen by riding 600 km from Biysk to Tashanta.
Vehicular traffic through "direct sole" is made possible in the 20-ies of the last century. A modern paved road through the Chike-Taman appeared in 1984 - builders incredible efforts gnaw each meter, they had to move more than half a million tons of soil and rock to blow up more than one.
Picturesque Serpentine raises motorists to the observation deck on one side of the road - rocks, on the other - a steep cliff. From such a dangerous neighborhood, the abundance of sharp turns and great look from the road breath.
Photographer Alexander Simushkin recommends for filming Seminsky Pass (573 km of canal. - NG) or Diyala-Meco, in the Altai "Eternal mane." He is above Chike-Taman (photo view from the observation deck on the Chike-Taman) - the road here runs at an altitude of 1739 meters - but the rise is more gentle.
"On the one hand, like anything special - says photographer - but it is the highest pass of Altai, if you leave the car and climb higher biathlon sports camp, then there's just a fabulous location and views».
The ministry of tourism, business and investments of the Altai Republic for tourists developed several routes, including automotive.
Describe all the mountains, monuments, petroglyphs, caves, waterfalls, lakes, mountain passes, natural parks, villages and offering to visit for tourists - it is bulky guidebook.
As an example of a place to visit compulsory Deputy Tourism Development Mergen Ekeev famous rock called Tracts Kalbak Tash, decorated with ancient images on the rocks - petroglyphs.
Chuiski formerly known as Mughal, the oldest mention of it about 1 thousand. Years. "Before the beginning of the XX century, it was just a mountain trail, enjoyed merchants and pilgrims journeyed to the sacred tree in the upper reaches of the river Katun" - like National Geographic.
At the beginning of the last century, at the expense of the Siberian railway and donations merchants "path" was converted into the wheel the way for strengthening Russian-Mongolian trade. The width of the road was about 3, 5 m, and in places almost impassable narrowed to 2, 5 m. It could easily pass small carts.
Soviet authorities undertook Chuiski in 1920, after he came to the strong decline during the civil war and has not been repaired for a long time. In about 10 years the road leveled and covered with gravel to remove the hazardous areas. Instead ferries were built bridges.
The final form of path adopted in the 1934-1935 years. While along the road there was a set of camps prisoners - that prisoners and became the main labor force in construction. The bulk of them were among the dispossessed peasants.
In the case of Chu tract beauty demanded terrible casualties. Bijskij ethnographer and historian Victor Shipilov in the archives found out about the terrible details of the construction.
The most spectacular road Russia is beautiful, like a fairy tale. A really good tale, perhaps, be a little scary.
