Impressions from a visit to the village of October Bashny.Net

Village of October - one of the most depressed communities located in Kamchatka. The author of this post could visit there and make an interesting article with photos and comments. I propose to read it further.





In the village there is an unusual contrast:
of total sulfur squalor and gloom dominate beautiful white wind turbines.



Windmills Danish production, height of about 40 meters, can be seen from any point of the village.



It looks surreal.



Yards of five-story building.





Asphalt in the October no passing cars raise clouds of dust,
that envelop pedestrians, and those are not even trying to hide or move away.





Central street.



Shop on the main street.



Mini-market.



Artifact on the building-mail.



The old playground.



New playground.



Pay children's attraction in the yard.



In October, wooden garages and homes lined top to bottom with roofing material.
This \ "trick \" severely distorts the appearance of the whole village.





Fences made of oxygen cylinders found in Kamchatka everywhere.



Oktyabrtsy.



At entrances instead litter bins are large pots.



Sea of ​​Okhotsk.



Street abandoned dvuhetazhek.



School.



Administration Building.



Cemetery.



October - the richest village in Kamchatka on fishery resources.
Past him to spawn are tens of thousands of tons of salmon.



Here is mined each year tens of thousands of tons of seafood worth billions of rubles.
Almost everyone goes to China, Korea and Japan. Net income of the October is just something about 4 million. Rubles.



This situation is typical for Russia: the main resources in the hands of large companies,
that focus on the export of raw. In summer, residents of the October sees endless convoy,
to take away from here \ "Red Gold \". A settlement remain broken roads, which he is required to maintain at its own expense.



Road in October, which regularly destroy waves of the Okhotsk Sea.



Is it worth it, arriving to Kamchatka volcanoes and beauty of hot springs,
go here, in this wilderness? Yes! Worth it! :) This color, so many shades of gray I have not seen anywhere else.
