Forum of travelers and tourists - share your impressions about Yekaterinburg.

Yekaterinburg is unofficially called the capital of the Urals. Its rich architectural and cultural heritage attracts more and more tourists every year. To date, the city is ranked among such giant cities as St. Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan in terms of tourist visits. Yekaterinburg hosts more than 600 architectural and cultural attractions, 43 of them are monuments of federal significance.

Undoubtedly, the city will surprise you. In it we recommend to visit:

• Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. The beginning of construction dates back to 1838. It was built in the style of classicism and has undergone many changes. Modern restoration has given a solemn look to the cathedral: a marble floor assembled from thousands of pieces, richly decorated walls, juicy colors of restored frescoes.
• Museum of the History of Stone-cutting and Jewelry Art. Amazing products made of natural minerals will not leave any beauty indifferent.
• Temple-on-blood. The largest temple in Yekaterinburg erected on the site of the execution of the royal family. The temple consists of 2 levels: lower and upper. The lower level is a symbol of the basement of the Ipatiev house, and the upper level is a symbol of the unquenchable lamp that does not fade in memory of tragic events. Near the temple there is a monument to the emperor's family — she goes down to the basement, from which she is not destined to return.
• Nature Park "Deer Streams". The famous landmark is the sculpture "Angel of One Hope". 49 figures symbolizing peace and love will be created within the framework of the United Hope project. An interesting fact is that all these figures will be placed in different places on the planet and the place for the sculpture in the park was chosen because the border between Europe and Asia runs here.
• Lake Shartash. Lake Shartash is famous for the fact that, according to archaeologists, it is one million years old. Neolithic and Bronze Age artifacts have been found on the shores. Here you can ride bicycles along tourist routes, or on boats or catamarans directly on the lake.
