Krasnoyarsk, Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russian Federation, Asia

Krasnoyarsk is a city and the administrative center of Krasnoyarsk Krai, Russia, located on the Yenisei River. It is the third largest city in Siberia after Novosibirsk and Omsk, with a population of 973,826 (2010 Census). Krasnoyarsk is an important junction of the Trans-Siberian Railway and one of Russia's largest producers of aluminium. The city is notable for its nature landscapes; author Anton Chekhov judged Krasnoyarsk to be the most beautiful city in Siberia. The city was founded on August 19, 1628 as a Russian border fort when a group of service class people from Yeniseysk led by Andrey Dubenskoy arrived at the confluence of the Kacha and Yenisei Rivers and constructed fortifications intended to protect the frontier from attacks of native peoples who lived along Yenisei and its tributaries. The fort was named Krasny Yar after the Yarin (a dialect of Khakas) name of the place it was built, Kyzyl Char ('red steep-riverbank'), which was translated as Krasny Yar (using the old meaning of krasny). An intensive growth of Krasnoyarsk began with the arrival of the Siberian Route (the road M53 nowadays) in 1735 to 1741 which connected the nearby towns of Achinsk and Kansk with Krasnoyarsk and with the rest of Russia. In 1749, a meteorite with a mass of about 700 kilograms (1,500 lb) was found 145 miles (233 km) south of Krasnoyarsk. It was excavated by Peter Simon Pallas in 1772 and transported to Krasnoyarsk and subsequently to St. Petersburg. The Krasnoyarsk meteorite is important because it was the first pallasite ever studied and the first meteorite ever etched. The name Krasnoyarsk was given in 1822 when the village of Krasny Yar was granted town status[citation needed] and became the administrative center of Yeniseysk Governorate. In the 19th century, Krasnoyarsk was the center of the Siberian Cossack movement. By the end of the 19th century, Krasnoyarsk had several manufacturing facilities and railroad workshops and an engine-house. Growth continued with the discovery of gold and the arrival of a railroad in 1895. In the Russian Empire, Krasnoyarsk was one of the places to which political exiles were banished. For example, eight Decembrists were deported from St. Petersburg to Krasnoyarsk after the failure of the revolt. After the Russian Revolution of 1917, during the periods of centralized planning numerous large plants and factories were constructed in Krasnoyarsk: Sibtyazhmash, the dock yard, the paper factory, the hydroelectric power station (now the fifth largest in the world and the second in Russia), and the river port. In 1934, Krasnoyarsk Krai, was formed, with Krasnoyarsk as its administrative center. During Stalinist times, Krasnoyarsk was a major center of the gulag system. The most important labor camp was the Kraslag or Krasnoyarsky ITL (1938-c.1960) with the two units located in Kansk and Reshyoty. In the city of Krasnoyarsk itself, the Yeniseylag or Yeniseysky ITL labor camp was prominent as well during World War II (c. 1940-41). During World War II, dozens of factories were evacuated from Ukraine and Western Russia to Krasnoyarsk and nearby towns, stimulating the industrial growth of the city. After the war additional large plants were constructed: the aluminum plant, the metallurgic plant, the plant of base metals and many others. In the late 1970s, the Soviet Union began constructing a phased array radar station at Abalakova, near Krasnoyarsk, which violated the ABM Treaty. Beginning in 1983, the United States demanded its removal, until the Soviet Union admitted the radar station was a violation in 1989. Equipment was slowly removed from the site and by 1992 it was officially declared to be dismantled, though the equipment from the site was likely relocated to a new site near Komsomolsk-na-Amure. Krasnoyarsk was also a home to Krasnoyarsk Northeast air base, which was turned into living blocks after the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

상트페테르부르크에서 약 450km 떨어진 셀리게르 호수. 160개의 크고 작은 섬으로 이루어져 있어 자연경관이 돋보이는 곳이다. 스토로브니섬에 위치한 닐로프 수도원. 소련시절 종교 탄압을 받아 군사시설과 병원으로 활용됐다. 소련 정권이 무너지고 러시아 시대를 맞이한 후 본래 수도원의 모습을 되찾을 수 있었다. “소비에트 연방이 붕괴된 이후 다시 본 모습을 되찾았습니다. 마치 성자들과 신도들의 간절한 기도에 응답한 것처럼 수도원이 복원 되었습니다. 기적 같은 일입니다” 수도원 안으로 들어가 봤다. 새롭게 단장된 모습에서 종교탄압의 흔적은 찾아볼 수 없었다. 평일인데도 예배가 한창이다. 종교의 자유를 되찾은 모습이 무척 평화롭게 느껴졌다. 나는 수도원의 가장 높은 곳으로 향했다. 가파른 계단을 오르자 멋진 풍경이 눈앞에 펼쳐진다. 수도원의 화려한 지붕과 셀리게르 호수의 아름다운 모습이 어우러져 장관을 이룬다. 마치 동화 속에서나 볼 수 있을 듯한 풍경이다. 종교 활동이 금지됐던 시절, 러시아 정교를 믿는 사람들의 의지는 어떠한 탄압보다 강했다.

Celiger Lake, about 450 km from Saint Petersburg. It is made up of 160 large and small islands, and it is a place where natural scenery stands out. Neilope's monastery on the island of Srolovny. During the Soviet era, it was oppressed by religion and used as military facilities and hospitals. After the collapse of the Soviet regime and the arrival of the Russian era, the original monastery was restored. I have regained my sight since the collapse of the Soviet Union. The monastery was restored as if it were responding to the eager prayers of saints and believers. It's a miracle. I went inside the monastery. No trace of religious oppression was found in the newly refurbished figure. Worship is in full swing even on weekdays. I felt very peaceful when I regained freedom of religion. I headed to the highest point of the monastery. As you climb the steep stairs, a stunning landscape unfolds in front of you. The spectacular roof of the monastery and the beautiful view of the lake Celigor blend together. It is a landscape that seems to be seen in a fairy tale. When religion was banned, the will of those who believed in Russian Orthodox was stronger than any oppression.

Озеро Целигер, примерно в 450 км от Санкт-Петербурга. Он состоит из 160 больших и малых островов, и это место, где выделяются природные пейзажи. Монастырь Нейлопа на острове Сроловны. В советское время он был подавлен религией и использовался как военные объекты и больницы. После распада советского режима и прихода русской эпохи был восстановлен первоначальный монастырь. «Я вернулся из виду с момента распада Советского Союза. Монастырь был восстановлен, как будто он отвечал на жаждущие молитвы святых и верующих. Это чудо. Я вошел в монастырь. Никаких следов религиозного угнетения не было обнаружено в недавно отреставрированной фигуре. Поклонение идет полным ходом даже в будние дни. Я чувствовал себя очень мирно, когда я вернулся к свободе религии. Я направился к самой высокой точке монастыря. Когда вы поднимаетесь по крутой лестнице, перед вами открывается потрясающий пейзаж. Великолепная крыша монастыря и прекрасный вид на озеро Целигор сочетаются вместе. Это пейзаж, который, кажется, виден в сказке. Когда религия была запрещена, воля тех, кто верил в русских православных, был сильнее любого угнетения.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping!

SUMMARY
=======
The list below, enumerates the selected sites of the Soviet forced labor camps (known in Russian as the corrective labor camps) of the Gulag. Most of them served mining, construction, and timber works. It is estimated that for most of its existence, the Gulag system consisted of over 30,000 camps, divided into three categories according to the number of prisoners held. The largest camps consisted of more than 25,000 prisoners each, medium size camps held from 5,000 to 25,000 inmates, and the smallest, but most numerous labor camps operated with less than 5,000 people each. Even this incomplete list can give a fair idea of the scale of forced labor in the USSR.
