Russia: Pilgrims begin Velikoretsky Procession of the Cross in Kirov
Tens of thousands of pilgrims began the Velikoretsky Procession of the Cross, in Kirov on Saturday.
Orthodox pilgrims from Vyatka, other regions of the country, as well as from abroad, will walk more than 150 kilometres (93 miles) on foot for six days: through fields, forests and swamps, stopping in several locations.
SOT, Arkadiy, a pilgrim (Russian): Emotions, the feelings that you get here, you cannot get anywhere else, not on any sea or on any island. What you get here is very valuable, and those emotions that get in here last for the whole year.
SOT, Nadezhda Kosolapova, a pilgrim (Russian): Here it is like your are in another world, in another country. It's hard to go back to the ordinary world from here. Every year it pulls us to come back.
SOT, Pilgrim (Russian): [I am here] with a sense of happiness because I am going, I was waiting for this. Larisa [a woman next to her] invited me to go. I am going for the first time.

The ancient town of Suzdal, the main town of the ancient Russian principality in the 12th-13th centuries, is located in the centre of the European part of Russia, some 200 km east of Moscow, 30 km from Vladimir. The White Monuments of Suzdal are outstanding examples of ancient Russian architecture. These white-stone structures is a unique phenomenon, incorporating the best work of creative master-minds and presenting an amazing synthesis of architecture and monumental art. The architecture Suzdal is an outstanding example of the development and perfection of architectural shapes and building techniques which formed a unique school of architecture. This influential style began and achieved its greatest expression here and illustrates the most important stage of human history and culture in the North-East Rus. Widely used as an example for subsequent construction throughout Russian history, they set a standard as a benchmark of architectural beauty and expressiveness of Russian ecclesiastical architecture. In Suzdal, the Kremlin (fortress) is surrounded by earthen ramparts. Within, dominating the whole town, stands the Cathedral of the Nativity, built in the 13th century and reconstructed in the 16th century, with its five-domed roof and 13th-century Golden Doors. Important monuments in the posad (civil settlement) include several cubic churches of the 16th and 17th centuries, such as the Convent of the Deposition of the Holy Robe and the Refectory Church of the Assumption, and several monasteries. The most important of the latter is the Monastery of Our Saviour and St Euthymius, founded in 1352. Some of the monuments are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

MOSCOW RIVER BOAT TOUR | MAGNIFICENT VIEW OS MOSCOW | RUSSIA
We enjoyed the great views of Moscow from the river.It was fascinating to see all the important landmarks of Moscow strategically built along the river Moskva.
The boat ride was for 1 hour and we paid 1400 rub for two adults.
We tried to book ticket on their website but confused. Their staff allowed us to enter
and book ticket inside the boat.
If you don’t book in advance the tickets are usually sold out so it’s best to book in advance to avoid disappointment.
It is possible to buy food on board.We chose to sit upstairs outdoors and enjoyed beautiful Moscow sights.
We saw St Basil's Cathedral, the Kremlin, Cathedral of Christ the Saviour and Monument to Peter the Great from the boat.
It is magnificient especially at sunset.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
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! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Russia (Russian: Росси́я, tr. Rossiya, IPA: [rɐˈsʲijə]), officially the Russian Federation (Russian: Росси́йская Федера́ция, tr. Rossiyskaya Federatsiya, IPA: [rɐˈsʲijskəjə fʲɪdʲɪˈratsɨjə]), is a country in Eurasia. At 17,125,200 square kilometres (6,612,100 sq mi), Russia is the largest country in the world by area, covering more than one-eighth of the Earth's inhabited land area, and the ninth most populous, with about 144.5 million people as of 2018, excluding Crimea. About 77% of the population live in the western, European part of the country. Russia's capital, Moscow, is the largest metropolitan area in Europe proper and one of the largest cities in the world; other major cities include Saint Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Yekaterinburg and Nizhny Novgorod. Extending across the entirety of Northern Asia and much of Eastern Europe, Russia spans eleven time zones and incorporates a wide range of environments and landforms. From northwest to southeast, Russia shares land borders with Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland (both with Kaliningrad Oblast), Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia and North Korea. It shares maritime borders with Japan by the Sea of Okhotsk and the U.S. state of Alaska across the Bering Strait.
The East Slavs emerged as a recognizable group in Europe between the 3rd and 8th centuries AD. Founded and ruled by a Varangian warrior elite and their descendants, the medieval state of Rus arose in the 9th century. In 988 it adopted Orthodox Christianity from the Byzantine Empire, beginning the synthesis of Byzantine and Slavic cultures that defined Russian culture for the next millennium. Rus' ultimately disintegrated into a number of smaller states; most of the Rus' lands were overrun by the Mongol invasion and became tributaries of the nomadic Golden Horde in the 13th century. The Grand Duchy of Moscow gradually reunified the surrounding Russian principalities, achieved independence from the Golden Horde. By the 18th century, the nation had greatly expanded through conquest, annexation, and exploration to become the Russian Empire, which was the third largest empire in history, stretching from Poland on the west to Alaska on the east.Following the Russian Revolution, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic became the largest and leading constituent of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, the world's first constitutionally socialist state. The Soviet Union played a decisive role in the Allied victory in World War II, and emerged as a recognized superpower and rival to the United States during the Cold War. The Soviet era saw some of the most significant technological achievements of the 20th century, including the world's first human-made satellite and the launching of the first humans in space. By the end of 1990, the Soviet Union had the world's second largest economy, largest standing military in the world and the largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, twelve independent republics emerged from the USSR: Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and the Baltic states regained independence: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania; the Russian SFSR reconstituted itself as the Russian Federation and is recognized as the continuing legal personality and a successor of the Soviet Union. It is governed as a federal semi-presidential republic.
Russia's economy ranks as the twelfth largest by nominal GDP and sixth largest by purchasing power parity in 2015. Russia's extensive mineral and energy resources are the largest such reserves in the world, making it one of the leading producers of oil and natural gas globally. The country is one of the five recognized nuclear weapons states and possesses the largest stockpile of weapons ...
