Places to see in ( Sanremo - Italy ) Russian Orthodox Church - San Basilio
Between 1874 and 1875, the Russian tsarina Maria Aleksandrovna, wife of the tsar Alexander II, spent the winter season in San Remo and thus inaugurated the tradition of Russians traveling to the riviera for the winter. As a symbol of her gratitude, she gave the town the palm trees that can still be seen along the promenade and in return, the City Council dedicated the promenade to her, henceforth called “Corso Imperatrice”, to express their appreciation to the tsarina.
The Russian writer A.K. Tolstoy (a distant relative to Leo Tolstoy) spent his last winter at the tsarina’s court in San Remo, and from his letters we known much about the way in which the Russians lived on the Italian Riviera. Following the tsarina’s example, the Russian aristocracy, including members of the Imperial family, began to spend their winter season in San Remo. The Grand Duke Aleksej Michajlovic was here receiving treatment for tuberculosis in 1895 when he died at only twenty years old. He was then buried in the Cathedral of Sts Peter and Paul in San Petersburg.
The idea to build a Russian church in San Remo was first ascribed to the Grand Duke Sergej Michajlovic, who stayed at Villa Flora in the 1890’s, and also to the tsarina Maria Aleksandrovna. At that time, many aristocratic Russian families, such as the Olsufevs, the Seremetevs, and the Demidovs, owned villas to spend the winter season on the Riviera. Many Russians suffering from tuberculosis chose San Remo to spend their winters and as a result a Russian bath, a bakery and a pharmacy were soon established in the Ligurian town.
Towards the end of the nineteenth century, the idea of building a church began to spread within the Russian Colony, but the project was hampered by the lack of funds. Until 1908, when the Russian chapel in the cemetery was consecrated, the rites were sometimes held in private churches, as in Mrs Strekalova’s Villa Gloria, and in a building on Via Roma (at No. 22). In 1910, a Supervising Committee – later called the Building Committee – was led by V. K. Sabler, a senator and the former Procurator of the Saint Synod, who had spent six years in San Remo in 1882 to get healed. In his own words, he “had personally seen how necessary a church was in a town where thousands of sick people stayed”. In 1911 Sabler was appointed Procurator of the Saint Synod again and the project was thus pushed forward.
The church was consecrated to the Saviour, to Saint Catherine the martyr, and to Saint Serafim of Sarov, though at first it had been suggested that the church be consecrated to only the Saviour, as it is usually referred today. The representatives of the Anglican and Protestant clergy celebrated with the Russian community, while the Catholic priests were not able to join in the celebrations. After the consecration of the church, the Committee had a “Russian lunch” gala offered at the Savoy Hotel during which a telegram was written to the tsar Nicholas II, who was then in Levadija (Crimea). The new church was ascribed to the eparchy of Saint Petersburg among the “churches in foreign health resorts”. Its first rector was Nevskij p. Varsonofij.

Челябинская область в 1950 году
Chelyabinsk region in 1950
Chelyabinsk Oblast is located in the southern Ural mountains region of Russia and is on the border of Europe and Asia.
During the 1930s, the regional economy and industrial output grew as Chelyabinsk Oblast became a key focus of the first Five-Year Plans. Key factories and enterprises that formed the core of the modern Chelyabinsk economy, including the Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works, the Chelyabinsk Tractor Plant and the Chelyabinsk Metallurgical Plant, were founded at this time. The economy continued to grow with the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War, as industries were evacuated from the western parts of the Soviet Union to Ural, and Chelyabinsk Oblast in particular.
During the war, Magnitogorsk alone produced one third of all Soviet steel, while the city of Chelyabinsk became the main centre of Soviet tank production, earning the nickname Tankograd (Tank City)........

Путешествие в Узбекистан. Travel to Uzbekistan. Reise nach Usbekistan
Нас 8-мь путешественников: Никита, Женя, Володя, Лена, Ксюша, Таня Серебрякова, Таня Быстрова и Саша. С 6 по 13 апреля 2012 г. Мы поехали в Узбекистан по маршуруту: Самарканд, Бухара, Ташкент. Посмотреть производство ковров, керамики, шелка, сладостей. Прогуляться по базарам. Посмотреть как отразилась история Узбекистана (шелковый путь, Тамерлан, Улугбек, религия) на современном облике городов: улиц, домах, быте, отношениях между людьми. Ну и конечно солнце, тюльпаны, цветущий урюк, сладкие источники, розовая вода.

Our route was Samarkand—Bukhara—Tashkent. We went to Uzbekistan to watch how carpets, ceramics, silk and sweets are being made. To stroll through the bazaars. To see how the history of Uzbekistan (The Great Silk Road, Tamerlane, Ulugbek, religious tradition) is reflected in modern cities: in streets, buildings, everyday life and people's relationships. And to experience the sun, tulips, apricot in bloom, sweet springs and rose water, of course.
