Phew, I've had a bit of a break from adventures and I'm ready for a mini-report on Yekaterinburg.
I met Sivas there. We even took a picture...
I took a selfie, placing my phone on the railing!
Generally, I was a bit overwhelmed after the busy schedule of activities in the city, all sorts of trips, so I didn't immediately recognize Sivas in the tall, dark-skinned man with kind eyes who approached. It's like you have information about him, but it's still unexpected.
Sivas gave me a short tour of the city and showed me the keyboard monument...
This monumental structure... it's monumental.
Overall, the city seemed beautiful and well-maintained to me, at least the center. And most importantly, it's pleasant to look at the people here.
The area near the dam
is very popular. Lots of people are walking around, and in the background, people are running and cycling along the river, it's beautiful.
Sivas said that he doesn't usually encounter many tourists, but this year, Yekaterinburg must be breaking all records. Immediately after the 2018 World Cup, people came in connection with the centenary of the assassination of the royal family, a sad commemorative date.
Well, I won't make a detailed report (although, if you're interested, let me know), but that's it in general. I didn't spend much time in Yekaterinburg itself, mostly just walked around with Sivas, and otherwise I was outside the city. There are various Temples, monasteries, and a lot of other things... And thanks to my guide, Sivas!
