History[edit]

Founded in 1618 by men from Tomsk as a Cossack ostrog (fort) on the Tom River, it was initially called Kuznetsky ostrog (Кузне́цкий острог).^[2] It became the seat of Kuznetsky Uyezd in 1622.^[3] Kuznetsk (Кузне́цк) was granted town status in 1689.^[3] It was here that Fyodor Dostoevsky married his first wife, Maria Isayeva (1857).^[13] Joseph Stalin’s rapid industrialization of the Soviet Union transformed the sleepy town into a major coal mining and industrial center in the 1930s. It merged with Sad Gorod in 1931. In 1931–1932, the city was known as Novokuznetsk and between 1932 and 1961 as Stalinsk (Ста́линск), after Stalin.

Climate[edit]

Novokuznetsk has a fairly typical southwest Siberian humid continental climate (Köppen climate classification: Dfb) with warm summers during which most of the precipitation occurs, and severe, generally dry winters. Snowfall is very frequent during the winter, but its water content is generally very low due to the cold temperatures.

I live in Kuznetsk. It is a town in the Penza region on the Truev river with a population of about 80 thousand people.

Our town is quite green. There are both multi-storey and private single-storey houses.

There are beautiful churches and historical buildings in Kuznetsk. One of the main attractions of the town is the Hill of military Glory. One can see monuments to outstanding people of the past in the town: a monument to V. I. Lenin, busts of A. S. Pushkin and M. Gorky, and others. Another attraction is the large taganait stone.

On weekends, one can go to the Gulliver cinema or the Mirage bowling club.

The city has a good sports infrastructure. There are two swimming pools — Neptune and Parus. There are also sports and recreation complexes, a stadium, a ski base and an ice palace Arena.

As for the town’s economy, the situation is quite complicated. There are food processing companies, furniture manufacturing companies, and other organizations. But it’s not easy to find a good job. I believe this explains the fact that the population is steadily declining.

I don’t know yet if I will live here in the future. But in any case, I will always love my hometown.

Я живу в Кузнецке. Это город в Пензенской области на реке Труёв с населением около 80 тысяч человек.

Наш город достаточно зеленый. Здесь есть как многоэтажные, так и частные одноэтажные дома.

В Кузнецке есть красивые церкви и исторические здания. Одной из главных достопримечательностей города является Холм воинской Славы. В городе можно увидеть памятники выдающимся людям прошлого: памятник В. И. Ленину, бюсты А. С. Пушкина и М. Горького и другие. Еще одной достопримечательностью является большой камень таганаит.

На выходных можно сходить в кинотеатр Гулливер или боулинг-клуб Мираж.

В городе хорошая спортивная инфраструктура. Есть два бассейна — Нептун и Парус. Также есть физкультурно-оздоровительные комплексы, стадион, лыжная база и ледовый дворец Арена.

Что касается экономики города, ситуация довольно сложная. Здесь есть предприятия пищевой промышленности, предприятия по производству мебели и другие организации. Но найти хорошую работу не так легко. Полагаю этим и объясняется тот факт, что численность населения неуклонно сокращается.

Я пока не знаю, останусь ли я здесь жить в будущем. Но в любом случае я всегда буду любить свой родной город.

Novokuznetsk is one of the oldest cities in Siberia. It is called the southern capital of Kuzbass. The city is located on the left and right banks of the river Tom. The history of our city is closely connected with the history of joining and development of Siberia by the Russian state.

Our city didn’t stay aside from the tragic events of Great Patriotic War . The price paid for the Great Victory was high. About 14,500 citizens of Novokuznetsk didn’t return from the fields of war. 55 citizens of Novokuznetsk were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union in Great Patriotic War. Memory of perished soldiers is sacred.

Novokuznetsk is a worker-city, a warrior-city. Kuznetsk steel works was completely transferred on the issue of quality steel and rolled products for tanks, planes and other weapons. Think over! Almost half of all military production of the country was made from the Kuznetsk armor: they are 50.000 tanks, 45.000 aircrafts and 100 million of shells .

Novokuznetsk. Native and beloved. Joy and excitement arise at every meeting with this wonderful city. Each street, each monument of architecture — they are as if features of a familiar and dear face. Yet, beside the everyday routine cares we sometimes forget something important. This important feeling is the linkage of times. To feel yourself the heirs of great history- it means having possibility to create the great present, that is, to create history by your own hands. Novokuznetsk is the incarnation, materialized linkage of times. Here our ancestors lived, here we live and our descendants will live. And it is impossible to stop the river of time: the 400th anniversary of our dear city is approaching.

A wooden fort, which appeared in 1618 on the Tom River, became one of the most important supporting posts of the Russian Empire beyond the Urals. Gradually the settlements began to grow around the fortress, and the post of resistance became the town, which since 1622 acquired the name of Kuznetsk.

Also at that time Kuznetsk was awarded the coat of arms with the wolf — symbol of freedom and wastelands. Kuznetsk continued to carry out the functions of fore post — it protected the territory from the invasion of Jungarian and Kyrgyz hordes.

Kuznetsk, a city build manually from wood, with the five towers, became the center of a vast territory. But it has not got significant development until 1930.

New legendary history of the city began along with building the railway to Kuznetsk in 1914 and decision of building Kuznetsk (at that time Telbessky) steel works, made by Russian Government in 1927. In 1930 the first blast furnace foundation was made. At the same time the first stone block of flats was carried out according to the design of an outstanding German architect Ernst Mai.

During the following seventy years the city has acquired its inimitable look, its unique character, expressed in straight light streets, memorable squares and architectural ensembles. The best architects of the country put their wonderful ideas into practice in our city.

The city celebrated its 380 anniversary in 1998 by restoration of the defensive structures of the early XIX century, their half-bastions, gate tower and barracks.

The dream of the revolutionary poet V.V. Mayakovsky and thousands of Novokuznetsk citizens about the Garden city is becoming true. In summer the city is sinking in greenery and flowers.

The city Drama Theater, houses of culture and technique, art and ethnography museums, I.P. Bardin Academy museum have become the real universities of arts. Many young citizens have their studies here, acquiring fundamental knowledge and getting accustomed to culture.

Come to visit our city, you will definitely want to visit our city, see the sights, sit in shady squares, touch the unique historical relics, visit the Dostoyevsky house where he met his love — Maria Issaeva. You can walk about the Boulevard of heroes — the favorite place of Novokuznetsk citizens rest and contacts. We are sure that the beautiful river Tom, surrounded by the beautiful Siberian nature, will also attract your attention.

So, we look forward to meeting you in our remarkable city. Welcome to Novokuznetsk!

Моя родина – Новокузнецк

Город Новокузнецк является одним из старейших городов в Сибири. Его называют южной столицей Кузбасса. Город расположен на левом и правом берегах реки Томь. История нашего города неразрывно связана с историей присоединения и освоения Сибири Российским государством.

Наш город не остался в стороне от трагических событий Великой Отечественной войны. Дорогой ценой оплачена Великая Победа. С полей войны не вернулись почти 14,5 тысяч новокузнечан – горожан. Звание Героя Советского Союза за подвиги во время ВОВ было присвоено 55 новокузнечанам. Память о погибших за Родину воинах – новокузнеченах священна. Новокузнецк — город труженик, город воин. На выпуск качественной стали и проката для танков, самолётов и другого оружия был полностью переведён весь Кузнецкий металлургический комбинат. Вдумайтесь! Из кузнецкой брони было изготовлено 50 тысяч танков, 45 тысяч самолетов, 100 миллионов снарядов – почти половина всей военной продукции страны.

Радостные и волнительные чувства возникают при каждой встрече с этим замечательным городом. Каждая улица, каждый архитектурный памятник — словно черты знакомого дорогого лица. Однако за ежедневными будничными заботами подчас забывается что-то очень важное. Это важное — связь времен. Ощущать себя наследниками великой истории — значит иметь возможность создавать великое настоящее, то есть творить историю своими руками. Новокузнецк это воплощение, материализованная связь времен. Здесь жили наши предки, живем мы и будут жить наши потомки. А реку времени не остановить: приближается 400-летний юбилей возникновения любимого города.

Возникший в 1618 году на реке Томь деревянный острог стал одним из важнейших опорных пунктов Российской империи в Зауралье. Постепенно вокруг крепости начал разрастаться посад, и оборонительное сооружение превратилось в город, который с 1622 года стал именоваться Кузнецком.

Тогда же Кузнецку был пожалован герб с изображением волка — символа свободы и необжитого края. Кузнецк продолжал выполнять функции форпоста — он охранял край от набегов киргизов и джунгарских орд.

Новая легендарная история города началась с прокладки железной дороги в 1914 году до Кузнецка и с принятия решения о строительстве Кузнецкого (тогда Тельбесского) металлургического завода правительством России в 1927 году. В 1930 году был заложен фундамент первой доменной печи. В то же время происходит застройка города первыми каменными жилыми домами по генеральному плану, созданному выдающимся немецким архитектором и градостроителем Эрнстом Маем.

В течение последующих семидесяти лет город приобрел свой неповторимый облик, свой уникальный характер, выраженный в прямых светлых улицах, запоминающихся площадях и архитектурных ансамблях. Лучшие зодчие страны претворили свои замечательные идеи в нашем городе.

Незабываемые уголки и памятники Новокузнецка — проспекта Металлургов, Театральная площадь, архитектурный ансамбль площади им. В.В. Маяковского, застройка улицы имени 25-летия Октября, площадь у Дворца Алюминьщиков, ансамбль застройки ул. Кирова, мемориал бульвара Героев и площади Побед у КМК — это лишь малая часть национального достояния и гордость Новокузнецка.

Реставрацией и реконструкцией оборонительных сооружений начала XIX века, его полубастионов, надвратной башни и солдатских казарм отметил город свой 380-й юбилей в 1998 году.

Мечта революционного поэта В.В. Маяковского и тысячи новокузнечан о создании города-сада сбывается. Летом город утопает в зелени и цветах.

Созданные за эти годы городской Драматический театр, дома культуры и техники, художественные и краеведческие музеи, Музей академии И.П. Бардина превратились в настоящие университеты искусств. Здесь занимаются многие юные горожане, получая фундаментальные знания и приобщаясь к культуре.

Приглашаем посетить наш город, увидеть достопримечательности, посидеть в тенистых скверах, прикоснуться к уникальным историческим реликвиям, побывать в доме им. Ф.М. Достоевского, где он встретил свою любовь — Марию Исаеву. Вы сможете побродить по бульвару Героев — любимому месту отдыха и общения новокузнечан. Уверены, что не останется без Вашего внимания и красавица река Томь, обрамленная удивительной сибирской природой.

Одной из самых полезных тематик в изучении любого иностранного языка остается рассказ о населенных пунктах. Именно поэтому описание города на английском языке включают в методические материалы на различных уровнях обучения.

Историческая часть города

Как правило, план описания города начинается с его истории – а она включает в себя не только рассказ о том, как началась его постройка, но и об архитектуре как таковой. В этой части сочинения вам может пригодится следующая лексика и фразы:

I live in (название города)… — Я живу в…

It is my native (home) town… — Это мой родной город.

The city (town) was founded in… — Город был основан в (таком-то году)

It is situated (located) on the … river (lake). – Он расположен на реке (озере) (название озера).

It became the capital… in. – Он стал столицей…(в таком-то году).

The (название) area is the oldest part of the city (town) – Район… — старейшая часть города.

There are such important buildings as….located. – Здесь располагаются такие важные здания как.

There are many old beautiful houses there. – Здесь есть немало красивых старинных домов.

Рассказывая про город на английском, стоит обратить внимание на разницу в смысловых значениях между city и town. Когда мы говорим о большом городе промышленного или иного значения, в котором к тому же располагается правительство области или округа, то к нему более применимо слово city. Если город небольшой, провинциальный или же не имеет каких-либо градообразующих предприятий, в этом случае уместно использовать town.

Подобное разделение связано с языковыми процессами в средневековом английском, где city называли соборный город или столицу, обнесенную крепостной стеной, а словом tun, от которого произошло town – любую усадьбу, двор или особняк.

Современная часть города

Важнейший аспект для создания полноценного описания города на английском языке – это, конечно же, рассказ о его современной части в частности и всем населенном пункте в целом. Здесь вы можете использовать преимущественно описательную лексику, отражающее ваше собственное восприятие города – а потому вам будут полезны следующие слова и фразы:

• attractive – привлекательный;
• mesmerizing – завораживающий;
• lovely – милый;
• provincial – сонный, захолустный, провинциальный;
• bustling – шумный, суетливый;
• inspiring – вдохновляющий;
• charming – очаровательный;
• contemporary – современный;
• well—maintained – благоустроенный;
• lively – оживленный;
• safe – безопасный;
• picturesque – живописный;
• touristic – туристический;
• boring – унылый, скучный;
• area – район;
• district – район, округ;
• suburb –пригород;
• dwelling house – многоквартирный дом.

The contemporary part of town is… — Современной частью города считается…

There are all government buildings… — Там находятся все правительственные здания.

It is the business part of the city… — Это деловая часть города.

There are a lot of offices. – Здесь много офисных зданий.

This area is bustling with life. – Жизнь в этом районе кипит.

Транспорт

Следующий этап – рассказ о транспортной системе города. Здесь вам пригодятся следующие слова и выражения:

• public transport – общественный транспорт
• a bus — автобус
• a trolley bus — троллейбус
• a tram – трамвай
• tube/subway – метро
• local train/suburban train – электричка, пригородный поезд
• a plane – самолет
• an airport – аэропорт
• a railway station – вокзал
• a bus stop – автобусная остановка.
• You can go there by… — Вы можете добраться туда на.. (вид транспорта).

Достопримечательности

Важнейший аспект рассказа о каком-либо населенном пункте – достопримечательности города на английском языке. Сюда могут входить церкви, соборы, необычные постройки и прочие памятники архитектуры, а также музеи, театры, площади и даже культурные центры. Разумеется, в каждом городе они свои, поэтому предложить вам мы можем базовую лексику – узнавать, как звучат названия туристических мест города на английском, в каждом отдельном случае следует самостоятельно.

• sights/landmarks – достопримечательности, памятники архитектуры
• places of interest – достопримечательности, интересные места
• sightseeing – осмотр достопримечательностей
• achurch— церковь
• a cathedral — собор
• a palace – дворец
• a castle – замок
• a monument – памятник
• a museum – музей
• a theatre – театр
• a square – площадь
• … is one of the oldest and the most beautiful landmark in the city. — … — один из старейших и красивейших архитектурных памятников города.
• It was built/constructed in (год) by (имя архитектора). – Он был построен (имя архитектора) в (год)…

Инфраструктура

Владеющие языком на уровне средний и выше уже вполне способны перейти к такому аспекту как описание улицы города на английском. Как правило, оно включает рассказ о важнейших для жизни объектах, а также указание их местоположения.

• a café — кафе
• a restaurant — ресторан
• a mall – торговый центр
• a hospital — больница
• a supermarket — супермаркет
• a drugstore — аптека
• a bank — банк
• a police station – отделение полиции
• a post office — почта
• a school – школа.
• a library — библиотека
• a university — университет
• On the right there is… — Справа находится…
• left — слева
• behind — сзади
• forward — впереди
• next to – рядом с…

Ориентирование по городу: фразы

Описание того, как пройти туда-то или туда-то в рассказе о городе встречается нечасто – как правило, на продвинутых уровнях владения английским. Однако связанная с данным аспектом лексика всегда вам пригодится как в разговоре, так и ориентировании в незнакомом городе.

Could you tell me the way to… ?- Вы не могли бы подсказать мне, как пройти к…

It is on the … Street. – Это на такой-то улице.

Could you please tell me where … is? – Не подскажете, где находится…?

Go straight ahead and then turn (left|right) – Идите прямо, затем поверните направо (налево)

Turn the corner and then walk two quarters ahead. – Поверните за угол и пройдите два квартала прямо.

• on — на
• at — у
• in — в
• on the right — справа

Тщательно изучив лексику и грамматику, связанную с данной темой, вы вряд ли столкнетесь с какими-либо сложностями – в том числе и при выполнении такого задания как описание города на английском с переводом. Самое главное – узнать правильные названия местных достопримечательностей, и у вас все получится!

My Hometown или My Homecity?

Отмечу такой момент. Вы наверняка знаете, что town — это маленький городок, а city — большой город. Кажется логичным, что, если вы из Москвы, то нужно писать homecity, не так ли? На самом деле, не совсем так. Слово homecity в принципе возможно и понятно, но обычно под hometown подразумевают родной город независимо от его размеров. Вот пример из Cambridge Dictionary:

He was born in Miami, but he considers New York his hometown since he’s lived there most of his life. — Он родился в Майами, но считаю Нью Йорк своим родным городом, так как прожил там большую часть жизни.

You can travel by bus, by trolley, you can even take the underground. Also, Nizhny Novgorod has an advantageous geographical location because it is located between two major cities — Moscow and Kazan.

However, there are also some disadvantages. First of all, it is very dirty and noisy because of traffic jams. Second, it hasn’t got a lot of public areas, such as parks, where you can spend your time with friends. Third, life here is pretty expensive, and the prices of houses and apartments are quite high.

В использовании Новокузнецк, крупнейший город Кемеровской области (560 тысяч жителей), называют просто — Кузня. Здесь нужно побывать, чтобы понять, к какому точному определению: хотя отрасль занимает не слишком много места в городском ландшафте, ее присутствие ощущается постоянно. Закрывая глаза здесь, видите ли, как горит огонь, поворачивают приводные колеса, конвейеры ползут, сливается железо. Кажется, будто даже машины, трамваи, прохожие — все это части промышленных цепей. Новокузнецк — настоящий Город Рабочих, и сразу видно, что «продавцы воздуха» здесь не в цене. А среди промышленных гигантов России это, пожалуй, самое огромное: здесь два металлургических промышленных комплекса полного цикла (аналогичные на постсоветском пространстве только в Мариуполе, но там промышленных комплексов меньше), завод ферросплавов, алюминиевый завод и некоторые уголки. История местной металлургии насчитывает всего несколько сотен (как в Уральских горах) и тысячи лет: в Кузнецке долгое время жили полые абинцы или плоские шорцы, которые еще казаки в 17 веке не случайно прозвали «кузнецким народом» — они поставили с железными изделиями половины Великой Степи. Моя история о Новокузнецке будет состоять из трех частей. В третьем мы рассмотрим Старый Кузнецкий, основанный в 1617 году как тюрьму за завоевание Южной Сибири; во втором мы прогуляемся по Садовому городу — к одному из лучших сталинских ансамблей 1930-х годов; ну а первый мы спускаемся на Кузнецкий металлургический комбинат, с которым строился город и стал Новокузнецком.

In use Novokuznetsk, the largest city of the Kemerovo region (560 thousand inhabitants), name simply — Kuznja. It is necessary to visit here to understand, to what exact definition: though the industry takes not too a lot of place in a city landscape, its presence is felt continuously. Closing eyes here, you see, how fire burns, turn приводные wheels, conveyors creep, the fused iron flows. It seems, as if even cars, trams, passers-by — all is parts of industrial chains. Novokuznetsk is a present City of Workers, and at once it is visible that «sellers of air» here not in the price. And among industrial giants of Russia it perhaps, the most huge: here two metallurgical industrial complexes of a full cycle (similar on the post-Soviet territory is only in Mariupol, but there industrial complexes it is less), factory of ferroalloys, aluminium factory and some collieries. The history of local metallurgy totals at all hundreds (as in Ural Mountains), and thousand years: In Kuznetsk a hollow long since lived абинцы, or flat шорцы, which else Cossacks in 17 century have not casually nicknamed «Kuznetsk people» — they supplied with iron products half of Great Steppe. My story about Novokuznetsk will consist of three parts. In the third we will examine Old Kuznetsk based in 1617 as a jail for conquest of Southern Siberia; in the second we will take a walk on the Garden-city — to one of the best Stalin ensembles of 1930th years; well and the first we descend on Kuznetsk metallurgical industrial complex with which construction the city and became Novokuznetsk.

Kuznetsk-Siberian was founded in 1618. Initially, a fortress was built on this place, then a fortress, around which the city grew. In the 18th and 19th centuries, Kuznetsk was known as a center of gold mining. During the Red Terror, Ivan Rogov’s gang brutalized here, whose members chopped heads, burned estates, and the Knight of St. George, the old general P.N. Putilov, sawed the body with a two-handed saw. Also, the revolutionary authorities came up with a “brilliant” idea to rename Kuznetsk to Novokuznetsk, which was executed. In the 30s, the population of the city increased by 4354%. The largest metallurgical plant was built, coal quarries were developed. Since then, Novokuznetsk has become a major industrial center with a population of about half a million people. The proletarian poet V. Mayakovsky, inspired by the story of a friend about the shock work of Kuznetskstroy, wrote the following lines: “I know – the city will be, I know – the garden blooms, When there are such people in the Soviet country!”. For this work in the city he put a monument, although V. Mayakovsky has never been to Novokuznetsk. In the 1930-1960s, a large number of buildings were built in the style of Soviet constructivism and later Art Deco. Now these houses are the architectural dominant of the center. In 2018, the city celebrated its 400th anniversary with large-scale festivities. Despite the tragic fate, in Kuznetsk there are many attractions and interesting places that are worth visiting.

Historical, architectural and nature reserve

The territory of the reserve stretches over 20 hectares. The center of attraction is the Kuznetsk fortress and a pedestrian route to the waterfalls. Inside the fortress there is a square, benches are installed, the space around the barracks and the officer’s house is landscaped. The restoration of this historical site allowed the residents of Novokuznetsk to feel that their city has a long history. If you go from the fortress in the direction of the Verkhotom redoubt, you can not pass the crevices of the coal mine, through which a mountain stream flows, flowing down the slope of the mountain. In some places it forms small waterfalls that tourists like to visit. A bridge is thrown across the crevice, wildlife and many green spaces around. It is better to come to the reserve by taxi, otherwise you will have to climb the mountain on foot. The way from the nearest bus stop to the main entrance will be about one kilometer.

Kuznetsk Fortress

According to the results of the survey, the Kuznetsk fortress became the main symbol of the city. The construction of the first protective structures on Voznesenskaya Hill was started by decree of Emperor Paul I, who approved the project, but did not live to see its implementation. Kuznetsk was repeatedly attacked by local tribes, there was also a Chinese threat. The construction lasted about 20 years and was completed in 1820. But by that time the situation had changed, the danger had passed. After 26 years, the fortress was completely removed from the balance of the military department, and later it was reconstructed into a prison, where 100-150 prisoners were kept. Among them, the Old Believer Archbishop Savvatiy was noted. In 1919, the “Kuznetsk Prison Castle” was burned by the gang of I. Rogov, who attacked the city. Until the 1960s, the ruins of buildings and walls were torn brick by brick by locals. Then the remains of the fortress were recognized as a monument of history and architecture, began a slow restoration and restoration of the ensemble. Today, the Kuznetsk fortress is fully restored, a museum is arranged on the territory, regular excursions are held. Guns and mortars were installed, cast according to ancient drawings at the end of the 20th century. The museum presents exhibits: weapons, household items, costumes, maps, archaeological finds. From the observation deck and bastions offers a panoramic view of Novokuznetsk. On the day of the city and on other holidays in this historical place often arrange fairs, festivities, dances and costume performances.

Barnaul Telescope

For the first time Barnaul Tower was built in 1810. By the middle of the 20th century, only ruins remained of it. In 1998, the architects completely recreated the ensemble of the tower according to the project of V.P. Usoltsev, but without the gate temple, which was once here. In the process of construction work on the device of the new Barnaul gate had to completely destroy the remains of the ancient tower. As a result, a new object was built, which is much smaller in size and does not look at all like the original, which caused a lot of controversy and complaints.

Alexey writes a review: “Since we have almost no ancient historical sites, the fortress looks good. It is important that it stands on the mountain and you can see the whole city, but from a height it is not very beautiful. Everything is in smoke, like in a fire – and so every day. In winter, there is nothing to do at all: guns in covers, only the main paths are cleared. In summer, you can take a walk, go to the museum, see the guns and walk to the waterfall. “

House of merchant E.A. Fonarev

The mansion is located on the street, where mostly merchants settled. In the 50s of the 19th century, the house was badly damaged by fire, after which it was bought by the merchant of the second guild Alexei Yegorovich Fonarev. The entire first floor of stone has been preserved, so the new owner completed the second floor of wood in the style of Siberian architecture of the 19th century, abundantly decorating the facades with original ornaments. During the first revolution, an underground printing house was built here. After the October coup, the house was nationalized and converted into a prison dungeon. Later there was a technical school. Today this colorful building is used as one of the museums of the Kuznetsk fortress. The following expositions are presented: “Merchant’s Room” and “Saints of the Kuznetsk Territory”. There is also a workshop for sculpting from clay, where master classes are regularly held.

Transfiguration Cathedral

The story began with a chapel erected on this site in 1618. Then the first wooden temple was built here, later the second. From 1792 to 1835, a majestic stone cathedral was erected on the same prayer site. In 1919 there was a fire, after repairs served only on the first floor. In 1935, the temple was looted, the bells were broken, the crosses were destroyed. Then a school for collective farmers, later a bakery, was arranged in the building. In 1989, the ruins of the cathedral were transferred to the church. In 2004, the restoration of this oldest ensemble of Kuznetsk was completed. The temple received new wall paintings, iconostasis, marble floors with heating. At the local factory, crosses were made, gilded heads were covered. The main shrines are antique icons of the 17th-19th centuries.

Address: Novokuznetsk, Waterfall Street, 18.

Sergius1953 writes a review: “what did not survive this cathedral: it was a bakery, later a warehouse, they even wanted to turn it into an organ hall. And in the end, spirituality won: it was reborn from the ruins like a Phoenix bird, and it became even more elegant and beautiful. Fyodor Dostoevsky was married in the Odigitrievsky church, which has not been preserved. But here he also came, at that time the cathedral was the tallest building in Kuznetsk. In the late 80’s, it was even scary to walk on it. It is a pity that after the restoration the old frescoes with angels have not been preserved, but the new paintings are also beautiful. “

House-Museum of F.M. Dostoevsky

Fyodor Dostoevsky came into exile in Kuznetsk, but did not stay here for long – only 22 days. Here he married his first muse after her husband died suddenly. The main motive of the museum is interesting details from the life of the writer in Kuznetsk. The exposition is arranged in a two-level wooden house, where the first wife of the writer once rented a room. Exhibits: copies of photographs and archival documents, the diorama of old Kuznetsk, things and objects of that time. The exhibition ends with a dying portrait of Maria Dmitrievna Dostoevskaya, who died of consumption before she reached the age of 40. Also, the guide will tell about the life of people in the 19th century, the tragic love story of the writer and his first wife. In honor of Dostoevsky, the authorities in 1901 renamed Politseyskaya Street, on which this house stands, converted into a writer’s museum in 1980.

Address: Novokuznetsk, Dostoevsky street, 40.

Gard213 writes a review: “After the tour, it seemed as if I had been to a performance in the theater. The love story of a convict writer and a widow is really touching. The story is accompanied by quotations from the works and memoirs of Fyodor Dostoevsky. Visit the museum is not only fans of the writer’s work, but also all lovers of antiquity, pre-revolutionary way of life. A very atmospheric place where time has frozen and it seems that now some stranger from the 19th century will come into the room. “

House of N.S. Baikalova

The branch of the Fyodor Dostoevsky Museum is located in one of the wooden houses of the 19th century, which once belonged to the gold miner N.S. Baikalov. After retiring, Nikolai Stepanovich hanged himself in the attic of this house in 1917. In the courtyard there is a bust of Fyodor Dostoevsky by the local sculptor A.I. Bragin. Today, this building hosts interchangeable exhibitions of different painters and photographers.

Often exhibit the work of children from the local art school, in addition, there are author’s evenings with visiting artists. In one of the halls there are benches where you can rest a little. Museum workers look at visitors as potential thieves, can shout. Antiques are sold at the entrance. I was with a child of 7 years, he liked everything. “

Retropark Museum

Retropark in fact turned out to be an exhibition of old cars, among which there are really unique samples. For example, “Packard” like Stalin or “Cadillac Eldorado”, which the famous singer Elvis Presley bought as a gift for his mother. The first racing cars Austin and Mercedes. Armored “Zil” M.S.Gorbachev, which so loved to ride Raisa Maksimovna. Each specimen has its own amazing story. After the repair, all the exhibits are on the go and look good.

Antonych writes a review: “we thought it would be boring, but it turned out that this is a really cool museum of cars and motorcycles. The car from Formula 1 turned out to be the youngest model – 1995 release. It is better to take an audio guide, since the guide is 10 times more expensive. The machines are polished to shine and well-groomed. The new building of the European level pleasantly pleases with interiors. There is a café where you can have lunch. I recommend to all fans of retrotechnics to visit. “

Museum of Military Equipment

Nearby are the mighty pipes of the plant and a pedestal with a T-34 battle tank. To the left of the library there is a museum of military and labor glory of Kuznetsk metallurgists.

The lecture tells interesting details about the phenomena and laws of physics, the space environment and its study, meteorites and celestial bodies. Then visitors move to the heart of the planetarium – the dome, where the equipment projects the film directly onto the spherical ceiling of the cinema hall, creating the effect of complete immersion.

Camels

In the famous ski resort of Sheregesh there is a ridge of rocks that look like a caravan of camels. Nearby is an operating mine and abandoned adits. Around stretches the nature of unearthly beauty. People come here to ski and enjoy the local landscapes, no wonder Sheregesh is called Siberian Switzerland. In winter, the lift works, and in summer you need to go to the rocks “Camels” in boots, since the terrain is swampy. Siberian flora grows between huge boulders: blueberries, lingonberries, ferns and other plants. Closer to the rocks, the area is completely dotted with stones covered with slippery moss. You need to walk on them carefully, as you can easily slip and break your head.

Andriuga P writes a review: “A week of rides has flown by in Sheregesh. In the last I got on the free-ride tour “Utuya-Camels”. Emotions really go through the roof when you rush from these unusual rocks down the chubby. There are many trails and lifts. It is better to ride in a group or in a pair, so that it is safe. Still, a chubby is not an easy matter. Christmas trees grow right in the rocks. Mountain air and endless ocean of snow – for this they come to Sheregesh. “

Rocks Spassky Palaces

Mysterious rectangles of granite are located in the south-western part of Sheregesh. They are called “Spassky palaces” or “Russian Stonehenge”. These places are suitable for eco-tourism lovers who are not waiting for something special, but simply enjoy the wildlife. The hiking trail is very picturesque – it’s a good place for a day walk or an overnight stay. At the same time, you need to be careful, because wild animals roam around and snakes crawl. The path of 50 km from the resort of Sheregesh to the “Spassky Palaces” takes about one day. You can pay for a jeep tour that lasts 5-7 hours. Wonderful views, birdsong, fresh air and climbing mysterious boulders – this is what summer tourists enjoy in Sheregesh.

Museum of Ethnography and Nature of Mountain Shoria

Mountain Shoria is a region in the south of the Kemerovo region, inhabited by Russians and Shores. In Tashtagol there is a small colorful museum dedicated to the history and culture of the Shor region. The museum lacks space, but this has its own charm: dozens of exhibits fit on one square meter. The exposition includes: costumes, household items, stuffed animals, jewelry, paintings, etc. Many scenes from the life of the ancient Shors are presented. The center of attraction is the crypt of the “Kabyrzin Princess”, recreated according to the original. Its necropolis is not as rich as that of the famous Altai “Princess Ukoka”, but no less interesting. Also impressive is the corner of gold diggers, stuffed horses, shamanic rites and, of course, the Yeti – the main symbol of Mountain Shoria. When visiting the museum, it is better to book an excursion to fully experience the atmosphere of the exhibition and learn many colorful details.

For a small fee, they will tell a lot of interesting information about the life, life and history of the Shor people.

Megaliths of Mountain Shoria

Under Soviet rule, it was impossible to drive to this area because of the numerous checkpoints that were set up by the security services of local camps. After the collapse of the USSR, they were abolished, and the path was open. Megaliths are cyclopean stone blocks of 10-20 meters in length and up to 8 meters in height. The plates are stacked together in the form of masonry. Each of them has a smooth rectangular shape with smooth faces. There is no doubt that such an object in any case could not appear as a result of natural processes of weathering or movement of soils. Geologists compare the Shor megaliths with the pyramids of ancient Egypt or Stonehenge. Groups of researchers with equipment regularly come here, who are trying to find out the origin and other features of these structures. Similar megalithic objects are found in other countries. For example, in Peru, these are the megaliths of Puma Punku. Some “scientists” try to put forward the theory that blocks of flat rectangular shape, folded into a single symmetrical masonry, could be formed during mysterious natural processes in nature. Other researchers noticed a change in the magnetic field in the immediate vicinity of the megaliths. Something inside the phonite, but so far no one has been able to determine the source of the radiation.

         Novokuznetsk is one of the oldest cities in Siberia. It is called the southern capital of Kuzbass. The city is located on the left and right banks of the river Tom. The history of our city is closely connected with the history of joining and development of Siberia by the Russian state.

         Our city didn’t stay aside from the tragic events of Great Patriotic War. The price paid for the Great Victory was high. About 14,500 citizens of Novokuznetsk didn’t return from the fields of war. 55 citizens of Novokuznetsk were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union in Great Patriotic War. Memory of perished soldiers is sacred.

Novokuznetsk is a worker-city, a warrior-city. Kuznetsk steel works was   completely transferred on the issue of quality steel and rolled products for tanks, planes and other weapons. Think over! Almost half of all military production of the country was made from the Kuznetsk armor: they are 50.000 tanks, 45.000 aircrafts and 100 million of shells. 

Novokuznetsk. Native and beloved… Joy and excitement arise at every meeting with this wonderful city. Each street, each monument of architecture — they are as if features of a familiar and dear face. Yet, beside the everyday routine cares we sometimes forget something important. This important feeling is the linkage of times. To feel yourself the heirs of great history- it means having possibility to create the great present, that is, to create history by your own hands. Novokuznetsk is the incarnation, materialized linkage of times. Here our ancestors lived, here we live and our descendants will live. And it is impossible to stop the river of time: the 400th anniversary of our dear city is approaching…

A wooden fort, which appeared in 1618 on the Tom River, became one of the most important supporting posts of the Russian Empire beyond the Urals. Gradually the settlements began to grow around the fortress, and the post of resistance became the town, which since 1622 acquired the name of Kuznetsk.

Also at that time Kuznetsk was awarded the coat of arms with the wolf — symbol of freedom and wastelands. Kuznetsk continued to carry out the functions of fore post — it protected the territory from the invasion of Jungarian and Kyrgyz hordes.

Kuznetsk, a city build manually from wood, with the five towers, became the center of a vast territory. But it has not got significant development until 1930.

New legendary history of the city began along with building the railway to Kuznetsk in 1914 and decision of building Kuznetsk (at that time Telbessky) steel works, made by Russian Government in 1927. In 1930 the first blast furnace foundation was made. At the same time the first stone block of flats was carried out according to the design of an outstanding German architect Ernst Mai.

During the following seventy years the city has acquired its inimitable look, its unique character, expressed in straight light streets, memorable squares and architectural ensembles. The best architects of the country put their wonderful ideas into practice in our city.

The unforgettable monuments and interesting places of Novokuznetsk are Metallurgov avenue, Theater square, V.V. Mayakovsky square architectural ensemble, 25 years of October street houses, Aluminum works palace of culture square, Kirov street, Boulevard of Heroes Memorial and Victory square at Kuznetsk steel works — these is a small part of the national property and pride of Novokuznetsk. In the architecture of buildings and installations one can see wonderful creative decisions, different trends of style from early Soviet classic «constructivism» to ultra-modern installations from glass and concrete. This all is Novokuznetsk.

The city celebrated its 380 anniversary in 1998 by restoration of the defensive structures of the early XIX century, their half-bastions, gate tower and barracks.

The dream of the revolutionary poet V.V. Mayakovsky and thousands of Novokuznetsk citizens about the Garden city is becoming true. In summer the city is sinking in greenery and flowers.

The city Drama Theater, houses of culture and technique, art and ethnography museums, I.P. Bardin Academy museum have become the real universities of arts. Many young citizens have their studies here, acquiring fundamental knowledge and getting accustomed to culture.

The citizens have always loved sport. Thousands of fans attend the ice palaces of sports and sports grounds, built in different areas of the city. The ice-hockey team «Metallurg» is the undoubted favorite of our supporters.

                                             Моя родина – Новокузнецк

Город Новокузнецк является одним из старейших городов в Сибири. Его называют южной столицей Кузбасса. Город расположен на левом и правом берегах реки Томь. История нашего города неразрывно связана с историей присоединения и освоения Сибири Российским государством. 

 Наш город не остался в стороне от трагических событий Великой Отечественной войны. Дорогой ценой оплачена Великая Победа. С полей войны не вернулись почти  14,5 тысяч новокузнечан – горожан. Звание Героя Советского Союза за подвиги во время ВОВ было присвоено 55 новокузнечанам. Память о погибших за Родину воинах – новокузнеченах священна. Новокузнецк  — город труженик,  город воин. На выпуск качественной стали и проката для танков, самолётов и другого оружия был полностью переведён весь Кузнецкий металлургический комбинат. Вдумайтесь! Из кузнецкой брони было изготовлено 50 тысяч танков, 45 тысяч самолетов, 100 миллионов снарядов – почти половина всей военной продукции страны.

Радостные и волнительные чувства возникают при каждой встрече с этим замечательным городом. Каждая улица, каждый архитектурный памятник — словно черты знакомого дорогого лица. Однако за ежедневными будничными заботами подчас забывается что-то очень важное. Это важное — связь времен. Ощущать себя наследниками великой истории — значит иметь возможность создавать великое настоящее, то есть творить историю своими руками. Новокузнецк это воплощение, материализованная связь времен. Здесь жили наши предки, живем мы и будут жить наши потомки. А реку времени не остановить: приближается 400-летний юбилей возникновения любимого города…

Возникший в 1618 году на реке Томь деревянный острог стал одним из важнейших опорных пунктов Российской империи в Зауралье. Постепенно вокруг крепости начал разрастаться посад, и оборонительное сооружение превратилось в город, который с 1622 года стал именоваться Кузнецком.

Тогда же Кузнецку был пожалован герб с изображением волка — символа свободы и необжитого края. Кузнецк продолжал выполнять функции форпоста — он охранял край от набегов киргизов и джунгарских орд.

Кузнецк, «город, рубленный в забор вышиной в сажень около города мерою в 1050 сажень, по стенам пять башен», стал центром обширного края. Однако значительного развития город так и не получил вплоть до 1930 года.

Новая легендарная история города началась с прокладки железной дороги в 1914 году до Кузнецка и с принятия решения о строительстве Кузнецкого (тогда Тельбесского) металлургического завода правительством России в 1927 году. В 1930 году был заложен фундамент первой доменной печи. В то же время происходит застройка города первыми каменными жилыми домами по генеральному плану, созданному выдающимся немецким архитектором и градостроителем Эрнстом Маем.

В течение последующих семидесяти лет город приобрел свой неповторимый облик, свой уникальный характер, выраженный в прямых светлых улицах, запоминающихся площадях и архитектурных ансамблях. Лучшие зодчие страны претворили свои замечательные идеи в нашем городе.

Незабываемые уголки и памятники Новокузнецка — проспекта Металлургов, Театральная площадь, архитектурный ансамбль площади им. В.В. Маяковского, застройка улицы имени 25-летия Октября, площадь у Дворца Алюминьщиков, ансамбль застройки ул. Кирова, мемориал бульвара Героев и площади Побед у КМК — это лишь малая часть национального достояния и гордость Новокузнецка.

В архитектуре зданий и сооружений можно увидеть удивительные профессиональные решения, разнообразные стилевые направления от «конструктивизма» советской классики до суперсовременных сооружений из стекла и бетона. Это все — Новокузнецк.

Реставрацией и реконструкцией оборонительных сооружений начала XIX века, его полубастионов, надвратной башни и солдатских казарм отметил город свой 380-й юбилей в 1998 году.

Мечта революционного поэта В.В. Маяковского и тысячи новокузнечан о создании города-сада сбывается. Летом город утопает в зелени и цветах.

Созданные за эти годы городской Драматический театр, дома культуры и техники, художественные и краеведческие музеи, Музей академии И.П. Бардина превратились в настоящие университеты искусств. Здесь занимаются многие юные горожане, получая фундаментальные знания и приобщаясь к культуре.

Спорт всегда был почитаем горожанами. Тысячи болельщиков посещают ледяные дворцы спорта и спортивные комплексы, созданные в различных районах города. Любимая хоккейная команда «Металлург» — бесспорный фаворит наших болельщиков.

 Приглашаем посетить наш город, увидеть достопримечательности, посидеть в тенистых скверах, прикоснуться к уникальным историческим реликвиям, побывать в доме им. Ф.М. Достоевского, где он встретил свою любовь — Марию Исаеву. Вы сможете побродить по бульвару Героев — любимому месту отдыха и общения новокузнечан. Уверены, что не останется без Вашего внимания и красавица река Томь, обрамленная удивительной сибирской природой.

Словом, вас ждут в этом нашем замечательном городе. Добро пожаловать в Новокузнецк!

В использовании Новокузнецк, крупнейший город Кемеровской области (560 тысяч жителей), называют просто — Кузня. Здесь нужно побывать, чтобы понять, к какому точному определению: хотя отрасль занимает не слишком много места в городском ландшафте, ее присутствие ощущается постоянно. Закрывая глаза здесь, видите ли, как горит огонь, поворачивают приводные колеса, конвейеры ползут, сливается железо. Кажется, будто даже машины, трамваи, прохожие — все это части промышленных цепей. Новокузнецк — настоящий Город Рабочих, и сразу видно, что «продавцы воздуха» здесь не в цене. А среди промышленных гигантов России это, пожалуй, самое огромное: здесь два металлургических промышленных комплекса полного цикла (аналогичные на постсоветском пространстве только в Мариуполе, но там промышленных комплексов меньше), завод ферросплавов, алюминиевый завод и некоторые уголки. История местной металлургии насчитывает всего несколько сотен (как в Уральских горах) и тысячи лет: в Кузнецке долгое время жили полые абинцы или плоские шорцы, которые еще казаки в 17 веке не случайно прозвали «кузнецким народом» — они поставили с железными изделиями половины Великой Степи. Моя история о Новокузнецке будет состоять из трех частей. В третьем мы рассмотрим Старый Кузнецкий, основанный в 1617 году как тюрьму за завоевание Южной Сибири; во втором мы прогуляемся по Садовому городу — к одному из лучших сталинских ансамблей 1930-х годов; ну а первый мы спускаемся на Кузнецкий металлургический комбинат, с которым строился город и стал Новокузнецком.

In use Novokuznetsk, the largest city of the Kemerovo region (560 thousand inhabitants), name simply — Kuznja. It is necessary to visit here to understand, to what exact definition: though the industry takes not too a lot of place in a city landscape, its presence is felt continuously. Closing eyes here, you see, how fire burns, turn приводные wheels, conveyors creep, the fused iron flows. It seems, as if even cars, trams, passers-by — all is parts of industrial chains. Novokuznetsk is a present City of Workers, and at once it is visible that «sellers of air» here not in the price. And among industrial giants of Russia it perhaps, the most huge: here two metallurgical industrial complexes of a full cycle (similar on the post-Soviet territory is only in Mariupol, but there industrial complexes it is less), factory of ferroalloys, aluminium factory and some collieries. The history of local metallurgy totals at all hundreds (as in Ural Mountains), and thousand years: In Kuznetsk a hollow long since lived абинцы, or flat шорцы, which else Cossacks in 17 century have not casually nicknamed «Kuznetsk people» — they supplied with iron products half of Great Steppe. My story about Novokuznetsk will consist of three parts. In the third we will examine Old Kuznetsk based in 1617 as a jail for conquest of Southern Siberia; in the second we will take a walk on the Garden-city — to one of the best Stalin ensembles of 1930th years; well and the first we descend on Kuznetsk metallurgical industrial complex with which construction the city and became Novokuznetsk.
