Imagens da cidade de Grozny , Chechênia - Rússia
Grózni (em russo Гро́зный, transl. Grozny, em checheno Solj Ghaala) é a capital da Chechénia. Sua população em 2002 era de 223 mil habitantes. Situa-se nas margens do rio Sunzha, afluente da margem direita do rio Terek.Grózni foi fundada em 1818 e cresceu devagar até aos início do século XX. Mais tarde tornou-se num importante centro industrial. A cidade situa-se no centro geométrico dos campos petrolíferos da Rússia.
A cidade pode ser dividida em quatro zonas: Lenínski, Zavodskoi - ambas áreas residênciais, Staroprompslovski e Oktiábrski - onde se situa a zona industrial. Contudo, Grózni foi quase completamente destruída ou seriamente danificada durante as guerras na Chechénia.
A cidade tinha uma universidade e era a sede do clube FC Terek Grozny.
Grózni foi capturada pelo exército russo durante a primeira guerra na Chechénia, mas as operações da guerrilha a partir das montanhas conseguiu provocar a retirada daquelas em 1996. Desde a segunda guerra chechena que Grózni voltou a estar sobre controlo russo.

Путешествие по Кавказу продолжается. На этот раз нас ждет Чечня. Мы отправляемся в город Грозный.
Мы посетим вместе с вами Грозный-Сити и поднимемся на смотровую площадку Грозный-Сити. Посетим мечеть Сердце Чечни. Посмотрим, что осталось от Английского замка. Посетим парк цветов в центре города Грозный и узнаем, какой необычный флеш-моб был организован здесь несколько лет назад. А ещё совершим путешествие в прошлое и увидим, какой была площадь Минутка до начала войны.
Чеченская республика. Грозный - 2021.
Поезд 382 ЯA Москва - Грозный. Обзор вагон СВ, вагон-ресторан, туалет - что самое ужасное
Сутки в поезде с чеченцами - поездка на Кавказ прошла отлично! Какой поезд самый комфортный и насколько безопасно ехать в Чечню, мы решили выяснить на собственном опыте. В этом обзоре поезд Москва - Грозный. Он идёт через многие города, в том числе Рязань, Воронеж, Ростов-на-Дону, Армавир, Невинномысск, Минеральные воды, Моздок. В поездной бригаде работает много жителей Чечни и самого Грозного. И если к обслуживанию в вагоне-ресторане осталось много вопросов, то нашей проводнице большая благодарность за отличную работу и приятное общение!

A traditional yurt (from the Turkic languages) or ger (Mongolian) is a portable, round tent covered with skins or felt and used as a dwelling by several distinct nomadic groups in the steppes of Central Asia. The structure comprises an angled assembly or latticework of pieces of wood or bamboo for walls, a door frame, ribs (poles, rafters), and a wheel (crown, compression ring) possibly steam-bent. The roof structure is often self-supporting, but large yurts may have interior posts supporting the crown. The top of the wall of self-supporting yurts is prevented from spreading by means of a tension band which opposes the force of the roof ribs. Modern yurts may be permanently built on a wooden platform; they may use modern materials such as steam-bent wooden framing or metal framing, canvas or tarpaulin, Plexiglas dome, wire rope, or radiant insulation.

Yurt – originally from a Turkic word referring to the imprint left in the ground by a moved yurt, and by extension, sometimes a person's homeland, kinsmen, or feudal appanage. The term came to be used in reference to the physical tent-like dwellings only in other languages. In modern Turkish the word yurt is used as the synonym of homeland or a dormitory. In Russian the structure is called yurta (юрта), whence the word came into English.
Yurts have been a distinctive feature of life in Central Asia for at least three thousand years. It is suggested that the Indo-European nomads (mostly Slavic and Indo-Iranians) were the first that used yurts and similar tents in Central Asia and parts of Russia and the Ukraine. The first written description of a yurt used as a dwelling was recorded by the ancient Greek historian Herodotus. He described yurt-like tents as the dwelling place of the Scythians, a horse riding-nomadic nation who lived in the northern Black Sea and Central Asian region from around 600 BC to AD 300.
Traditional yurts consist of an expanding wooden circular frame carrying a felt cover. The felt is made from the wool of the flocks of sheep that accompany the pastoralists. The timber to make the external structure is not to be found on the treeless steppes, and must be obtained by trade in the valleys below.
The frame consists of one or more expanding lattice wall-sections, a door-frame, bent roof poles and a crown. The Mongolian Ger has one or more columns to support the crown and straight roof poles. The (self-supporting) wood frame is covered with pieces of felt. Depending on availability, felt is additionally covered with canvas and/or sun-covers. The frame is held together with one or more ropes or ribbons. The structure is kept under compression by the weight of the covers, sometimes supplemented by a heavy weight hung from the center of the roof. They vary with different sizes, and relative weight. They provide a surprisingly large amount of insulation and protection from the outside cold of winters, and they are easily changed to keep the yurts cool for summertime.
A yurt is designed to be dismantled and the parts carried compactly on camels or yaks to be rebuilt on another site. Complete construction takes around 2 hours.
The traditional decoration within a yurt is primarily pattern-based. These patterns are generally not according to taste, but are derived from sacred ornaments with certain symbolism. Symbols representing strength are among the most common, including the khas (swastika) and four powerful beasts (lion, tiger, garuda, and dragon), as well as stylized representations of the five elements (fire, water, earth, metal, and wood), considered to be the fundamental, unchanging elements of the cosmos. Such patterns are commonly used in the home with the belief that they will bring strength and offer protection.
Repeating geometric patterns are also widely used. The most widespread geometric pattern is the continuous hammer or walking pattern (alkhan khee). Commonly used as a border decoration, it represents unending strength and constant movement. Another common pattern is the ulzii, a symbol of long life and happiness. The khamar ugalz (nose pattern) and ever ugalz (horn pattern) are derived from the shape of the animal's nose and horns, and are the oldest traditional patterns.
