How do people live in Nikolaevsk-on-Amur, Russia? Small town with a bloody history...
Siberia and the Far East in Russia have traditionally been used for exile of prisoners to concentration camps. The labor of the prisoners was used for the construction of the railway, logging, catching and processing fish, mining of coal and gold.
Today in Nikolaev-on-Amur there is no work. The only way to earn money is poaching (fish).
What do residents and those who moved to Nikolaevsk-on-Amur say about life in the town?
“Dirty and rubbish all around. Drinking among men and women. There is no work. Everything is dying…”
In video you will see how people live in the Russian town Nikolaevsk-on-Amur.
The Most Swedish City in Russia
In the northwest of Russia, on the shore of the Baltic Sea, is one of the most unusual cities in Russia - the city of Vyborg. This city was founded by the Swedes. For 730 years of its existence, this city from the Swedes became part of the Russian Empire, then Finland, then the Soviet Union, then Finland again, and then Russia again. Being a part of each of these countries was reflected in the architecture of Vyborg. We walked through the streets and parks of the city and tried to find surviving evidences of the city's past life.

How do people live in Tyumen, Russia? City of black gold.
Tyumen is Russia's oil and gas capital. 66 millionaires and 1 billionaire live in Tyumen region.
For many years, local authorities have promised residents of Tyumen region to supply gas to their households until 2023. But…. Ordinary people continue to spend huge sums in winter to heat their houses with wood and coal.
Psychologists in Tyumen discourage women from terminating pregnancies and urge them to have children, arguing that Russian soldiers are dying in the war in Ukraine. Russia needs new soldiers. The women of Tyumen do not agree to give birth to children in order to send them to slaughter later. It sounds crazy, but you can read this information on the city website of Tyumen.
Despite the wealth of the Tyumen region, in 2022, a strong increase in syphilis, HIV / AIDS is recorded. The number of deaths from tuberculosis has increased.
In video you will see how people live in the Russian city Tyumen.

距中國最近的俄羅斯城市，僅800米遠，沒護照也能出國，俄羅斯布拉戈維申斯克，Blagoveshchensk，Благовещенск，Russia，The closest Russian city
大家好 歡迎收看 《行影步離》
世界杯為俄羅斯吸引來了無數遊客，甚至連唐僧都來到了現場看球。俄羅斯也成為目前最熱門的旅遊目的地，但你知道嗎？在俄羅斯有一座距離中國最近的城市，只有不到800米的距離，而且還可以免簽去遊玩的。
這就是俄羅斯遠東地區的第三大城市，與我國黑龍江省黑河市僅一江之隔，座落在黑龍江與結雅河交匯處的布拉戈維申斯克（簡稱布市）。
布市是俄羅斯阿穆爾州的首府，也是俄羅斯唯一位於邊境的地方行政中心，同時也是著名的西伯利亞大鐵路的最後一站，但整體城市中並沒有很多高樓大廈，更多的是一種異域田園的色彩。
堤壩是布市最美的地方，這座2013年洪水過後重新建設的沿江堤壩，也是市民遊客們散步遊玩的最佳地點，不僅有非常多的俄羅斯美女，堤岸沿線還散落著許多精緻的小景觀。
眼前這座建築是2005年重新建成的俄版凱旋門，凱旋門的後面則是紀念二戰遇難者的勝利廣場，而整座城市最著名的景點就是這座報喜大教堂，當然阿穆爾州歷史博物館也是不容錯過的地方。
在這個俄羅斯城市中你會發現，有很多中國人和中國餐館，因為自2004年以來，布市和黑河市之間就有了一個免簽證制度，即使沒有護照也可以過境游玩，不僅布市的銀行支持人民幣結算，而且在布市也同樣有中國的手機信號。
其實在100多年前，布市曾是中國的領土，而且一直有一個中國名字叫海蘭泡。
最早來到布市定居的俄國人是1644年的一隻探險隊，他們在1689年中俄《尼布楚條約》之後才離開。直到1856年，俄國在這裡建了一個軍事哨所，這被認為是布市的創建起始點。但在兩年後的（1858年）《璦琿條約》之後，海蘭泡被俄國割佔並以報喜教堂之名改名為報喜，也就是現在的布拉戈維申斯克。
光在1894年的一年中，這個地區附近就挖出了13噸黃金，到20世紀初布市已經是金屬加工貿易的中心，並發展成為了一座商業城市。這期間中國商人的貢獻功不可沒。
如今，布市對岸的黑河市已將“愛輝”兩個字改回曆史上的“璦琿”，銘記歷史，發展未來。
夏季是到黑河避暑旅遊的最佳時間，而黑河與布市之間的聯繫也是越來越緊密，10分鐘就可出國領略歐陸風情，你想去轉轉嗎？

A day in Razdolna, Alaska (Homer area town)
Overlooking a stunning bay, Razdolna is a small hamlet on Kenai Peninsula, home to about 30 Old Believers Orthodox families. An unincorporated community, it has no businesses at all except the local elementary school. Local residents are somewhat detached from the nearby larger town of Homer but are closer to the neighbor Old Believers town of Voznesenka.
Views in Razdolna are amazing, huge slope opens a beautiful vista to the Kachemak Bay, there's a plenty of wildlife, you can spot moose steps almost everywhere in town. I spent a few hours in this nice little village and took many pictures that wanted to share here.
Thank you for watching and enjoy!
Alaska: Part of America That Used to Be Russian | Orthodox Churches and Indigenous People
Alaska - the 49th and most Russian state of America. Russians sold it to the USA as an exhausted territory in the 19th century. Later, when oil and gold reserves were discovered here, Russian migrants started coming back. I traveled to Alaska to visit Old Believers communities and meet with indigenous people who practice Orthodox Christianity and look for their relatives in Chukotka. Let's see how Alaska has changed since the sale and how locals feel about the Russian heritage.

Novosibirsk, Russia - Property Pinpoint Vlog Ep 9
I do not work in Russia but I have family here and I want show you a bit of what Novosibirsk, the 3rd largest city in Russia is like.
Once crusty and impersonal, Novosibirsk is now the capital of Siberia and has opened its doors to the world. With a slew of interesting museums and monuments, a relaxed big-city vibe, and a wealth of great accommodation at both the high and low ends make Novosibirsk a worthwhile Trans-Siberian pitstop.
The city grew up in the 1890s around the Ob River bridge built for the Trans-Siberian Railway, and the city is festooned with original examples of the wood-lace architecture that prevailed at the time before the Soviets took over and started chucking concrete everywhere. Named Novo-Nikolaevsk until 1925 for the last tsar, it grew rapidly into Russia's third largest city and a key industrial and transport centre exploiting coalfields to the east and mineral deposits in the Urals.

The Amur River by Colin Thubron
The former recipient of the Edward Stanford Award for Outstanding Contribution to Travel Writing, Colin Thubron introduces his new book 'The Amur River'.
In his 80th year, Colin Thubron made a dramatic and ambitious journey along the 3000-mile river that divides China and Russia.
The Amur River is almost unknown. Yet it is the tenth longest river in the world, rising in the Mongolian mountains and flowing through Siberia to the Pacific. For 1,100 miles it forms the tense border between Russia and China. Haunted by the memory of land-grabs and unequal treaties, this is the most densely fortified frontier on earth.
'The Amur River' charts Thubron’s journey from the river’s secret source to its giant mouth, covering almost 3,000 miles. Harassed by injury and by arrest from the local police, he makes his way along both the Russian and Chinese shores, starting out by Mongolian horse, then hitchhiking, sailing on poacher's sloops or travelling the Trans-Siberian Express. Having revived his Russian and Mandarin, he talks to everyone he meets, from Chinese traders to Russian fishermen, from monks to indigenous peoples. By the time he reaches the river's desolate end, where Russia's nineteenth-century imperial dream petered out, a whole, pivotal world has come alive.
Offering a unique perspective of two of the world’s superpowers via the story of the Amur, 'The Amur River' is a shining masterpiece by the acknowledged laureate of travel writing, an urgent lesson in history and the culmination of an astonishing career.
Published by Chatto & Windus, Vintage available at Stanfords for £20:
Stanfords is delighted to welcome Colin Thubron to The Conduit in conversation with fellow Peter Frankopan on Thursday 30th September 2021.

Don't Make This MISTAKE When Booking Your Alaska Land And Sea Cruisetour! #shorts
A lot of people ask whether they should do a land tour before or after their Alaska cruise. I have my preference, but you may have your own.
Generally ports and glaciers are the draw of an Alaska cruise. The wildlife and scenery is stunning and generally people want to explore the port towns off the ship as much as possible. This calls for long, active days in port.
The land tours are jam-packed with activities and early mornings. You have early morning meeting time for excursions, transfers to train rides, and possibly a 6am start to a Denali guided bus sightseeing tour one day.
I prefer to get up early at the beginning of the trip and then have an opportunity to relax a bit more on the ship with glacier viewing days.
If you would like some help planning a trip, you know how to reach me! I’m happy to help, especially after spending 5 weeks in Alaska in 2022.
