I live on the very edge of Siberia in Omsk, it is very cold here in winter and very hot in summer. The climate here is sharply continental.

Abrupt changes in weather, sharp winds are constantly observed, but last summer a huge spherical monument, which stands on the embankment, was demolished from a hurricane, and there was significant destruction in the city.

Our city has a lot of interesting things, and if you come, I can show a lot. In the very heart, in the center of the city, there is a fire tower, at the top of which a monument to the fireman stands day and night. On the main street of Lenin, and earlier it was called Lyubinsky Avenue, a monument to a girl named Lyuba sits on the street both in winter and in summer.

She is very beautiful and all tourists always take pictures with her, because this is one of the main attractions.

Also in Omsk there are many museums, theaters and parks. One of my favorite and largest: Victory Park. In spring this is one of the most charming places in the city, because white and black swans fly to the Irtysh, which is, however, strange, given our climate.

We have a beautiful city, probably one of the primordially beautiful cities in Russia, once upon a time Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoevsky himself lived here, like the Decembrists with their wives. Soon Omsk will be 300 years old and the celebration will be grandiose! I'll be waiting for you. Bye. Olya.
