Winter holiday is over. School has begun. But I will remember my last winter holiday for a long time. I went on a fantastic trip in January. My mum and I went to the third capital of our country, the city of Kazan. It's the city of contrasts, the crossroads of two worlds-the West and the East. Really it's a place where the West peacefully exists side by side with the East. We went to Kazan by train. It's more comfortable than going by bus and less expensive than going by plane. The city is on the left bank of the Volga, eight hundred kilometres from Moscow. One night on the train and we found ourselves in the capital of Tatarstan. The guide told us that more than 2 million people visit Kazan every year. More than one million people live in Kazan. (It ranks six in Russia) The weather was fine. All the time it was only about seven degrees below zero. We saw a lot of interesting sights but most of all I was impressed by the Kremlin, where there is a marvelous muslim mosque, and nearby the 16th-century cathedral with the Spasskaya Tower; and the Palace of the President of Tatarstan and much more.We went on an excursion "The Evening Kazan" and saw beautifully decorated with New Year illumination fairy-tale capital of Tatarstan. There are а lot of museums, theatres, stadiums and other places of entertainment. I liked the city very much.
New Year is a great holiday in our country. Everybody likes it very much. It is especially loved by little children. People do not go to work on that day, and children do not go to school. This holiday is considered to be a family holiday. It is usually celebrated at home among the members of the family.
People decorate their houses and usually have a fir-tree which stands in the corner of the room. Those fir-trees are very beautiful. The presents are usually put under these trees. Our parents prepare to this holiday well. They buy a New Year tree, decorate it, buy a lot of tasty food and drinks.
At twelve o’clock in the night people can see the president on TV which addresses them with traditional words of congratulation. At this time people are sitting at the tables to their holiday dinner and enjoy it in a good company. Young people usually organize a dance party and have a lot of fun. Some of them go out into the streets and the squares. The next day friends usually come to wish a Happy New Year to all the members of the family.
The New Year of our life has begun. Everyone hopes it will really be happy.
