I live in Russia. I was born here and I am the citizen of this country. I love it very much and I wouldn’t change it for any other place.

Russia is an enigma for the major part of the world. Everybody knows that it is a vast, spacious country. It occupies the territory of 17,075.4 thousand square km. The population of Russia is more than 200 mln people. Except Russians, people of more than 100 nationalities live in this country. All the foreigners know aboutSiberia, they heard about its severe climate and they are afraid of Russian frosts very much.

Russia is situated both in Europe and Asia. Russia has always attracted of the leading countries of the world. First of all because of its historical roots which are closely connected with the names of Peter the First, Ekaterina the Second, and new ones such as Lenin, Stalin, etc. Then, as everybody knows, Russia occupies almost one sixth of the earth.

In the East Russia is washed by the Pacific Ocean with its seas: the Sea of Okhotsk and the Bering Sea. In the North Russia is washed by the Arctic Ocean with its seas which are the Barents Sea, the Kara Sea and the Laptev Sea. In the South the country has the exit to the Black Sea and some Russian cities, such as Kerch, Sochi are situated on the Black Sea coast. Russia borders on Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Poland and Byelorus in the West. It borders on Ukraine, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia and China in the South.

The major part of the country has a modified continental climate. Russia is rich in mineral and natural resources, such as gold, oil, natural gas, iron, diamonds, coal, etc. Russia is rich in water resource too. There are many rivers, such as the Volga, the Lena, the Yenisey, and many unique lakes, for example the Baikal which has the world’s cleanest water.

That is why Russia occupies a very important place in the world history, economy, culture.

The capital of Russia is Moscow. The largest cities of Russia are Saint-Petersburg, Kazan, Rostov, Ekaterinburg, Novosybirsk, Krasnodar and other.

Moscow

Moscow is the capital of Russia. It is one of the biggest and most beautiful cities in the world. Moscow is a modern city now. The population of the city is about 9.8 million people. Moscow is a political centre, where the government of our country works. Moscow was founded in 1147 by Yuri Dolgoruky. The total area of Moscow is about nine hundred square kilometres.

We say that Moscow is a port of five seas, as the Moscow—Volga Canal links Moscow with the Baltic, White, Caspian and Black seas and the Sea of Azov.

Moscow is an industrial centre too. There are many factories and plants in it. One of the best-known plants produces many lorries, and the other one produces cars.

The Bolshoi Theatre is one of the famous theatres all over the world. If you are fond of painting you can go to the Tretyakov Art Gallery or to the Pushkin Fine Arts Museum and see a lot of interesting portraits and landscapes there. We say that the Tretyakov Art Gallery is a treasure-house of Russian art. Young people like to visit the Central Military Museum. There are many tanks, guns and war documents there.

One can see the Kremlin and Red Square in the city. There are many fine buildings, wide streets, green parks, large squares, churches and monuments in Moscow.

It is necessary to mention such famous monuments as monuments to the great Russian writer Alexander Pushkin and to the first Russian printer Ivan Fedorov.

Visiting the capital a lot of foreigners from all over the world come to see these monuments.

One of the highest buildings in Moscow is the State Moscow University. It was founded in 1755 by the great scientist Mikhail Lomonosov.

Transport. Moscow is a very big city, and its transport must be comfortable and fast.

One can see a lot of cars, buses, trolley-buses, trams in the streets of our city. The Moscow metro began its work on the 15th of May, 1935. There were 13 stations at that time. Now it has 190 stations. Our metro is a beautiful and convenient one.

There are nine railway stations in Moscow and five airports around the city.

There are many stadiums in Moscow. The Central Stadium is in Luzhniki. Many competitions and football matches are held there.

The Olympic village was built for the 22nd Olympic Games in Moscow in 1980. It is a big complex for sport games.

I live in Moscow and I am proud of this city.
