Navashino
We live in a small
provincial town in central Russia. Our town is not big, it`s among the
thousands of other towns of the Russian Federation. Our country is huge, but
every place of it is unique, dear to the hearts of the citizens. The town we
are going to speak to the world is called Navashino. It is in Nizhegorodskaya
region. It stands on the river Oka, one of the most famous and significant
Russian rivers.
Unfortunately our
town Navashino is not famous around the world. But we want it to be well – known
not only in the Russian Federation but also abroad. I think English can help
us to do it, because the English language is international, it is the means of
learning the world. Our town was founded in 1957 from the coalition of two
settlements Mordovshikovo and Lipnya. It has a railway which makes its geographical
position more favorable.
The neighboring
towns are Viksa and Kulebaki. But they do not have such advantages. Besides, Navashino
is located on the border with Vladimir region on the bank of the Oka River.
Another town with a great historical importance, Murom is the nearest one. Everybody
knows Ilya Muromets , the hero of the Russian legends , tales.
We are proud of
our town. It is small but very cozy and clean. The streets are straight and
wide. The population of Navashino is 20 thousand people.
But especially we
want to tell about a recreational area around the village Dedovo. It is one of
the most attractive places in our area. We have a beautiful lake with pure
crystal water – Svyato. The lake is called Svyato because there is a legend.
People say that a church sаnk
in the middle of this place. A wonderful lake appeared instead of that church.
The lake is surrounded by green trees: pines, birches, fir – trees. People call
the forest – “Muromskiye lesa». The forest is thick and rich.
Not far from the
lake there is a church. And around the lake we have children summer camp, a
tourist camp, a camp for kindergartens. The citizens of Navashino like to spend
their free time in Dedovo.
So we could say
that Navashino deserves to be known not only in N. Novgorod region but also in
the whole Russia and abroad. We would like tourists
come to Navashino and see everything with
their own eyes!
