Perm is an excellent example of a city (and, frankly, there are not many of them in Russia), which, with the help of its residents and assistants, completed the “reset” on time and in full. If you don’t mind, the members of the Parma KVN team were responsible for “public relations” at the beginning of the 2000s: the now famous actress Svetlana Permyakova, director Zhanna Kadnikova, actor Nikolai Naumov, stand-up comedians and perhaps the main creatives of the famous TV channel Oleg Vereshchagin and Gabriel Gordeev. In the 2010s, some of these cheerful and extraordinary people, united in a creative group, created the television series "Real Boys", which shocks the "correct" moviegoers both with the theme and the special way of filming and presenting, and causes a storm of the most controversial statements from critics. At the same time, a considerable part of the country's population, in principle, recognizes that there is such a city.

Despite the plot about a young man who cares little about his moral character, the series is officially recognized as a cultural heritage of the Perm Territory. At the same time, recognition happened after the local “cultural revolution”. Because in Perm, in terms of culture, they care not only about innovators. The city maintains architectural monuments in good condition. Active theaters hold world-famous festivals. New sculptures appear regularly - a tribute to the memory of significant events and great personalities of the Kama region. They say that hotels are rarely idle here. What the Localway editors invite you to check, and at the same time, even though the city was built very logically - wide streets run parallel to the Kama, and cozy lanes connect them - it presents to your attention its own, convenient route through Perm, which knows how to surprise.

Bakery/Pastry Shop, Cafe

We will start our day at the Lemon Tree Confectionery Cafe. The most popular morning positions here, of course, are fresh cereals - rice, semolina, oatmeal or corn. We especially recommend the latter. It is boiled with cream, served with pumpkin seeds and, of course, an essential attribute - a fresh bun with butter and berry jam. The result is an excellent, tasty and healthy breakfast, which will allow you not to be distracted by thoughts about food until lunchtime!

Sight

Now is the time to cheer up, breathe in the fresh river air and recharge with positive impressions for the next day. To do this, we will get to the Kama embankment, where the first point of our route for the development of Perm is located. The art object "Happiness is not far off" appeared here in 2009, thanks to the "cultural revolution" taking place in the city under the leadership of the gallery owner Marat Gelman. The creator of "Perm happiness" was the artist Boris Matrosov.

Big red letters, forming such a life-affirming slogan, have become one of the most popular objects for photo shoots, and simply a must-see place for every tourist. Also, this inscription became known throughout the country, appearing in the frames of the film “The Geographer Drank the Globe Away” with Konstantin Khabensky in the title role, as well as in the popular comedy series “Real Boys”.

From the embankment we will walk along 25 Let Oktyabrya Street, turn onto Lenina Street, and here we are in front of Gribushin's house - an architectural monument of the 19th century and one of the most beautiful buildings in Perm. By the way, this house is supposedly depicted in Boris Pasternak's novel "Doctor Zhivago" as a "house with figures." The building was erected in 1895-1897, by order of the official Kashperov. The Art Nouveau mansion was designed by the architect A.B. Turchevich, the author of numerous buildings in the Urals. Stunning stucco decoration appeared here already under another owner - merchant S.M. Gribushin. The exquisite interior and façade decorations were created by the self-taught artist Pyotr Agaf'in. At one time, this building was a popular salon, within the walls of which all the creative intelligentsia of Perm gathered. The Gribushin family lived here until 1919. Then a garrison officer's shop, a military hospital, and a children's hospital were located here.

Today, the Perm Scientific Center of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences is located here, and, like a century ago, chamber music concerts are held every month in the main living room of the mansion.

Theatre, Opera & Ballet

Further along Lenin Street we move towards the Theater Square and in ten minutes we find ourselves in front of the largest theater in the city - the Perm State Academic Opera and Ballet Theater. P.I. Tchaikovsky. The building, designed specifically for the theater, was erected in the 70s of the XIX century and is an architectural monument of late Russian classicism. The well-known Perm architect Rudolf Karvovsky worked on the construction project. In 1957-1959, a large-scale restoration of the building was carried out, which made it possible to increase its area by one and a half times, while maintaining its original appearance.

One of the oldest theaters in the country proudly bears the name of the genius of Russian classics P.I. Tchaikovsky, all of whose musical and dramatic creations - 10 operas and 3 ballets - were presented on the Perm stage. Today, the theater's repertoire includes masterpieces of world opera and ballet, as well as undeservedly forgotten musical canvases. At the same time, the theater has always been distinguished by a non-standard approach to staging works of academic art, the development of modern material, bright and large-scale art projects.

Going out onto Sibirskaya Street and walking 200 meters towards the Square named after. Reshetnikov, we find ourselves near the old building of the former hotel "Royal Rooms". This three-story residential building, which is an example of Art Nouveau architecture, was built back in 1910, and its original owner was a rich timber merchant Vasily Ivanovich Korolev, after whom the hotel was named. It should be noted that it was one of the most comfortable hotels in the city, distinguished by a high level of technical equipment for that time: electricity was provided here, running water and water heating functioned. There was also a first-class restaurant in the hotel. Naturally, the guests of the institution were very important persons. The Royal Numbers received great fame at a difficult and turning point for the country. In 1918, the younger brother of Nicholas II, Grand Duke Mikhail Alexandrovich, who was exiled in the Perm province, lived here. On the night of June 12-13, a representative of the Romanov dynasty was secretly kidnapped from a hotel and killed. A memorial plaque installed on the facade testifies to the stay in the house of Mikhail Alexandrovich. The hotel existed here in the 1920s, Vladimir Mayakovsky stayed in its chambers. Then the building was converted into a hostel for employees of the Perm Opera and Ballet Theatre.

Sight

On June 12, 2009, a symbol depicted on the coat of arms of Perm was installed near the Ural Hotel, opposite the Central Department Store. Even on its first version, approved by Catherine II on July 17, 1783, a silver bear was depicted, which meant the wild disposition of the inhabitants, on the back of the animal there was a gospel and a silver cross - enlightenment through Christianity. The bear, as a symbol of natural wealth, “lived” on the coat of arms until 1967, and in 1998 it returned in artistic performance.

The walking bear covers an area of ​​3.5 square meters. The total weight of the monument is 3.5 tons. The authors of the project joke that the idea of ​​the sculpture is based on the idea of ​​foreigners that bears are walking along the streets of Russian cities. The artist is a member of the Union of Artists of Russia and the International Association of Arts of UNESCO, a monumental sculptor, a native of Nizhny Tagil Vladimir Pavlenko. Immediately after installation, the Permian bear became popular with adults and children. Tourists are photographed hugging a bear and riding on it. The newlyweds ask for family happiness by rubbing the clubfoot's shiny nose.

On April 1, 2006, an unusual two-part sculpture appeared near house 27 on Komsomolsky Prospekt (Prikamye Hotel). The old apparatus of the photographer's figure is aimed at a pedestal about two meters high with a round frame with large ears, in which you can put your face and take a memorable picture. It is believed that the monument "Permyak Salty Ears" is now the most famous landmark of the city. It is more often found on postcards and magnets with views of Perm.

Russkiy Mir magazine once called the composition the strangest monument in the country. Although the roots of the creation of a genre figure by Rustam Ismagilov go down in history. The traditional occupation of the region is commercial salt production. The workers were forced to carry large sacks of salt on their shoulders. A heavy burden often touched the ears, contact with salt caused skin irritation - and the ears became large and red. So the nickname "Permyak salty ears" was assigned to the old workaholics of Perm, and thanks to such sights, today's travelers can take pictures at the unusual pedestal as a keepsake and learn interesting facts from history.

The next point of our route is Sibirskaya, 33. Here, in the house on the corner of Bolshaya Yamskaya and Sibirskaya streets, the famous Sergei Diaghilev spent his happy youth.

Permians lovingly call it "grandma rotunda", because it is one of the main attractions of the recognized cultural capital of the Urals. The rotunda was built in 1824 in honor of the arrival of Emperor Alexander I in Perm: the monarchs rarely visited county towns, so they carefully prepared for such a meeting. In addition to putting the streets and facades in order, they built a beautiful gazebo designed by the architect Sviyazev. There is even a commemorative plaque on the roof with the inscription: “To the Perm Society. September 24th, 1824.

The "gift" to the monarch is a structure of twelve columns, which are crowned with a semicircular roof with a forged metal spire in the middle. The columns and the roof are decorated with intricate carvings. Rotunda is located in the center of the park. Gorky, which once had the status of a country garden. From a distance it seems that the white building is made of stone. But in fact, the rotunda is wooden, which at one time caused a strong dilapidation of the gazebo. Fortunately, talented restorers managed to restore the monument to its original grand appearance.

Having delved into history, let's return to the present. And the fastest way to do this is to drive a couple of stops on public transport along Komsomolsky Prospekt towards Belinsky Street. Built by 1953 in the style of "Stalinist monumentalism", the corner tower with a spire ending was conceived as the main building of the university in Perm. But at the end of four years of construction, the building was handed over to the State Security Committee. A ballistic laboratory settled on the first floor of the building, in which experts shot the seized weapons. It is believed that the residents of the city passing by thought: without trial they shoot at the arrested. One way or another, Permians can tell more than one legend about the “tower of death”. Innocent people were allegedly tortured within the walls of the building, convicts were thrown from the top floor directly into the courtyard, and underground passages lead from the prison to other “terrible” places - the old Yegoshikha cemetery and a real prison - and all the builders were killed upon completion of the work in order to classify what was happening inside house number 74 on Komsomolsky prospect.

There is another version of the origin of the original name for the departmental building: in the Soviet years, there was a cinema not far from here, in which the foreign film "Death Tower" was shown. The poster prompted the residents of the original version. One way or another, but the history of this skyscraper has become a big part of the Perm rumor - it even received a literary continuation. In 1997, the story of the local prose writer A. Subbotin "The Tower of Death" was published, in which the mysterious building becomes the main scene of phantasmagoric events in the spirit of popular anti-utopias.

The combination of two natural zones - forest-steppe and taiga - made the Perm Territory an amazingly beautiful place. Plus, part of the Ural Range and the majestic full-flowing Kama make its landscapes very diverse and suitable for various types of tourism. Hiking in the taiga, climbing, visiting caves, river rafting and skiing are available to guests of the region in the corresponding seasons. Winters here are snowy, but not severe, summers are quite hot, but without sweltering heat. There are also plenty of entertainment options for those who love a relaxing holiday. You can visit a lot of architectural sights, museums - historical and ethnographic, fish in abundant lakes and rivers, visit numerous festivals that are regularly held here.

stone city

This is an array of sandstone, which over thousands of years the wind has turned into a cluster of massive pillars-outliers. Before that, a river had worked on the natural architecture, punching arches and crevices in the rocks, making the natural formation surprisingly similar to a man-made city. By analogy, the gorges are called streets, and individual rocks have their own names. The locals called the attraction the Devil's Hillfort.


Khokhlovka

There are 23 objects of wooden architecture brought from all over the region, located on 35 hectares of an open-air museum near the banks of the Kama.

Blue lakes of Aleksandrovsk

The place is quite crowded, but still wild. It is quite easy to meet local animals here, so you need to be more careful - bears are found here.


Steam Locomotive Cemetery

The remote station Shumkovo in the middle of the forest became a reserve base for steam locomotives. Previously, it was a secret base for the conservation of rolling stock in case of war, but in the nineties it was abandoned. There are dozens of locomotives here and it is not forbidden to personally examine them, pull the levers and look into the boilers. Train cars put on a seasonal joke are also driven here, but access to them is prohibited, there is security.


White Sea Berezniki

But the lake is not poisonous, according to the assurances of the locals, seagulls with unusual, painted in pale pink color, feathers live here.


Perm Cathedral Mosque

The mosque was built in 1903 at the expense of Perm Muslims, including several Tatar merchant families. The peculiarity of the building is in a mixture of oriental and Russian motifs in the external design. As a building for religious purposes, it was used until 1937, later - as a warehouse. In the nineties, the building was returned to the Muslim community, now it is the main place of worship for believers in Perm.


Holy Trinity Stefanov Monastery

The history of the monastery began with the consecration of a small church in 1790. Over time, the dilapidated wooden building was replaced by a majestic temple, which was given the rank of a cathedral. In the post-revolutionary period, the premises were transferred to the city bakery for storage, in the nineties the building was returned to the church, restored to its original appearance. Now an icon-painting workshop operates at the monastery, where future artists are trained.


Man-made canal Kopan

The canal was dug out to provide the Stroganovs Ocher ironworks with water as a source of energy for mechanisms powered by a water wheel. True, the project failed, although the work was titanic: the passage was made by hand in the rocks. Now it is a popular tourist attraction, as its bed is a cascade of artificial waterfalls with a complex wall that is attractive to rock climbers.


Vakutin stone

The rock itself is not particularly remarkable, it is climbed for the sake of the stunning panorama that opens from it. View of a huge round clearing formed by a loop of the Irgina River and a forest hanging over it. A breathtaking illusion of free flight is created.

An art object by Boris Matrosov that has become a symbol of Perm. This optimistic phrase is reproduced in huge red letters on the Kama embankment. After being dumped from the reservoir, the inscription was one-third flooded, which made it very popular. The site regularly suffers from vandals and boat drivers, but is constantly being restored.

Sergeev, having examined the entrance grotto (the grotto of the Pioneers), at its end found a strong draft of air from a crevice between the blocks. In 1963, after excavating the rubble, local schoolchildren found themselves in a new part of the cave. They saw a high gallery, on the floor of which were many bones of cave bears. The bones were stacked in pairs, and the skulls, with holes below the eye sockets, faced the exit.

Flint arrowheads and spears were dug out in the ashes. In the Cave of Secrets, at least a thousand cave bears were sacrificed.

Scientists have established that more than 37,000 years ago a small cave bear lived here. Later, a large cave bear appeared. In different places, it became extinct at different times, and, judging by the date, one of its latest populations in the world was in the Tyne Cave zone.

Bones are still found here.

Archaeological monuments of the Bardym region

Currently, there are 45 archaeological sites in the Bardym region. These monuments represent the most ancient layer of the history of the population of the Bardym land, which cover a significant chronological period from the Stone Age to the Iron Age.

Most archaeological sites are located on the right (high) bank of the Tulva River. Settlements - the habitats of ancient people - were located on high capes, had a defensive system (ditch, rampart). In some cases, the defense system was complex and consisted of several ramparts and ditches. So the site of Kudashevsky I settlement (Bakintau) was surrounded by eight ramparts. It is no coincidence that the territory of the monument is known among the local population as "Devil's Mountain". The settlements of the ancient people were arranged on natural high places, using the relief of a certain area. For example, the Krasnoyarsk I settlement is located on a natural high hill, which stands out significantly from the rest. The fortified settlements of the region are divided into settlements with dwellings and settlements-shelters, in which a person did not live permanently, but used it temporarily in case of danger. There are three settlements-shelters in the Bardymsky district: Kudashevskoye, Sarashevskoye, Kuzemyarovskoye. Shelters are less common than settlements with dwellings.

Ancient settlements were located behind the rampart on high terraces near the settlements, as well as in low places - in the floodplain of the Tulva River and its tributaries. The Kudashevsky settlement is located near the Kudashevsky burial ground. On the right bank of the Ashap River, in the Balankuak tract, there is an ancient site - Balankuak.

Burial grounds were arranged on the banks of rivers opposite from the settlements, on low ledges of indigenous terraces. Probably, in a certain sense, the river "separated" the world of the living and the dead.

The habitats and burial places of ancient people were later included in the territories of natural reserves and have always been covered with legends. As a result, they have survived to this day.

Archaeological objects on the territory of the region are located in complexes consisting of several monuments. In terms of the number of monuments, the largest is the Bardymsky complex, which includes five settlements, five settlements. There are five objects in the Kudashevsky complex: three settlements, a settlement, a burial ground. The Krasnoyarsk complex is interesting: settlements, villages, a burial ground (six objects in total).

Attractions Berezovsky district

archaeological sites

There are about 50 archaeological sites in the Berezovsky district. The largest of them:

  • Verkh-Sainsk settlement, which dates back to the 6th century AD. The Verkh-Saya settlement is located on a high cape above the Shakva River. In the course of archaeological excavations, a whole bush of monuments of the Nevolino medieval culture was discovered. A huge amount of material was collected on the site: tools and weapons, ornaments made of non-ferrous metals, bone and stone products, numerous stucco pottery. In the cellars of the ancient settlement, charred grains of cereals were found - barley, rye, soft and dwarf wheat, double-grain spelled, oats. Possibly, the Verkh-Sainsk settlement is one of the ancient Finno-Ugric proto-cities of the Cis-Urals.
  • Bartym sanctuary of the 8th-9th centuries AD. The environs of the village of Bartym are among the richest deposits of ancient oriental silver, for which the lands of the Urals have been famous since ancient times. Probably, in the old Russian documents of the XIV century, this ancient silver is referred to as “silver from the Kama”, a special kind of tribute levied from the population of the Urals. The Bartym silver finds are not associated with either the burial ground or the settlement. They were found on a large area during agricultural work with deep tillage. The scatter of the finds and their very shallow occurrence in the soil argue against attributing them to treasures buried in the ground. Most likely in these places there was a rich sanctuary. The Bartym finds testify to the existence in the 1st millennium AD. in this area of ​​some economically strong center, which had the opportunity to concentrate a large number of imported precious things.

Historical monuments include the buildings of Orthodox churches in the village of Berezovka, the village of Asovo, the village of Sosnovka, the village of Sazhino.
