If you like to travel, if you want to see beautiful and historical places and meet interesting people, you have to come to Kazan. This town is very old and has many interesting facts for guests. Honestly, I am sure, even its citizens don’t know everything about it.
My first meet with this fantastic town was 5 years ago, when I went with my parents to visit our friends. We arrived here very late and the weather was not so good. I could not see everything properly and didn’t really like that place. Next morning we went out and I have seen all this architecture and streets.
Well Kazan is a city of Russia, located in south-west on the banks of rivers Volga and Kazanka. Kazan is the capital of Republic of Tatarstan. The population of this city is 1,2 million of people. It’s actually one of the biggest cities in Russia.
The story of this town is very long and old. It was founded in 1005.
There are many historical places to see here. We didn’t succeed to visit everything. I hope one day I will come back here again.
So I advice you to visit Kazan Kremlin. It is located in the center of the city. There are many tourists here usually. This building is like a symbol of Kazan. I made few pictures there.
Other interesting places are Kul Sharif Mosque, Temple of all Religions, Riviera Aqua park. All these places are worth to visit. As for me, all these places can be symbols of Kazan. They are really unique and historical.
I also liked Bauman street a lot. This street is located in the heart of the city. You can walk here around the whole day.
I think I can talk about this city forever. Trip to Kazan was one small and interesting adventure for me. My advice is: don’t listen to me but go and visit this unforgettable city. I am sure you will fall in love with it.

Если вам нравится путешествовать, если вы хотите повидать красивые и исторические места и познакомиться с интересными людьми, вам нужно поехать в Казань. Этот город очень старый и расскажет гостям много интересных фактов. Честно говоря, я уверена, даже жители этого города не знают всех его тонкостей.
Моя первая встреча с этим фантастическим городом произошла 5 лет назад, когда я поехала с родителями в гости к друзьям. Мы прибыли в город очень поздно и погода была плохая. Я не смогла увидеть толком ничего и, честно говоря, город мне сразу не понравился. На следующее утро мы вышли на прогулку и я рассмотрела архитектуру и улицы.
Казань – это город в России, расположенный на юго-западе, на берегах реки Волга и Казанка. Казань- столица Республики Татарстан. Численность населения составляет 1,2 миллиона человек. Это один из самых больших городов России.
История города очень длинная и старая. Он был основан в 1005 году.
Там есть много исторических мест, чтобы посетить. Мы, конечно, так и не смогли увидеть все. Надеюсь, однажды я сюда снова вернусь.
Итак, в Казани я рекомендую вам посетить Кремль. Он расположен в центре города. Тут обычно гуляет много туристов. Это здание является своего рода символом города. Я сделала тут несколько снимков.
Другие интересные места в Казани- Кул Шариф, Храм всех религий, аква парк Ривьера. Все эти места достойны вашего внимания. Я считаю, что все эти места могут стать символом Казани. Ведь они по-настоящему уникальные и исторические. А ещё мне понравилась очень улица Баумана. Она расположена в самом центре города. Тут можно гулять целый день.
Кажется, я могу говорить об этом городе бесконечно. Поездка в Казань стала маленьким и интересным приключением для меня. Так что мой совет: не слушайте меня, а езжайте в этот незабываемый город. Уверена, что вы влюбитесь в него.
I live and study in Kazan city, the capital of the Republic of Tatarstan. It’s my native city as I was born here. Kazan is located on the left bank of the Volga river and it was founded more than one thousand years ago. So it is a very old place, with rich and fascinating history. The population of my city is multinational and enormous: about one and a half million people. Kazan has changed greatly from the moment when I was born and it has grown much bigger, but still it keeps its own traditions and some strict religious rules. The people of my city are friendly and hospitable, polite and intelligent to my mind.
The capital of Tatarstan is a city of contrasts: there are quarters of modern high-rise buildings and districts with old historical places; some districts are awfully noisy and crowded, with long traffic jams, the others are very clean and quiet. Our transport system is really busy: we have a railway station, a big river port, an airport, buses, trolleybuses, trams and trains of the Kazan metro which was opened in 2005.
There are plenty of impressive sights for our guests in the historical centre of the city: the Kremlin of the 10th century, the Millenium bridge, the Kul-Sharif mosque and other beautiful cathedrals and mosques. Kazan has unique museums, able to suit any taste: the Fine Arts museum, the museum of Leo Tolstoy, the National museum of Tatarstan, the museum of Zoology.
My native city is a recognized sports capital of Russia. It has hosted many important sports events. The International Summer Universiade of 2013 was among them. And in 2018 our city is going to host the FIFA World Cup.
I feel proud of my birthplace and I am sure that Kazan is the place which is worth visiting at least once in our life. I know that many tourists from abroad come here and they feel enraptured with the local sights.
Перевод
Я живу и учусь в городе Казань, столице республики Татарстан. Это мой родной город, так как я здесь родился. Казань расположена на левом берегу реки Волга и была основана более тысячи лет назад. Поэтому это очень старое место, с богатой и увлекательной историей. Население моего города многонациональное и огромное: около 1,5 млн человек. Казань очень изменилась с момента моего рождения и стала намного больше, но все же она хранит свои традиции и некоторые строгие религиозные правила. Люди в моем городе приветливы и гостеприимны, вежливы и умны, по моему мнению.
Столица Татарстана – это город контрастов: есть кварталы с современными высотными зданиями и районы со старыми историческими местами; некоторые районы ужасно шумные и многолюдные, с длинными дорожными пробками, а другие – очень чистые и тихие. Наша транспортная система очень оживленная: у нас есть железнодорожный вокзал, большой речной порт, аэропорт, автобусы, троллейбусы, трамваи и поезда Казанского метро, которое было открыто в 2005 г.
В историческом центре города находится множество впечатляющих достопримечательностей для гостей: Кремль 10-го века, мост Миллениум, мечеть Кул-Шариф и другие красивые соборы и мечети. В Казани есть уникальные музеи, способные удовлетворить любой вкус: музей изящных искусств, музей Л.Толстого, национальный музей Татарстана, зоологический музей.
Мой родной город является признанной спортивной столицей России. Он принимал гостей многих важных спортивных событий. Международная летняя Универсиада-2013 была одной из них. А в 2018 г. наш город собирается принимать участников Кубка мира FIFA.
Я горжусь местом своего рождения, и я уверен, что Казань – это место, которое стоит посетить хотя бы раз в жизни. Я знаю, что многие туристы приезжают к нам, и они приходят в восторг от местных достопримечательностей.
В топике Республика Татарстан и Казань – я хочу рассказать о моей Республике и моем родном городе, которыми я горжусь. Татарстан расположен в центре Европейской части России, в месте слияния двух рек — Волги и Камы. Его население составляет около 3 миллионов человек. Климат умеренно-континентальный, с теплым, иногда жарким летом и умеренно холодной зимой. Главное богатство Татарстана – нефть. У нас 2 государственных языка: русский и татарский. Один из самых красивых соборов в Казани – Собор Святого Павла. Среди достопримечательностей: Парк Культуры и отдыха, Казанский Кремль и Казанский Университет, Татарский Драматический Театр и речной порт Казани.
I want to tell you about Tatarstan, one of the biggest republics of Russia. It is located in the Eastern part of Europe at the junction of the Volga and Kama rivers. Its population is about three million people. Climate is moderate-continental with warm, sometimes hot summers and moderate cold winters. The main wealth of Tatarstan is oil, the stock of which is about one billion tons a year.
There are two state languages in Tatarstan: Russian and Tatar. Besides these languages there are a lot of languages spoken in the republic: the Chuvash language, the Mary language, the Mordova language and etc. All these language belongs to the Indo-European family of languages.
The capital of Tatarstan is Kazan. It is located on the left bank of the Volga river and was founded in 1177 by the Bulgar tzar Ibrahim. It is a big political, economic and cultural centre. It is the Seat of the Republic government, the high court, the Academy of sciences and many administrative bodies. Kazan is also the cultural centre. There are many libraries, theatres, museums, monuments and other places of interest in it. One of the most beautiful Cathedrals in Kazan is St. Paul’s Cathedral.
The attraction of historical places is not only in their architecture, but in the names of people or events which are connected with them. One of the places of historical interest in our country is the Central Park of Recreation and Rest. It is noticed for its landscape and architecture. The usual tourists’ attractions are the Kremlin and the University of Kazan. Besides they visit Tatar Drama Theatre. Another attraction is the Riverport of Kazan. In summer it is a crowded place but in winter it is visited very seldom. Our government and the city magistrate in Kazan do everything in their power to preserve building of the architectural value.
Kazan is also famous for its classical and modern writers, scientists, who made a valuable contribution to literature and science (M. Djalil, Butlerov). I’m very proud of my Motherland and I’ll be very happy to show it to my foreign friends.

One of the most important sights of our capital is The Kazan Kremlin. It was built on behest of Ivan the Terrible on the ruins of the former castle of Kazan khans. Kul-Sharif mosque was built in the Kazan Kremlin in the 16th century. Besides the main mosque building it includes a library, publishing house and Imam’s office.

Our capital is very hospitable and always glad to receive guests!
Kazan is the capital city of the Republic of Tatarstan. It is also one of the most exciting cities I have ever seen. Last year we visited Kazan with our school teachers and classmates. It was an informative trip, as we saw lots of historic, natural and architectural sights. Our guide was an elderly woman who had a lot to tell. In local language Kazan means “a pot”, which is true as it resembles a hollow or boiler. The city has a favourable geographic position. It is situated near the Volga River which helped to develop trading relations from ancient times. According to historians the city is one thousand years or even older. In the middle of the 16th century it became the part of the Russian empire and the population constantly grew since then. At the moment Kazan shows population over a million people. It features a well-developed chemical and aviation industry, sports and cultural fields. Perhaps, the most popular sport in the city is football. Cultural background is also on good level. You can find the Academic Opera, the Museum of Natural History and other culturally interesting establishments there. All the guests of the city are offered to visit the Kremlin, which is a complex of outstanding monuments. For students Kazan is one of the friendliest cities. It features dozens of educational institutions where you can find the highest level of teaching. It is especially true about the Federal University or Medical University.

В прошлом году мы посетили Казань с нашими школьными учителями и одноклассниками. Это была информативная поездка, так как мы посмотрели много исторических, природных и архитектурных достопримечательностей. Нашим гидом была пожилая женщина, которой было, что рассказать. На местном диалекте Казань означает «котел», что совершенно верно, так как город напоминает глубокую впадину или котлован. Город имеет выгодное географическое положение. Он расположен недалеко от реки Волга, что помогало строить торговые отношения с древнейших времен. По мнению историков городу более тысячи лет. В середине 16-го века он стал частью Российской империи, а население с тех пор постоянно росло. В настоящее время население Казани более миллиона человек. В ней хорошо развиты химическая и авиационная промышленности, области культуры и спорта. Пожалуй, самым популярным видом спорта в городе является футбол. Культурная жизнь также на хорошем уровне. Вы можете посетить Академический театр оперы, Музей естественной истории и другие с культурной точки зрения интересные учреждения. Всем гостям города предлагается посетить Кремль, который представляет собой комплекс выдающихся памятников. Для студентов Казань один из самых дружелюбных городов. К услугам гостей несколько десятков учебных заведений, где можно найти самый высокий уровень преподавания. Это особенно верно, о Федеральном или Медицинском университете.

In local language Kazan means “a pot”, which is true as it resembles a hollow or boiler. The city has a favourable geographic position. It is situated near the Volga River which helped to develop trading relations from ancient times. According to historians the city is one thousand years or even older. In the middle of the 16th century it became the part of the Russian empire and the population constantly grew since then. At the moment Kazan shows population over a million people. It features a well-developed chemical and aviation industry, sports and cultural fields. Perhaps, the most popular sport in the city is football. Cultural background is also on good level. You can find the Academic Opera, the Museum of Natural History and other culturally interesting establishments there. All the guests of the city are offered to visit the Kremlin, which is a complex of outstanding monuments. For students Kazan is one of the friendliest cities. It features dozens of educational institutions where you can find the highest level of teaching. It is especially true about the Federal University or Medical University.

В прошлом году мы посетили Казань с нашими школьными учителями и одноклассниками. Это была информативная поездка, так как мы посмотрели много исторических, природных и архитектурных достопримечательностей. Нашим гидом была пожилая женщина, которой было, что рассказать. На местном диалекте Казань означает «котел», что совершенно верно, так как город напоминает глубокую впадину или котлован. Город имеет выгодное географическое положение. Он расположен недалеко от реки Волга, что помогало строить торговые отношения с древнейших времен. По мнению историков городу более тысячи лет. В середине 16-го века он стал частью Российской империи, а население с тех пор постоянно росло. В настоящее время население Казани более миллиона человек. В ней хорошо развиты химическая и авиационная промышленности, области культуры и спорта. Пожалуй, самым популярным видом спорта в городе является футбол. Культурная жизнь также на хорошем уровне. Вы можете посетить Академический театр оперы, Музей естественной истории и другие с культурной точки зрения интересные учреждения. Всем гостям города предлагается посетить Кремль, который представляет собой комплекс выдающихся памятников. Для студентов Казань один из самых дружелюбных городов. К услугам гостей несколько десятков учебных заведений, где можно найти самый высокий уровень преподавания. Это особенно верно, о Федеральном или Медицинском университете.
