A guide for those who love to discover new cities and countries. Challenge accepted #Introduceyourhometown

The excellent thing invented @pollux.one (to do guide on home city). Just a pity that I have not preserved the pictures (they were left in a broken phone). In the city where I was born, I no longer live. But I'll try post a few photos, to tell You about this wonderful city. And give insider knowhow to!! 😝😘😖

Begin!

Saratov is among the twenty largest cities of Russia. It was built 427 years ago (!!!). The city is situated on the banks of the Volga ( the river length is 3530 km). Did You know that it is the longest river in Europe and 15th in the world?

River Cruise ships calling in the port of Saratov.

I can still have a lot to tell about my native city, but do not want to bore you... If you want to know more (write in comments), I will do a separate blog post.
