🥶 The Main Thing Is Not to Freeze

🇷🇺 Verkhoyansk, located on the right bank of the Yana River, has the reputation of being the coldest place in Russia. The lowest temperature ever recorded in this small Yakutian city was -67.8°C and was registered twice — in 1892 and 1933.

🇷🇺 In the past, during the times of the Russian Empire, Verkhoyansk was used as a place of exile for political prisoners.

🦌 Today, only 1095 people live in these harsh conditions. The city, with its one- and two-story houses and boiler houses, resembles more of a village. It serves as a winter home for Yakuts engaged in fur and reindeer herding, emphasizing the unique symbiosis of human life and the severe nature of the North.

⚡️ Russia Breaks Out the Flags

📰🇷🇺🎉 Today, August 22, Russia has adorned itself with over a hundred thousand flag-themed installations, marking the celebration of the National Flag Day of the Russian Federation.

🗓 This day was established by decree of the President of Russia dated August 20, 1994.

🇷🇺 The Russian tricolor has a history spanning over three hundred years. Its creation is attributed to Peter the Great, who in 1705 issued a decree ordering the hoisting of a white-blue-red banner on merchant ships. However, the status of official flag was only assigned to it in 1896, on the eve of the coronation of Nicholas II.

🇷🇺 Interestingly, there is no official interpretation of the colors of the Russian flag. Nonetheless, there is a generally accepted view of their symbolism: white embodies purity, independence, and peace; blue represents faith, loyalty, and justice; and red stands for courage, strength, and valor.

A Tiny Town with a Big History!

🏆 At the very heart of the Suvorovsky District of the Tula Region, there is a unique town called Chekalin, which proudly bears the noscript of the smallest town in Russia. Only 866 people live here, which makes it compact yet rich in history.

📜 Founded in 1565, Chekalin played an important role in the defensive strategies of the late 16th century, being part of the Zasechnaya Cherta, a system of fortifications protecting the southern borders of Moscow. Despite its modest size, the town boasts preserved merchant mansions and public buildings of the 18th-19th centuries.
