🖼 This is the art object that appeared in Vladivostok after the Eastern Economic Forum.

🇨🇳 It was created by Chinese artist Qi Xinghua, a Guinness World Record holder and a master of 3D painting.

The project was implemented as part of the "Meta Centers" initiative by Russia's largest grocery store chain, "Pyaterochka".

🩱 The initiative aims to beautify the appearance of Far Eastern cities, provide support to the professional art community, and thus create an inseparable connection between art and business.

Splendid art pieces have also appeared on the streets of Khabarovsk and Komsomolsk-on-Amur.

🇷🇺 A Castle from the Samara Region

Traveling through a peaceful Russian village, you unexpectedly find yourself in a European atmosphere.

🏰 Garibaldi Castle, created by local entrepreneur Oleg Garibaldievich Kuzichkin. He built it in his wife's home village in honor of his father — Garibaldi Arkadievich.

Construction began in 2006 and is still ongoing. The castle is designed to appear as if it was built over centuries: from the early Middle Ages of the 10th century to the Romanticism of the 19th century. Therefore, some parts look "older" than others, and traces of destruction are more noticeable on the "ancient" fragments.

The appearance of the castle gave impetus to the development of the village: the flow of tourists increased, and a new church, roads, kindergartens, and a school appeared.

Fun fact: The castle grounds are open to everyone — you can freely walk and park here; no payment is needed. There is a souvenir [shop] on the territory.
