My native town

                                        My  native   town.

            Ulan-Ude is my native town - not very large but beautiful.  It is beautiful in its own way. Only the man who was born and has been living here can feel it.

             When I have free time, I like to walk about the town. There are such places as Arbat or the square of Soviets. The square of Soviet’s  is the place where different  events take  place, e.g:  demonstrations  or  concerts. These places are popular for walks among the citizens. I like to visit museums as well. The ethnographical museum  of the peoples of Siberia is very interesting. Here  the history  of the past really comes alive. If you want  to see how your ancestors lived, come here.         Everything is natural here. The visit gives  you a sense of who you are and where you have come from.  It takes you back in time. It transports you to a different era.  

                 In winter the forests at Verchnyaya  Beryozovka and Arshan are  very beautiful.  Fresh air, white snow and very high trees make effect as if you are in a fairy-tale. At Verchnyaya  Beryozovka you can go to the place  where a river runs in summer and winter. And the squirrels are not afraid of you. They jump near as if they want to talk with you. Isn’t it wonderful?

               Though there are no divorcing bridges, trolley-buses and sky-scrapes I don’t want to go away from my town . This is my native town. And I would like to add that this is the town that joins the people and different nationalities. I’m proud of my town.
