The Uglich Case. The Beginning of The Time of Troubles
The Church of St. Dmitry on the Blood, located in the town of Uglich, is a unique document. It preserves the history of tragic events that took place at the turn of the 17th century, events that have gone down in the history of Russia as “The Time of Troubles.” They lasted 20 years, and almost destroyed the Russian state. Uglich was almost razed from the face of the Earth. Of its 40,000 inhabitants, only 500 survived. And it all began with the death of a single child, Tsarevich Dmitry. The different versions of those events to be found in legends and in the evidence assembled during the investigation in the 17th century, in an RTG film.
Tour of the Leningrad Zoo
Among the sights located in the historic centre of St. Petersburg there is one place that holds a particularly dear place in the heart of most residents regardless of age — The Leningrad Zoo. Many have fond memories of visiting the zoo as a child, and it is one place that helps visitors to understand that nature has given us more than just a developed mind that has aided mankind in becoming who he is today. Nature has provided us with the ability to empathise, admire and understand the responsibility we hold for the world in which we live. For half of a century the Leningrad Zoo has remained one of the most beloved destinations of St. Petersburg families. Over its long history not once has it changed its address and it remains a hidden corner in the large cultural capital where guests can familiarise themselves with the wild and natural world.

The thrill and excitement that motivate a driver are just the things that will help him understand what is most important for him personally. In order to better understand this choice, we should visit the racetrack — even if it is just as a spectator.
