In this video, we will take you on an exciting journey to the historical heart of Nizhny Novgorod - the Nizhny Novgorod Kremlin! In the company of fashionable guide Dima 4, we explore its rich history, breathtaking architecture and unique atmosphere.

Our first step is Arsenal. This is not just a building, it is a witness to history, from a 19th century military arsenal to a modern art center. It hosts exhibitions and events, and every stone of its new paving stones is a reference to the past.

We walk towards the art museum. This is the former house of the governor, and there is now a collection of Russian art. The museum also has a department of European art. And a modern art building. There is a painting in the Museum of European Art that should be in the building with Russian art, but the painting is so large that it simply won’t fit there. This is Makovsky's painting "Minin's Appeal".

A walk through the Kremlin gardens will give you privacy and amazing views of the Volga, the Spit and the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. We will tell you about secret corners that will become your personal places.

Let's listen to the story about the House of Soviets. Dima will remember the Soviet plans to demolish the Kremlin as a symbol of tsarist power. Let's figure out why, despite construction plans, some buildings were able to survive, but the House of Soviets itself was built on the site of the Transfiguration Cathedral. For the 800th anniversary of Nizhny in our time, the bell tower of this cathedral was restored.

Next, we will go on a journey through coats of arms and symbols, and tell you why a deer is depicted on the coat of arms of Nizhny Novgorod, despite the absence of deer in the region. Let's listen to the history of the Dmitrov Tower, how it acquired its modern appearance.
We will talk about the history of Minin and Pozharsky, why the Soviet government needed them, and why Pozharsky was not loved. Let's look at the cracked obelisk on the territory of the Kremlin.

Let's see the Church of Simeon Stopnik and the Church of John the Baptist.
From Dima we learn how public transport was organized in Nizhny. How the routes of trams and funiculars closed in a circle. And why it was not possible to do it with trams alone?

We will go beyond the Kremlin wall and determine which routes you can take to explore the Kremlin. Let's find out when there was a major restoration of the Kremlin, which preserved it.

And at the end of the day we will enjoy delicious pastries at the Ministry of Breakfast. Together with Dima 4, we will talk about tea traditions, the history of the merchants, and also look into the House of the Commune and understand why it was created, and what they wanted to make the everyday life of Soviet workers.
