the three-tiered creation consists of 128 figures, the most worthy. village of lekova. once upon a time it was completely populated by old believers, bespopovites. here they had their own house of worship. let me remind you that in the 17th century, as a result of the church reforms of patriarch nikon, not all christians accepted changes in rituals. the followers of the old faith began to be called old believers.

into the golden gates, into the cracked spoons, adults, today it seems to us that they were very much like children, how can one really behave like that in a business-like manner, maybe they there were some dependencies, but not our modern gadget one, reality was not replaced by virtuality, everyone was really having fun, the hut in which the museum is now open was built in the twenties of the last century, but due to collectivization no one was ever in it lived, at one time there was a collective farm office here, and a sanitation council,

they carded sheep’s wool themselves, and then sent it to the spinning wheel. determining the thread is not an easy process; a cup of cranberries must be nearby at all times. to stretch the fur, you need to moisten it with saliva. try it, sit here a whole evening at the spinning wheel, that’s not enough saliva. the cranberries helped. they also treat you to the famous black cabbage soup, aka cabbage soup, which simmers in a cast iron pot for almost a day. this is how they become especially aromatic and are called, right? with earphones. he makes kroshevy from the top leaves of cabbage, and during the season he rolls up more than one barrel at a time. every time a tour comes to the old believer compound, the same story is repeated. our children won’t eat cabbage soup, but the little ones sit down and eat it on both cheeks. how bad we know our children? you can see all these unique sights that we presented to you today with your own eyes, because the path here is not long at all,

easter, we do not say goodbye to the novgorod region and say see you in the new issue. these are not travel notes with dmitry krylov. today we are fellow travelers to the resort, which is one of the most beloved popular resorts in our country, these are caucasian mineral waters. that is, we continue to get acquainted. from kislovodsk. our kislovodsk at the turn of the 19th-2nd centuries was considered a bourgeois-aristocratic elite resort in its prestige could be compared with karlovy vary and baden-baden, except that it was not located in europe, in the caucasus. and although in general kislovodsk is multinational, and its residents joke that when traveling outside the city, they are all considered one nation, kislovodsk residents, but nevertheless, the caucasian flavor here is felt in absolutely everything and...

the caucasus. well , local national musical groups, oh, this is real exotic , where else, so unexpectedly and for free get on the incendiary lezginka. the sparkling drum dances instantly attracted spectators who hurried to the inviting melodies next to the norzan gallery. yes, better leisure. after drinking narzan you can’t even imagine. lesginka is the main dance of the caucasian dzhigits. this skill is taught from early childhood. that's why these boys dance like real men. passionately and selflessly. not dancing - fire. by the way,

the composition of the ensemble is international, as are the rhythms and composition they perform. the guys use a mik in their productions. ossetian, georgian, chechen and other melodies of the north caucasus. the talan ensemble is only about 5 years old, living up to its name; it recently won the grand prix at the all-russian schoolchildren's competition. following the drummers , the audience was delighted by the armenian dance group manushak. there are only girls in jazz, well, that is, there are girls in this group. vnushak is translated from armenian as violet. now there are 37 violets in the ensemble, the youngest are 3-4 years old.

the team is already more than 20 years old, all classes and rehearsals are held in armenian, because the main task that the permanent leader of the ensemble, alla rafaelovna, sets for herself is to return. armenian culture and teaching girls national traditions. as for dancing, the most difficult thing, according to teachers, is to retrain older young ladies from modern dances to folk ones. that is, to displace disco music, teach grace, a sense of melody and smooth movement. but if we talk about the multinationality of this entire region, then a noticeable caucasian accent here is combined with kasadian traditions. and not always in in previous history, caucasians and cossacks got along peacefully, anything happened. when cossacks began to arrive here two centuries ago,

cossack villages began to appear here. the cossacks, together with russian soldiers, rebuilt the azov-mozdok defensive line. a total of 10 fortresses were erected. cossack village bikesh. and suvorovskaya closed the entrance to the caucasian mineral waters, in the villages of barkusanskaya, suvorovskaya, bikeshevskaya, and today the descendants of those cossacks live. as you know, the cossacks always accepted strangers with caution, lived in their own close circle, only recently have newcomers been allowed to settle in these villages. but all the main issues, for example, the choice of otaman, are still resolved today in the so-called circle. a curious tradition, however, is an old one. the oldest cossack must whip the newly chosen ataman on the back with a nut, the new ataman had to bear 10 ritual blows, but so that he remembers that he was chosen by the cossacks and must live and work exclusively for them. yes, this is cossack democracy.

get to know cossack life and traditions better, i’m sure you don’t know much about this, maybe in a cossack ethnographic farmstead. look at your goods, our merchant, for yourself. crazy fellow with sparkling eyes. ira, and the soul, ira, is good. once near the house or in the house itself, there was always a basement; it served not only for storing salted watermelons and other foodstuffs. if they expected someone who was not at all welcome to come, the basement was opened in advance. well, why? yes , so that the unexpected guest would immediately collapse into the empty darkness. the owner of this house was emelyan pavlenko, rich. wealthy cossack, the house is 116 years old, during its life it has survived two wars, floods, even earthquakes, but everything here is real, old cossack furniture, a stove, all household utensils, the house seems cozy, warm and completely peaceful, only

the indispensable cossack attributes remind of its troubled life owner. in every hut , in addition to household utensils, there should have been amulets, here is a doll's amulet, it should not... in no case should it have a face, if next to the child there is a doll that has a face, oh, it can cause damage to the baby, these are the dolls, they protect them, like this looks... from a friend, but there was always a preliminary agreement between the parents. then, just in case, the young people were also asked for consent.

as a rule, they gave consent, regardless of what they actually thought about the upcoming marriage. lev nikolaevich tolstoy once said: the cossacks gave birth to the border, and the cossacks created russia. if any of you have heard about kislovodsk, and especially been to this resort, then you probably know about its national park. to appreciate the scale of the national park kislovodsk, which is almost thousands of hectares, is worth a look at its visitor center. there is a lot in it for the inquisitive and inquisitive, that is, for viewers, not tickets. otherwise, why would you be sitting in front of the screen now, right? the model of the park clearly shows that the territory consists of several zones, but most importantly, this park is an ecosystem created from scratch, in simple words, so that you can understand, sergei filipich. a little over 200 years ago there was not a single tree here, and behind the three ridges

surrounding the city and the park there were endless potato fields, 200 years ago the lower park was laid out, or as it was also called, the resort promenade, but what does laid out mean, and the fact that every tree in the park was planted by human hands, in many places the fertile layer of soil was so small, that the land was brought here manually in wheelbarrows. seedlings of trees and shrubs were delivered from the crimean possessions of prince mikhail varantsov, governor of the caucasus, plants were brought from teflis, gardens of the northern caucasus and even riga. moreover, forests were even planted on the tops of three mountain ranges. for this a special canadian blue spruce was introduced. they transported it on ships, each seedling was very expensive, 300-400 rubles in silver, well, that was crazy money at that time. a walk through the resort medicinal park, and i somehow think that you

will find yourself here sooner or later, will become not just a pleasure for you, but a walk along the terenkurs, medicinal, of course, here in kislovodsk, but everything is medicinal, the air and the water, and the species, by the way, that’s why you don’t ask what kind of taryankurs these are, chickens from some kind of taren, no ross samoilovna, translated from in french and german, teren kur means... terrain, that is, all the routes in the park are laid out taking into account the landscape and those walking along them experience a dosed load, primarily on the heart, so there will also be preparatory routes for you, but this is for dummies and exhausted by narzan, but i’m not kidding, of course, for the sick and weakened, it’s difficult, that is, it is a full-fledged cardio workout, in which you can only move after agreeing with a doctor, like that, and by the way, i didn’t know this, in russia... chekhov. and also in

kislovodsk park has a cable car, built in the seventies of the last century, but its favorite is popular. two trailers allow 25 people into their interiors and move towards each other for about, well, 10 minutes; those who distinguish themselves are shown elbrus. but it’s better to watch this wayward handsome guy from the seven winds gazebo. it's almost. the highest point of the park, from here you can see both elbrus and the main part of the caucasian ridge. oh, what a fascinating sight. and on mount red sun you can meet a very young mikhail yuryevich lermontov. in good weather, the poet is surrounded by female attention. during the day , more than a dozen pretty young ladies sit on his knees, but nothing for the rebellious poet. he looks thoughtfully into the distance, perhaps it is at this moment that lines are born in his head. although fate at the dawn of my days tore away the southern mountains from you, in order to remember them forever,

you must be there once, like the sweet song of my homeland, i love the caucasus, i agree with the poet, the caucasus is a real grace, stopudov, by the way, a place, where will we go next a short pause, this is the name of grace, there are high mountains, clean lakes, beautiful. gorge and healing springs with mineral water, we are in kabordino balkaria, are there any visual points by which one can determine that the horse will be cool and... in appearance and simply in the look of the horse, as they say, a dog will not be born from a horse, one of the rarest species of sturgeon, we get these albinos, it’s feeding time now, you can try it well, seriously, yes, of course, it doesn’t taste bad, i heard that some things are happening here mystical things, time stands still, people

don’t age, my grandfather got married at 110, life of his own, premiere. today is the first one. so, the promised grace. this was the name of the estate of the honorary teacher agafonov during the silver age. the grace estate was very popular back then, but it is no less popular now. for more than 30 years , a theater-museum has been located in the building of an ancient estate, miraculously saved from demolition during soviet times. its creator and permanent leader. whose soul she fills from year to year with more and more new exhibits, although it would be unfair to call the exhibition objects she collected by this word. the museum has several exhibitions, they are dedicated to russian america, that is, to those who came from russia and brought glory

to the united states of our russia. aircraft organizer igor sekorsky, they call him father. whose second concert some music lovers place above all of ours, that is, tchaikovsky’s first concert. blasphemous? hmm, well, i know those who consider number one a poet, not the sun

of our poetry, alexander sergeevich, but michal yurich, but this is by the way. in general, here in the museum there are exhibitions for many worthy people who lived in different... countries, but multiplied the glory of russia, but exhibitions are only a small part of what awaits those who come here, let’s give it their due, valentina petrovna did much more than just a museum, she revived the traditions of kislovodsk theatrical evenings and theatrical dinners, which were very popular not only in this estate, but in kislovodsk as a whole. moreover, she managed to create here that atmosphere of warmth and comfort that has been characteristic of this place for more than a century back, as the hostess herself says, it’s worth coming here to feel the aromas of old kislovodsk, and you will certainly feel them, i give you my word. that day , khanuma was given at the estate, the audience listened to the performance with pure and unadulterated delight, a spectator from moscow later said, probably, the unique colorful caucasian humor can only be conveyed by people living in the caucasus, but i ’m not sure, because we have navtalins,

in memory of a wonderful performance, and then a film-play by georgy tavtsany khonom, included with... sky classics, in which caucasian characters were played, and brilliantly, exclusively by russian actors. oh, this is not the end of our acquaintance with kislovodsk, there are other attractions and no less attractive surroundings ahead, so it’s time for you to take a trip to these places for health, pleasures, and the beauty of the local region. caucasian mineral waters are our kislovodsk, which we visited, but this is also pyatigorsk, and zheleznovodsk, and yesentuki, and lev.

believe me, you would never know my shame, if only i had the hope of seeing you at least rarely, at least once a week in our village, on the poet’s anniversary. hello, there is a news broadcast on channel one, in the studio of maxim sharafuddinov, this is the main thing today. the path is open for assault units, tanks are working in the orekhovsk direction and at the helm2.
