The Frozen North East, part four

We have come to the last post about our Siberian trip. We hope you have enjoyed looking at the pictures and seeing some of the things we did while we were there. However, these pictures only scratch the surface! There is so much more we can tell you about the land of ice sculptures, mammoths and frozen rivers. So don’t worry, when we move there next year there will be many more posts about the frozen north east.

Thanks for checking out our blog!

Yummy!!

We visited an area called the Old City, located near the center of town, which was reconstructed in the architectural style of the 19th century. Most of the wooden houses are newly built copies of half destroyed, burnt, or dismantled ones.

Many little shops in this building

We were able to go to a concert while we were there, with a mix of local folk music, Russian and even two American songs.
