Novosibirsk is the capital of Siberia and the third largest city in Russia. The city is located on the river Ob, which is one of the mighty rivers of Siberia, which also counts Lena and Yenisei. The nature around the city is beautiful and with plenty of space and large forests between the cities along the Siberian roads and railways.
The city of Novonikolaevsk was founded in 1893 as a station along the Trans-Siberian Railway, which opened large parts of Siberia to European Russia. The city was later renamed Novosibirsk, and growth rapidly picked up in the strategically well-located city. After just over 10 years, more than 50,000 people lived in the city, which today is one of the country’s many cities with over a million inhabitants.
There are many interesting things to see in Novosibirsk. The location in Siberia in itself makes the city exciting, and there are many impressive buildings from the Soviet era. These include the main railway station, the city’s metro, Lenin Square and the large opera and ballet theater, which is one of the largest in the world.
In the city you can also visit fine museums where there is a complete skeleton of a mammoth and a depiction of the historical way of life in Siberia as some of the many highlights. Here is also a good zoo and a beach along Ob, where you can enjoy the warm summer weather that characterizes the middle of Siberia.
This is Novosibirsk’s Russian Orthodox Cathedral, named after Alexander Nevsky. The church was built in 1896-1899 in the New Byzantine style as one of the first stone buildings in the Novonikolaevsk of the time. It was built in honor of Tsar Alexander III, who commissioned the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway, which formed the basis for the establishment of the city.
This is the most important theater in Novosibirsk and one of the largest in Russia and most important in Siberia. The theater was completed in 1944 and opened the following year. The architecture is Soviet neoclassicism, and above the auditorium there is a dome with a height of 35 meters/115 feet and a diameter of 60 meters/196 feet.
At the Natural History Museum in Novosibirsk you can get an exciting experience of wildlife, geology etc. in Russia and other countries. There is plenty to see in a varied collection where you can see the skeleton of a mammoth as perhaps the biggest draw.
This fine chapel was built in 1915 to mark the 300th anniversary of the accession of the Romanov dynasty as Russian Tsars. The chapel was symbolically built as the center of the Russian Empire, but it was demolished during the Soviet Union. Instead, a statue of Joseph Stalin was erected in this very place. The chapel was rebuilt in the 1990s to celebrate Novosibirsk’s 100th anniversary.
The Novosibirsk railway station is an important building, as the railway was the reason for the founding of the city. The first station was opened in 1894, and after several expansions, the current railway station was built in the 1930s. You can ride trains to many cities today, the most important of which is the route between Moscow and Vladivostok. You can also take the city metro from the square in front of the station.
This cathedral was built as a wooden church in 1913 in the then city of Novonikolaevsk. It was gradually expanded, and after a time of other uses during the Soviet Union, the building became a church again in 1944. Over the years, the wooden church has been rebuilt into the beautiful stone church you can visit today.
Lenin Square is located in front of Novosibirsk’s Opera and Ballet Theater, and here you can see the city’s statue of the head of state and revolutionary hero Lenin. The statue was erected in 1970 flanked by other sculptural groups. Originally, the square was one of the city’s marketplaces before several large buildings were constructed around it in the 20th century.
On Leninpladsen you can see this building, which was built 1910-1911 as the city’s trading house, which facilitated both shops and the city administration. The building has been open as a museum since 1985.
This museum is housed in the City Trade House in the center of Novosibirsk. There is a lot to look at; eg the permanent exhibition about ancient Siberia. It depicts the way of life, religion and other aspects of Siberia in the old days.
This is one of many of the so-called children’s railways in Russia. It is a mini railway that opened in Zaeltsovsky Park in 2005. The track length is 5.3 kilometers/3.3 miles, and the railway runs in the summer as a fun and different experience.
Novosibirsk is located on the Ob River, one of Russia’s major rivers. In 2014, this 2.1-kilometer/1.3-mile-long bridge was inaugurated by President Vladimir Putin, and stands as one of the city’s famous landmarks of recent times.
This theater was founded in Novosibirsk in 1930, and its current theater building from 1984 is one of the city’s distinctive public buildings from the 1980s.
The Novosibirsk Zoo is one of the city’s popular attractions. The garden was founded in 1947 and is one of the most important in Russia. The place is especially known for the large cats that live in the garden; in 2012, the world’s first liger was born in Novosibirsk Zoo.
In Novosibirsk there are several higher education institutions. The Siberian State University of Transport is one of them and it is housed in an impressive building in Soviet classicism. The university was founded in 1932.
Barnaul is the largest city and the administrative center of the Russian region of Altai Krai. The town’s history is known from 1724, while the official foundation took place in 1730, when a Cossack fort was established on the site. From 1727, the new town became the destination for part of the deportations to Siberia that were carried out, and therefore Barnaul grew relatively quickly. The development led the wealthy Demidov family to build mines and a copper smelter at the mouth of the river Barnaulka in the Ob, and around that came the growth to the formation of modern Barnaul.
The location on the river Ob provided good opportunities for transport to and from Barnaul and for raw materials from the nearby Altai Mountains, where silver was soon found. Demidov’s factories were later taken over by the Russian crown, and Barnaul developed into Russia’s leading silver town, producing around 90% of the country’s silver. In 1771, Barnaul became Russia’s only second mining town, and a mining school was established in the town in 1779.
This is a city that was established as a center of education and science in 1957. During the Soviet Union, it was a privileged place for residents and their families to live. Since the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the city with its many faculties has developed into a place with larger and smaller companies, which has also been called Silicon Forest due to its location in the middle of the forest areas south of Novosibirsk.
Tomsk is a large Russian city located on the river Tom. The city was founded as a fortress in 1604, making it one of Siberia’s oldest cities. Tsar Boris Godunov sent 200 Cossacks to establish a fort at Tom, and it was to be part of the Tartar Duke Toian’s defense against the Kyrgyz. A city grew up at the fortress, and in time an army and trade route was established through Siberia, which also crossed Tomsk. With the location, caravans from China came to the city, among other things, and the growth meant that the city was expanded in the 18th century, from which the Cathedral of the Revelation and the Church of the Resurrection originate.
In 1804, the Russian government established the Tomsk Governorate with Tomsk as its capital. The territory of the governorate covered, among other things, today’s Novosibirsk, Kemerovo, Krasnoyarsk and some of eastern Kazakhstan, and thereby Tomsk became an important administrative city that grew rapidly. Gold was also found in the area in 1830, and it stimulated further growth. Tomsk also became an important educational center in the 19th century, with Tomsk State University established in 1880 and the city’s technical university in 1896.
