VOLGOGRAD
There are many Hero-Cities in our country. Vol-
gograd is one of them.It's a legendary city, because here in
1943 the Soviet Army won the great and glorious victory over
the fascists. It stands on the banks of the great Russian river Volga. Every year thou-
sands of tounsts come to Volgograd. They want to visit
the famous historical places ot our city to honour the memory
of those soldiers, who died here for the freedom of our coun-
try. The symbol of Volgograd Is the Mamayev Hill. There
was the centre of fighting during the heroic defence of Stalin-
grad. Now there is a great memorial there. Besides,
there is the Stalingrad Battle Panorama Museum just on the
bank of the Volga. Near this Museum we can see the ru-
ined mill which was a command post during the battle. In
the centre of Volgograd there is the Square of the Fallen He-
roes. In the middle of it there is a granite obelisk and the
common craves of the heroes of the Civil War and of the Great
Patriotic War. At the foot of the memorial we can see the
Eternal Flame. Now Volgograd is a big industrial city.
There are many plants and factories there: big metallurgical
works, tractor works, a lot of chemical enterprises, a shoe-
making factory and others. Volgograd is a city of students.
There are some institutes and one university and quite a
number of schools, technical schools, colleges and gymnasi-
ums there. Volgograd is a big cultural centre. There are
some theatres there: a New Experimental theatre, a Musical
Comedy theatre, a Puppet theatre, a Theatre of Young Spec-
tators. Volgograd-great city and it should be visited at least once!
