Can't say that I love this small town. But due to the fact that my Dad lives there and my Mom and brother rest in peace at the local cemetery I visit it rather often. It's calm and clean, with a lot of flowers and trees. In winter sparkling snow and cold fresh air attract me most of all. Windless weather allows me to enjoy real Russian winter.
Yesterday I had to take my dearest Daddy to his home. It was not an easy thing to leave him there alone but I had. Walking the town I made some photos.
Here they are.
Spassk-Dalny has a station on the Trans-Siberian Railway, with passenger trains connecting the town to destinations includingVladivostok, Khabarovsk and Moscow.
During the Civil War Spassk-Dalny was the arena of hard battles between the White and Red Armies. There is a monument devoted to those battles.
Some monuments and buildings are really ancient but people care about them as they can.
Ice figures a-lya Chinese icetowns look so primitive and ugly I can say. It was an early morning. But I'm sure that even in bright sunshine these figures won't be better.
Father Frost without Snowmaiden. Somebody didn't bear her "beauty" and ruined it.
And here a schoolyard where my daughter studied in the 1st form.
