Thread: Voronezh

Voronezh
Voronezh is a city in 536 kilometers (333 miles) to the south from Moscow. It'll take you about 6-9 hours by bus to be in Moscow.
Actually it's a city of contrasts - there are poor, decent and kinda luxurious places and districts.
The cost of living allows a foreigner from EU or USA to behave like a king and not worry about money.
There is a proverb or saying - Москва Воронеж - хрен догонишь)
Well, actually there is another one: Жизнь прекрасна в Нидерландах, а в Воронеже - г..вно

There is a link to more than 100 photos of Voronezh.

Is that true, that there is monument for The Raven and a Hedgehog in Voronezh?
(Because Воронеж = Ворон + Ёж.)

Бывал я в этой деревне, мнящей себя столицей Черноземья. Основное впечатление: одна большая пробка. А еще в Воронеже живет и орудует Снежена Денисовна из "Нашей Раши".

Looks like a nice city. And newly renovated!
I've heard of it before, but can't remember the context.

This cartoon brings Voronezh to my mind
