Introduction to Leningrad oblast

Hi, friends! Is there anyone alive, aren't they all drove off for may at cities and villages? I personally have to sit at work not knowing which side to start raking mail) But in the meantime, on may day idly did not sit, and had neroulias across the expanses of the Leningrad oblast as planned after the March trip to Petersburg. 10 years ago, has skated here with friends on a battle Ode, so many places we had to visit again. The General impression about the region well is very controversial – it's definitely not my territory. Too many people, too many houses and heaps of garbage everywhere googy. Road or super, or a hole in the pit. Yes and look at the part of my specific objects is in General nothing. All either completely destroyed, or the capital mothballed or Museum. Steering on the suburban traffic of the Leningrad region, sadly empty Kostroma and Tver road. There as well!
Enough about the bad, now good), the Weather was different, but the fact that two days of the four the sun was shining – I think for these places a great success! Nature in the North is awesome. Want to go to Karelia and on to the horizon) And in the South managed to find interesting zabroski, to communicate with the local population, and see how the eyes come alive nature. In General, except for the fact that back I was driving 100 km CAD-Chudov 4 hours, the trip went super! Travel map turned out overloaded, so leaving only some of us.items and significantly moved the Vyborg, he is of course away)
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
On the road from Moscow was wrapped in selishchi (it's Novgorod oblast) to see the mega-barracks. In life ruins was even bigger than the photo, so, despite the pouring rain, we are very impressed by them.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
She looked the mansion of Marino, where now a Museum and hotel. The place is beautiful, its cool ennobled, and the Museum, though, a helluva lot of modern, but contains many recognizable items from the 19th century. In General, I recommend to go here in good weather.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Next, we went to my cottage on a lake in 30 km from St. Petersburg. As it was already evening, only managed to walk, to eat and to plan further action. One of the main directions was the examination of wooden cottages on the Bay. Here we are in for a bummer of course, the most interesting houses or burned or gained zealous owners of koi have changed their appearance beyond recognition. But the most desirable my cottage in Zelenogorsk was still alive, though under guard, though here in this unfavorable light. But inside remained cool oven, which we enthusiastically did. Will do a report on this house.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
In Kronstadt I first – the center is beautiful! Really liked it here, though I can't say that the city is photogenic, but the endless warehouses and barracks seemed to me personally a scenery for a computer game.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
On the way to Kronstadt noticed an island with a road to it and decided to go there. The Navigator said it was North of Fort No. 1, and I've only been on Fort Krasnaya Gorka. I liked it there, I cannot say the same about the first Fort. The road there is so-so, solid pit. The Fort also represents the painted the trash. At the entrance stinks of garbage and urine o_o People, you do what you are doing and then?! Of course, here all the machines come, it's hard to cram everything in a bag and take it to the nearest container? At Kronstadt cemetery by the way the container has not one. Well visited and well, now at least I know as they like in the Gulf of Finland to visit the divine Fort backwaters boat)))
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Another plan was the mandatory trip to Vyborg. Was already here, but apparently not with those people, because then the city is not liked. This arrival rushed through the streets not knowing what to photograph, super, super, beautiful, pozeporno, niverville renovated – everything I love. In Vyborg, too, will make a separate report.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Port though it expresses my ecstasy in the city centre, MAAAAAA!
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Visited the Park of mon repos, nothing that Boyan – still beautiful here. We in the suburbs and there is nothing like that.

Visited a few estates, like a Ghost type Titov.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
And canned type of Belogorka. Was still in the estates-not-very-famous museums and even an estate-the nuthouse.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Koporye from 4 April, too, is the cast! Due to the emergency condition of the fortress, the Museum was closed. The aunt at the box office however sitting, selling books and mugs. The fortress is open, as in the territory of the Orthodox Church, but the inscription says that in all accidents on site is the responsibility of the visitors.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Who else loves abandoned technical schools more than me? There is also a semi-abandoned former giant agro-science) so far has closed only two pre-revolutionary housing, Yes, one modern, but think the pace will be here soon another Kologriv or Gur'yevo.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
One off-road adventure also took place to be) I wanted to visit an abandoned furnace-pipe Sturmanskie. But that's not attended to I their exact location, hoping that in the Leningrad region are located along roads. Besides, I now mater ambitious, so get going to find them in the old quarry. The quarry was posodeystvuem, huge and rascisim from the rain. Swim through the mud for an hour and not finding anything, of course I was upset. Unfortunately because of the rain and asking it was not one – one stray dogs tried to attack the car. But the pipe still saw elsewhere. There are three such abandoned pipe right at the edge of the "Museum" Izvara)) Cheers!
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
As I said, the place is busy, so any exit from the asphalt promised peace and relaxation. Visited a place such as the Fifth mountain, is quite ruined, but extremely picturesque. Here are some in this state, all "cultural" transitions area... saves Some beautiful scenery, and some have nothing to save(
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Unexpectedly vouchsafed to reach the caves in Rozhdestveno. I thought once they are on the map even marked, so just tourist bullshit. But no, the cave was interesting and not even very small. Sorry could not take pictures there normally, no climbing. As both a tripod and a flashlight of course lying in the car.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
Found many old graves in cemeteries) navayal So another necro-post) Here for example plush tombstone of Ratchino.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
In abandoned houses what little I managed to find, everything is looted. Only stove tiles and branded bricks, of which there in large numbers. Yes, even in the same house under the plaster revealed a pre-revolutionary "Wallpaper" of the Newspapers. Here for example is selling Gary light treatment on the Sink and note "unto mind spreading through the city rumors of street protests..." .
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
That even domeracki Petrograd were now under the local mow) Joke, a room can be found at the sharp turn sign in front of Torosovo.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
I also made a lap of honor around Kadu, it was great, as the ring road has long been not pass a day without traffic jams.
Introduction to Leningrad oblast
In General, now I have somehow contrived not to make a bunch of reports on the Pskov)) On the second may still hope somewhere to dump again, so I will spam ruins after the tenth! Oh, and also, in view of the hopeless taxi I had taken any video... I Know some, it is even appreciate, but hopefully not for long)

Yes, Lisiy nos in General is a unique place. It is a pity very few of the old left.
I live in Kolomyagi. Also the history of the place.One friend direct an entire book on our village wrote. Next Shuvalovo, Ozerki and some of lesser-known former settlements. So even in the last 15 years old are very much fewer, not to mention about the last century)

I recommend to pay attention on the Stone and Krestovsky island in St. Petersburg, and Sochi have something to watch. Old and a little neglected, but there must be sought.

k

Unfortunately from Zelenogorsk old only müsers dacha will be :( the rest I don't liked something burned, over the fence :(( With villas actually in tears looks. Especially in Lisy nos — like and see the house krasivui, not to get close to him — fences-fences :(

Yes, there is something we were not) although the idea was to ride, but time was running out. Have to come back to me and close to the Fox nose, the coast liked it, although I understand why — there's a midweek April day people in General no

It was close, I forgot to say, there are ruins of the most powerful Fort in Leningrad oblast Petrograd. Now they are preparing the construction of the cottage village, so it's worth the time to go, until everything is destroyed. The main battery can be down to five levels down, then everything flooded. Very interesting, but dangerous. ))

I looked at the map, I recommend it as something to call in Primorsk, former Bjerke.
