Volgograd

Volgograd was named Stalingrad (until the dead of Stalin?) and it is located to the river Volga. Around 2003 there was no fastfood restaurant to find in the city. it was original Russia. In the summer it can be more than 30°C. but in the winter it is very cold (minus 20°C or more). You can use a train to travel fom there to Moskow within 20 houres.

Outside the city you can find a typical nearly desert nature. Also the battle fields of World War II are located around here. The city itself is not very nice but has a few interesting spots. The monument on the hill, the promenade at the river also with its Powerplant. I guess it will be very difficult to find people to speak to if you can not speak russian. But if so it can be interesting to find out more about the history of the city.
