Project Work. Icons of Russia. Semina Darya 7A

I chose this topic because I would be able to tell about the most famous sights and things of Russia. Besides, I think, It will be interesting and useful for people, who like travelling, to learn more about my country, its beauty and things we all are proud of.

Kremlin Its the heart of Moscow, our capital city. It was built in centuries. The main Kremlin Tower, the Spasskaya Tower, has become a symbol of Russia.

Peterhoff Its another symbol of Russia. Its situated near the Northern Capital, St. Petersburg. It was the first residence of Peter The Great. Peterhoff is very beautiful.

Isaaks Cathedral in St. Petersburg Its the main cathedral of St. Petersburg. It has a status of a museum. It has an old and very beautiful architecture.

Matryoshka From the things, I think, that can represent our country, Matryoshka is an important item. Every traveler from other country buys it, like a souvenir. Matryoshka is a short name of Matryona. This Russian wooden doll shows a Russian girl wearing a brightly coloured polka- dress. But this is not only one doll. It has other dolls inside, they are smaller and smaller. Today you can see many variants of painting these dolls – from fairy-tail characters to politicians.

Brown bear Brown bear is an animal, we cant imagine Russia without. In Peterhoff you can see little bears on leads. You know, even today some tourists from abroad first visiting Russia sometimes ask their guides, Where are bears?

I like our country, because its very beautiful, strong and has so many things to be proud of! Its impossible to describe its beauty.

THANKS!
