In October 2007, the project "7 Wonders of Russia" was launched.

Its goal is to revive patriotism, attract attention to the restoration and preservation of unique historical, cultural and natural objects on the territory of Russia, by holding a competition to determine the seven most outstanding natural and historical monuments.

The “Seven Wonders of Russia” competition aroused great interest among Russian and foreign tourists to the Kungur Ice Cave.

As a result of the “Seven Wonders of Russia” competition, the influx of tourists sharply increased; if earlier up to 120 thousand people visited the cave a year, then in six months the “Prikamsk Miracle” was visited by about 90 thousand tourists. There were often cases when tourists could not get into the cave due to sold tickets.



Chusovaya River - the pearl of the Urals

A person who has at least once visited the sun and wind cannot forget the huge stars in the dark night sky, the mysterious whisper of trees, the mysterious twilight of caves and the fantastic whims of the wind, which created amazing stone figures, majestic coastal cliffs and welcoming soft coastal meadows.

Chusovaya has unique features: it is the only river flowing through two parts of the world - Asia and Europe. You can enjoy the beauty of the coastal cliffs and admire the majestic pictures of the middle Urals, from the height of their 100-meter peaks

Chusovaya is the most picturesque river in the Middle Urals. The length of this Ural pearl is 592 kilometers. The river is given fabulous beauty by limestone and dolomite giants - “STONES”. The stones rise above the water from 10 to 115 meters and stretch along the shore from 30 meters to 1.5 kilometers. Many rocks on Chusovaya are taken under state protection and are natural monuments.

The river has truly become a cherished dream for many tourists.

In the upper reaches of Chusovaya, ironworks began to be actively built on the basis of rich local deposits: Polevskoy (1722), Vasilyevo-Shaitansky (1732), Revdinsky (1734), Seversky (1735), etc.

You can look into the underground kingdom of caves (...the Miracle Cave. Its mysterious and amazing kingdom, either hospitably opens its huge halls, or frighteningly narrows its corridors. In absolute darkness it seems White speleologist. She is breathing. She is alive!…)

See blue Lake(...it is unique in the nature of its origin and almost sacred. The water is clean and transparent. The trees, rustling their leaves, bent over the blue surface, hiding this miracle from everyone and keeping a secret hidden in the depths of the waters forever...)

Walk part of the route along which in 1581 Ermak sought access to the Siberian rivers (... the Mezhevaya Utka River turned out to be shallow, and the squad, having gone down the Chusovaya on their plows, entered the waters of the Serebryanka River...)

Back in the 1960s, an all-Union tourist route along the river from the village of Sloboda to Chusovoy, served by the Kourovskaya tourist center (since 1987 it has been called “Chusovaya Tourist Base”). Every year, up to 3,000 people took part in trips along the river and its tributaries.


On the right bank, 326 km from the camp site in Kourovka, there are the ruins of penal colony No. 35 of special regime, which was part of the Gulag system. The construction of the Vashkurskaya and Ponyshskaya hydroelectric power stations was planned here. Among tourists, this place is called “Stor”.

Monument to Demidov

(Sverdlovsk region.)

The Demidov Cross was erected in honor of the birth of Nikita’s son at this place by State Councilor Ankify Demidov on May 31, 1779 (the monumental memorial cross is made of solid stone, 2.6 meters high)

Mirror area: 3.68 km2

Altitude: 160.9 m

The lake has crystal clear water and white quartz sand. The lake has a double bottom, and in the spring a curious phenomenon is observed here - the water is bubbling: this is probably how peat gases come out.

The depth reaches 6 meters.

Legends say that the lake was created by evil spirits, which is why there is no access to it. It is believed that the lake is never calm during the day and at night the waves rage on it, and in the middle there is such a whirlpool that if you swim up to it in a boat, it will instantly suck you in.

The Basegi Nature Reserve is a real pearl of the harsh Ural region.

S= 37,935 ha.

Charm wildlife of this taiga in 1982 led to the creation state reserve, on the basis of which it was also planned to study middle taiga forests.

The reserve was created to preserve the original nature of the Cis-Ural region, which is a mountain taiga located on a ridge.

This territory is the highest part of the Middle Urals and is located on the watershed of the tributaries of the Chusovaya River - Usva and Vilva.

Basegi is also of great scientific value from a geological point of view.

Due to the fairly high diversity of mammals, birds, amphibians, etc., scientific research is often carried out at the base of Basegi, so the territory attracts a variety of scientists.

The flora of the reserve has not yet been sufficiently studied, which practically makes it possible to make your first scientific discovery or find a calling in life.

In all areas of the reserve there are historical and archaeological monuments - mounds and burial mounds belonging to the Sarmatian culture of the 7th-3rd centuries BC, as well as to the tribes of the late nomads of the Middle Ages. 50 The flora and fauna of the reserve is very rich:, mammal species , 17 184 bird species, fish species which is due, among other things, to the fact that there are three landscape zones represented here. Particularly widespread are the sub-belts of mountain tundras, subalpine meadows, open forests and crooked forests -

Not everyone knows that so close - right on the territory of our region - in this reserve you can find such rare mammals in our area as the badger, wolverine and black polecat. There are also bears, wolves, foxes, stoats and martens, and great amount rodents serve as good food for most of these predators. In addition to game birds, there are such predators as the peregrine falcon and white-tailed eagle, as well as big variety

songbirds. At the same time, the list of bird species found on the territory of Baseg is constantly updated. Many plants are listed in the Red Book or are simply quite rare. Therefore, it is necessary to be extremely careful about this forest pearl of the Middle Urals. In the Basegi Nature Reserve you can enjoy the beauty of nature





native land , it is enough to see all this once to understand that it is no longer possible to forget it. If you ever drive along the Perm-Ekaterinburg highway, be sure to stop by small town Kungur. The city has its own interesting story and since 1970 officially recognized

historical city

Russia

The city has its own coat of arms and flag.

The city was rebuilt by 1649 by settlers led by governors from Cherdyn and Solikamsk, when a letter came from the Great Sovereign Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov, which said: “It was ordered in Kungur, having found a place where there is a support, and build a fort near the support.”

The high and steep rise provided a natural defense against attack. The city burned down, was destroyed and rebuilt again. The official date of its foundation is considered to be 1663.

At the very beginning of 1774, Tatar, Bashkir and rebel Cossack detachments of the “thief” Pugachev under the command of Salavat Yulaev and Ivan Kuznetsov, with a total number of about 11 thousand, approached Kungur. The Kungur governor fled on December 27, 1773 with all the officials to the Chusovsky towns to the Stroganovs , for which he was subsequently deprived of his ranks and exiled to Vyatka. The organization of defense was undertaken by the burgomaster Philip Krotov and the president of the magistrate Ivan Khlebnikov, who armed the townspeople without exception and turned to the surrounding towns for help. After the Pugachev events, in 1775, F. Krotov and the merchant Emelyan Khlebnikov received swords, and Kungur was forgiven the arrears of 5069 rubles. 95 kopecks

The streets of the old city remember the Pugachev riot, the ringing of the Decembrists' shackles, the noise of the fairs. In 1790, Alexander Radishchev arrived in Kungur on his way to exile. For the period from November 28 to December 4, he stayed in the governor’s house. About Kungur he wrote this: ancient fortress, i.e. a fence with towers, in which there are gates. On the square in front of the fence there are 20 cast iron cannons on carriages, of which three are usable... The place is beautiful, there are fields all around...

In 1837, Vasily Zhukovsky visited Kungur, accompanying the future Emperor Alexander II on his study tour of Russia. According to legend, he spoke about the city with an epigram:

“The city is in a hole, the people are drunk.”

The city is located on the banks of the Sylva River and the Ireni and Shakva rivers flowing into it.


Bridge over the Sylva river in the city center

The city developed through crafts and trade. TOthe successful Alexei Gubkin founded the tea trade in Kungur, which, through the efforts of him and other Kungur entrepreneurs, soon turns the city into major center wholesale tea trade.

Stone-cutting crafts, the creation of ceramics, and leather production were opened

Do you know what the expression “Permyak - salty ears” means? Permian salt is fine and white. It seems to be covered in blood and sweat, but still clean. It was salt that made it famous in the 17th century Perm region. There was not enough salt in Russia. It was bought abroad, it was worth its weight in gold, and they searched for it literally as actively as gold during the gold rush. The Kama region was rich in outlets of salty groundwater - brines. Salt was boiled on Solikamsk soil under difficult conditions. Poverty is undisguised everywhere. The barns were salted through. Here they sweat salty solutions and cry salty tears. Salt is in the air, deposited on the mustache, beard... They carry salt in bags on their backs, the brine flows onto the ears, corroding them... Hence the saying becomes clear... And even now, in the vicinity of Usolye and Solikamsk, you can find springs, the banks of which, even in the summer, seem to be dusted with white snow - these are salt crystals from dried spray . Elks, wild boars, and wolves come to these springs to lick the salt.
