Kazan is the unique place cause it is the perfect example of peaceful coliving together of Christians and Muslims. The city population is basically 50% Russian (Christians), 50% Tatar (Muslims). Churches are standing right next to mosques. Everybody respect traditions of the others and dont tell them how they should behave. A girl can go through a street wearing a hijab or a short skirt and nobody will tell her anything. If you want to drink an alcohol you will find plenty of bars and if you want to eat at a halal place there will be a lot of them as well. Its a shame that there are not so many places in the world with ppl attitude towards each other like in Kazan.

Because basically we all are Russians, its a mistake to call Russians only Christians or that Tatars are only muslim. Our people were living together for so long and as neighbors living on a large flat locations connected with rivers, we have really close and complicated national histories. All love and respect and love to people in Tatarstan, I will come there soon hopefully

Это не правда! В Казани кроме татар проживают удмурты, марийцы, чуваши и русские. И причина этому проста - эти народы просто соседи с Татарстаном. А как известно большинство этих народов предпочитают носить русские имена и фамилии. Я не думаю что процент именно русских высок. А еще есть крешен татары - это крещенные - у них тоже русские имена и фамилии.

***PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE COMMENTING*** ALL of the information that I speak about within these videos comes from the knowledge of a local guide. If I misspeak or provide incomplete facts, I do not mean to offend or mislead anyone. I am trying to provide as much information as possible within a very short video, so for that, I apologize if I do not completely cover a particular topic. - With that said, in this particular video, some of you have questioned my statement about "Russian soldiers attacking the city of Kazan in the 15th Century" (thus forcing them to move the city to where modern day Kazan is)... - This is one of those times where I should have told the full story or nothing at all - LESSON LEARNED. 🤦🏻♂️ - There is A TON of information about this place in history... First, you are correct in saying that, in 1438, the Bulgar fortress Kazan (ISKE-Kazan) was captured by the ousted Golden Horde Khan Ulugh Muhammad - who originally moved the fortress to the modern location. The part I am speaking about (taught to me by our local guide) is the Siege of Kazan in 1552. Tsar Ivan the Terrible (Russian) conquered the city and massacred the majority of the population. The surviving Tatar population was moved 50 kilometers away from the city and Bolgar was forcibly settled by Russian farmers and soldiers. - One last thing, I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again - ANY AGGRESSIVE OR RUDE COMMENTS about a place, culture, or individuals WILL BE DELETED. This channel is not for trolls. This channel is about positive travel experiences and how incredible this world is, beyond what you may see in the media. There is enough negativity in this world, my comment section will not be one of them. However, I do encourage constructive criticism and help on any information that I may have failed to cover in these videos. - THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING, and I hope you enjoyed the video. 🙏

Russia has so much to offer, nature that puts some famous American landmarks to shame. But I would never have discovered this if I didn’t know and travel with Russian friends. Russia could do so much more to attract foreign visitors. Stopping the bureaucratic nightmare to receive and register a visa would already be a good step in the right direction.

For example the Bolgars some of these people use conveniently in history originate from Thracians from the Balkans but after the floods that are historically recorded 6000 bc people migrated in different directions, one of them is Asia where they slowly came back home. They are also the first Slavs, Slav comes from the word Slovo СЛОВО (the word of God), that is why the Chirilic alphabet was created by the Bulgarians in the Bulgarian empire so it can be worthy to spread the WORD of God, that is why the Bulgarian language or (OLD Church Slovonik) was spread throughout other nations which later adopted the Slavic culture, Language and ofcource Orthodox Religion.

I implore everyone to read Ahmed Bin Fadlan’s (أحمد بن فضلان) travel book commentary in the first half of the 10th century. He talks about Khazars, Slavs, Volga Bulgars, and Vikings. They also adopted his diplomatic mission in a very fictional manner in the movie “The 13th Warrior” starring Antonio Banderas and Omar AlSharif, which was solely based on Michael Crichton's novel “Eaters of the Dead.”

Well, I’ve always read it over and over again in its original text, in Arabic. But, let me see what I can find in English, and I’ll compare it with the original text.

He actually did, in the original Arabic text with the following words; الصقالبة والروس meaning Slavs and the Rus

And he mentioned the Vikings as northmen using the following word in Arabic; رجال الشمال which translates to northmen.

Да с дачами они меня порадовали. :-) А еще в Казани, учился Толстой и Ленин... Один доучился с трудом, второй вообще не доучился, но ему есть памятник на площади возле института, народ шутит, что это памятник единственному недоучившемуся студенту, кстати эту площадь студенты называют "сковородка", где встретимся? -на сковородке... :-) Yes, the cottages they pleased me. :-) And in Kazan, Tolstoy and Lenin studied... One survived with difficulty, the second did not finish my studies, but he has a monument in the square near the Institute, people can tell that the monument was only half-educated student, by the way this area students call "the frying pan", where do we meet? -in a skillet... :-)

Живу в Казани, Учусь в центре и так рада, что могу видеть всю эту красоту каждый день. Казань - хороший город, а главное добрый Мое отсутствие знания татарского языка совершенно никак не сказывается на качестве жизни, так как ОБЯЗАТЕЛЬНО каждый человек в Казани владеет русским языком в совершенстве. Просто некоторые мои друзья боялись приезжать в татарстан из-за различия в языках и менталитете Татары - просто очень добрые русские)

@@Zuzyandr after 1361 the city was no longer considered Bulgarian. How Kazan taken by Ivan the Terrible ceased to be a Tatar city because the Tatars were forbidden to live closer than 30 miles from the fortress. And all the aliens attacked the Ardynians.

@@user-fx7pv1gt6n is there documental proofs for it? There was many reasons for Volga Bulgarian culture decadance and Bolghar devastation wasn't the only one. And another point - Bolghar wasn't purely bulgarian city for many years before it just because it was one of the largest multicultural center on Middle Volga and one of the largest cities of Golden Horde.
