Hi all,

In this blog, I will tell you about various interesting/historical/beautiful places (with my photos) in Moscow and in Moscow Oblast.
Before I start, I'll explain for those who dont know what is - Oblast.

Oblast is a type of administrative division of Belarus, Bulgaria, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, Ukraine, and the former Soviet Union and Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes.

It's like State in United States. For those who are poor in geography, I made small maps using QGIS:

So, let's start? One of the attractions of my city (Mytischi, Moscow Oblast) is the Church of Nativity ("Храм Рождества Христова").

In 2000, in honor of the celebration of the 2000th anniversary of the Nativity of Christ, it was decided to build a this church in the center of the city. Although church was built in 2005, this is a remarkable attraction.

Nice shot. The white reflects at night beautifully, just as white should. BTW, you should follow me.

Here is an example of my architectural photography. This is a lighthouse on the Oslo Fjord. It is still in service today.
