Having settled in Sevastopol, decided to relax in his native Taganrog. After ten years. I recognize a small homeland and not very. I remember and get acquainted again.
Over the tenth of the century, major changes in cities are rare, only the details become different. But without small events, fateful accomplishments are rarely there. It understood this when, returned to his native Taganrog, felt at a party. It was ready for external changes: the construction of residential complexes and shopping centers, improving the state of roads, the opening of sports fields and clubs, the reconstruction of monuments confidently goes in every city. But changes in character, lifestyle, rhythm truly stolen.
Taganrog is used to climbing the morning gourder and go to bed when the last star is pale. Even in our old houses whose age is approaching the century, all night at least some kind of window looks friendly in darkness. What to say about "young" high-rise buildings? Ten years ago, surprisingly wakefulness would have discussed the gossips that they loved to sit on the benches at the entrance. Such a vacation in Taganrog ladies is no longer in fashion: there is no time, and there is nothing to rest on.
Taganrog in continuous motion. Rhythm sets incendiary music, which rushes from loudspeakers located on the central streets. Details of nightlife reveal neon lights clubs. During ten years, the city has learned to become infectiously after sunset.
Taganrog is now on the wheels, its inhabitants of chairs are acquired, tuning, change cars, the number of taxis is growing. Trams, buses, minibuses, trolleybuses quickly carry in the stream of cars. Every 5-10 minutes - an exciting situation. Public transport drivers cleverly maneuver. The price of exciting travel - 12 rubles. Surprisingly: in a decade, the cost increased only by 7 rubles.
Today's Taganrog is attractive for tourists. He successfully holds theatrical seasons, constantly invites famous actors, musicians, organizes matches according to traditional and original (let's say, rugby) sports. The city is quite worthwhile: in the province few of his "fellow" boasts such a significant number of prosperous boutiques, supermarkets, fitness clubs, travel agencies.
Taganrog lost a fair share of conservatism and patriarchality, became bolder, more attractive and healthier (confirmation: units of smokers and drinking on the streets, the mass of people at the countessists with dietary products), but still did not lose their loved ones, lovely features: the attractiveness of bright streets, the courtesy of the inhabitants, Silence parks, cheerful crash of trams.
