This is the fifth largest city in Russia situated at the intersection of 2 huge rivers – Oka and Volga. Nizhny Novgorod is a capital of Volga Federal district, trade and industrial Centre. A lot of traditional Russian arts were born in Nizhniy Novgorod – Khokhloma, Gorodets, Metal decoration etc. The great Russian poet – Pushkhin had lands here. Nizhniy Novgorod region is a motherland of a great Russian Saint – Seraphim Sarovskiy, so this is a place of pilgrimage of Orthodox believers. In the soviet times Nizhny Novgorod (Gorkiy) was a closed city, so people still don't have a lot of chances to communicate with foreigners. Foreign languages are not very prevailing here, and it is useful to know Russian a little bit at least to be able to communicate with locals. People are very friendly, and appreciate every effort when foreigners trying to speak their mother tongue. Interest of youth to foreign cultures is growing every day. Inhabitants in Nizhny lead a measured mode of life; their life’s is not so intensive like in Moscow and Saint Petersburg. At the same time, there are a lot of opportunities for self-realization and cultural life here – extreme sports, night clubs, museums, theatres, parks, fitness centers, libraries etc. Everybody can find a way to be satisfied in his interests and hobbies.

    FORUM 18 NEWS SERVICE, Oslo, Norway http://www.forum18.org/ The right to believe, to worship and witness The right to change one's belief or religion The right to join together and express one's belief 10 July 2013 RUSSIA: Orthodox relics block Jehovah's Witness meeting By Geraldine Fagan, Forum 18 News Service A written Russian official refusal to allow Jehovah's Witness to meet for worship in Nizhny Novgorod Region, made in consultation with a local Orthodox bishop, provides rare evidence that state opposition to Jehovah's Witnesses is fuelled by support for the Russian Orthodox Church (Moscow Patriarchate), Forum 18 News Service has found. "As the administration, we conduct all our activity in close contact with the [Moscow Patriarchate] Diocese," the official who drafted the refusal, Svetlana Zakharova, confirmed to Forum 18. "There's not a single question affecting the interests of one side or the other that we don't decide collegially." It is highly unusual for Russian officials to make such admissions, especially in writing, Forum 18 notes. Elsewhere, more Jehovah's Witness texts have been banned, and raids on and detentions and fines of Jehovah's Witnesses and Falun Gong practitioners continue. The government is also set to increase punishments for "extremist" activity under the Criminal Code.
