The great churches of Kievan Rus', built after the adoption of christianity in 988, were the first examples of monumental architecture in the East Slavic region. The architectural style of the Kievan state, which quickly established itself, was strongly influenced by Byzantine architecture. Early Eastern Orthodox churches were mainly built from wood, with their simplest form known as a cell church. Major cathedrals often featured many small domes, which has led some art historians to infer how the pagan Slavic temples may have appeared.

  • The Motherland Calls Travel Information
    The Motherland Calls Travel Information The Motherland Calls, Statue in Russia Mother Motherland or the Motherland Calls or the Mamayev monument in Russia is a statue of a woman raising her sword to the sky commemorating the Battle of Stalingrad. The statue also serves as a symbol of the Soviet victory during World War II, in which the Red Army defeated the German troops. The statue’s name more literally translates to 'the Motherland that gave birth to me is calling,' referring to the allegorical Mother Russia. At the time of construction, the monument was the tallest sculpture in the world, at 85 meters (279 feet) tall, weighing a hefty 8,000 tons. The sculptor, Yevgeny Vuchetich, used local model Valentina Izotova as the basis for the sculpture. Pre-stressed concrete with wire ropes was used in the construction of the monument. The statue features a serious expression of a call by the mother to her sons to stand up and fight for the motherland. The strong hands, open-mouthed (as if calling) expression and the statue's appearance create a feeling of power. The statue looks the best in all the seasons. Surrounding the statue is the memorial complex which includes the tombstone of Marshal Vasily Chuikov. The sculpture’s hasty construction and the site’s rising water levels have caused the statue to learn considerably over time, prompting concerns that it may collapse. The city is now working to restore it to its upright position. The Motherland Calls Map Facts about Motherland Calls Yevgeny Vuchetich and Nikolai Nikitin designed the statue.

  • Nuclear Education for International Students and Professionals in Russia
    Nuclear Education for International Students and Professionals in Russia Dear friends! Nuclear power today is one of the most important development vectors of the world energy system. It allows not only solving the problem of access to sustainable and highly potent energy source but also serves as a locomotive of the sustainable development, because the use of nuclear technologies inevitably entails the development of the national scientifi c infrastructure, training of high skilled specialists, and development of modern branches of science and applied knowledge. ROSATOM offers its international partners a comprehensive set of services in nuclear, which includes not only construction of a nuclear power plant, its fuel supply throughout Sergey Kirienko, the entire fuel cycle but also the assistance in training of specialists. Director General, The Russian Federation has a vast experience in the export of education, which State Atomic originates from the time of the USSR when thousands of foreign students did their training Energy Corporation in the Soviet higher education establishments. The level and quality of the education we ROSATOM provide are evidenced by the fact that many of graduates of our universities have been able to successfully promote in their countries and now represent national political and intellectual elites. Today in the Russian Federation every opportunity has been created to get educated in nuclear physics at a high quality level. Students from Turkey, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Jordan and other countries where nuclear power plants of Russian design will be built in coming years, are doing their education courses in Russia. The nuclear education system for international students in Russia has been developed with the IAEA’s methodological support.

That experience was good and I felt very safe because our workers work very hard to make this bridge safe for travelling. c) We need bridges to connect with villages, cities and other places where we can’t reach by roads because of the river, pond etc. d) Bamboo bridges are made by local villagers and cement bridges are made by engineers. The cement bridge can bear the weight of heavy vehicles like trucks, buses, etc. whereas a bamboo bridge cannot bear heavy weight. The durability of Bamboo Bridge is short whereas the durability of Cement Bridge is long. 2. (a) Typical materials used in making this bridge are steel, concrete, stone and asphalt. Other materials include iron, timber, aluminum, rubber and other joint materials. (b) Bridge is made across the river. (c) Yes, I have seen animals and vehicles crossing that bridge. (d) If there is no bridge over the river, people would have crossed the river by boat to reach their places. This would have consumed more time. 3.
