The Vast History
Yes, its history fascinates me, especially about the Romanov. The 1997 animated feature anastasia got me interested in Russian history, and I was very blessed to study más about the Romanov and the Soviet Union later on!
The Architecture
I adore the architect of their historical sites, especially in both Moscow and St. Petersburg. If Peter the Great did not make St. Petersburg Russia's Venice, the city will be depressing and unattractive!
The Music
Both classical and local música have been very popular in the country, Tchaikovsky's música especially his ballet fascinates me since watching Sleeping Beauty. There was a number on Riverdance where they perform their local dance in it!
Thank tu Russia
So, I hope that this country will help tu for those who haven't been like myself!
