Fountain with Golden Statues

Fountain with Golden Statues

Here is one more picture of the beautiful fountain "Friendship of Nations" which I took almost 1 year ago. The fountain is one of the main attractions at the All-Russian Exhibition Center (VVTs). The Exhibition was founded at 1939 as agricultural exhibition of Soviet Union. During the years of Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) this exhibition was closed, and was only reopened in 1954 after death of Stalin (1953). The Fountain has gilded statues of maidens in the national costumes of the sixteen Soviet republics demurely encircle a golden wheat sheaf. In 2006 it has been renovated, so that you can see that the statues are shining gold as like recently made.

Arthur was our guide for the trip to two wonderful cities in the Golden Ring, Vladimir and Suzdal. We absolutely loved the whole trip, Arthur's knowledge of local history and points of interest is vast and impressive. We went in his car, which is very well kept, and Arthur proved to be a very good and careful driver, he knows his way around and we were delighted with the way he conducted himself. He is caring, intelligent and entertaining guide and a good person too. We will absolutely engage Arthur's services again next time we visit Russia. Thank you Arthur for your hard work and we look forward to see you again in the future!
