I love travelling, i love visit biggest tourist attractions but i've never did it in my own city where i born and raised. That's why we visited Memorial complex «The National Museum of the History of the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945».

The main exposition block is a three-storey building which is simultaneously a pedestal for Motherland Monument. Motherland Monument is a unique structure.

The pedestal is 62 meters high from the bottom up to the point of the sword, the total height is 102 meters, and the weight is approximately 500 tons. Two unique elevators - sloping and vertical - were installed inside the sculpture.
