- In this video we're looking at some old houses in Russia built by prisoners of war in the 1940s. Also a Russian wooden house nicknamed 'gingerhouse' built in 1880s. And visit to a chocolate store to make a perfect day:) #RussianVlogs #LifeinRussia #urbanexploring

I was amazed by this candid store clerk and seriousness in introducing her products just for a casual visitor!
So was I! not very typical indeed.
Maybe she thought RP was a really cute guy?
@@mickey1849 she mentioned she had only been working there for 4 months. so I think she was trying to be very professional and tell us everything she knew about the place. I will buy her a chocolate bar sometime as a way of saying thank you
@@RussianPlus Better do that while Lana's not around. ;)
I love watching life , history, people, community of Russia..Keep it up!
Same!
Very interesting. The German built houses look to have thick walls based on how the window openings look. The Lady at Maria was super helpful...now we are headed to the kitchen to find some sweets.
My grandfather was a cabinetmaker, so I can really appreciate the ornate woodwork trim on the traditional Russian houses. The Soviet-style apartment block reminded me of the old projects (housing for lower-income people) in Chicago; Google "Cabrini Green" to see what I mean. The Maria chocolate shop looks delightful. I like how friendly and enthusiastic the shop clerk was; she took real pride in the merchandise.
Really enjoying your tours of Yekaterinburg. I was there for work while I was living in Russia a few years ago. Would have been great to have you as a tour guide. Guess this is the next best thing. Спасибо .
Love from Greece! !!
Not fair, you're showing us all those goodies and we're stuck here in lockdown .
I'm just arrived here in this channel.
And I'm enjoying a lot.
Yekaterinburg looks like a nice city to live, some nice historic buildings.
Well, yes, but actually, no...
popindosin228 It’s actually a very nice and modern city. I’d say it’s in top 5 big cities of Russia. czcams.com/video/vKIg03hcD1A/video.html
It's a very pretty place!
Visited very briefly in 1997 and I liked it.
Nice..!! But I would like to see if You could get an interview with the little old lady in her house... Maybe next time. 👍
Next time!
Becareful with those babushki they are tough ladies and can dance!!! - czcams.com/video/BgUstrmJzyc/video.html
Semper Fi
And drink lots of homemade wine))
Enjoying your videos. They are real life. Also enjoy seeing Lana, she also seems real. Thanks and please keep posting!
Ооо ... Такие красивые дома! Берегите их хорошо, пожалуйста! Кроме этого, хочу сказать что мне очень нравится твой канал. Продолжайте снимать, пожалуйста! :)
Bro if possible, make a video about Kaliningrad .
Yes that would be epic
Well guys, look the map: where is Ekaterineburg located and where is Kaliningrad. Seems about 4000 km between them.
Wow ! Beautiful Houses 😍.I have seen Russia through Nomadic Indian and Nomad Subham's eyes , they both are Indian Vlogger .That was one perspective about Russia and Russian people, I was so overwhelmed to see Russian hospitality, now I've become so curious about Russia and I wanna see Russia through the perspective of Russians. I was watching 1420 and you tube recommended me your channel. I never expected that I would see Russia this depth. I feel just like I am roming around my neighborhood in India. I'm learning Russian too 😊. A new subscriber 💚
Viacheslav, we especially loved seeing the artisan chocolatier shop Maria. Thank you for the tour. We hope to see more fun tours like this. Maybe Lana can taste the chocolates and show us the inside telling us what you both think of the flavor? Where is your Patreon link in your video description? We all want to support you making candid and personal shows.
Glad you enjoyed it! thats a good idea! my patreon is this www.patreon.com/russianplus
Thank you guys!
it’s very good that you guys show and support a bit of local business in these difficult times
Hehehe.. maybe you cant see but I am smiling also... :) TY (thank you) I enjoyed that..
Hey Slava & Lana! Another cool video. I had no idea about the German houses in Russia...very interesting. I too wish you had gotten to talk to the older lady and viewed her garden. Maybe next time. I like how friendly the people are you meet. Reminds me of our Southern Hospitality here in Georgia, USA. Take care friends and keep the videos coming!
I know. I wanna try some other time. The other owners were nice also. They just didn't like the idea of a camera. I don't blame them. I'm probably not the first one :)
@@RussianPlus You and Lana are so friendly too, it makes the other people comfortable and they open up more. Keep up the good work and I can't wait for the next video. I would also like to hear more about your time spent in Tennessee, USA. Love to know what you think about the Southern people and culture. Your english is amazing!
Great Video Sir as always
👍❤️💯
Love your content and the way you provide us with unusual information is really awesome. Love from Pakistan 🇵🇰🇷🇺
The building with many doors is really a building with storage rooms and with cellars (as we call it "погреб"). There is a district here in Volgograd called Angarsky, many years ago it used to be a settlement near the city, there are two-stored houses there with only 2 apartments on one floor, 4 apartments in one part of an apartment block. And every apartment has its own piece of land with a garden and such a storage room with a cellar. People live in the city and like in the countryside at the same time 😊
As I thought Russia is all elevated, but seen all Russians vloggers, I love there countyside views so Amazing and very natural, like in a movie, I know Russia is bigland country.. love your vlog sir, appreciate from PH.
Wonderful story with good editing. Your good audio track makes the video pleasant to watch. Your English sounds uniquely southern....really cool. Good job.
Thank you Paul. No matter how much I try I still sound southern haha
I love these videos. You're a great host.
Those Soviet era apartment buildings are colloquially referred to as 'Commie blocks.' Lana is a great camerawoman, btw!
im liking these videos... 2 thumbs up.
also the MARIA was so great, i ended up opening my frigo to take out my chocolate n ice cream.
insanity, i am on diet🤣🤣
Another wonderful, warm, kind, informative video. Excellent work. I hope ye both can stay providing us with such rich insights . Thank you
Lovely houses!
Indeed! And you have a lovely name😉
@@ibchristensen189 well so do you my Danish friend. I guess you're Danish because of IB letters😄. I'm from Oslo.
So beautiful your country. The works of arts are so amazing. I love your country. I need some ice cream.
Subscribed from India loved watching your video. Indian Rupee and Russian Rouble have same value. I love russian people they are very friendly.
Thank you so much 😀
Awesome video !! Thank you very much .
What a wonderful city. Thank you for sharing!
Aha! I see a couple of German cars (Volkswagens) in front of the German house. It gives it a small ethnic German touch! Haha! Blessings from Eric in Minnesota. Hope all is well over there, I'm learning my Russian with hopes of visiting Russia! You should visit the Justus Walker farm, I see his videos (in English, my Russian is still weak) and they are inspiring. I want to visit him! And maybe you too! :)
As usual, I loved your vlog❤
WOW how cool! You remembered the desserts, very nice! Thanks.
That store looks really nice and the chocolate bars looked good orange and raspberry wow I'm drooling LOL
Nice video as always.
Thanks for video
Beautiful story
Have you ever visit Volga. My family came from Marx's. I'm a German Russian.? Great video. God bless you all. Family name is Gunther or Guenther.
Very interesting architecture. The gingerbread house is pretty and it’s a cool nickname
Found it fascinating, great presentation, as usual
Thank you for sharing. So interesting about the German houses. Well, watching your videos, like videos from othe videbloggers around this world, is my way of travelling for the time beeing. I will be back in Russia again as soon as possible. Wishing you and Lana, a nice weekend!
Thanks for watching! Have a good weekend!
Love from Scotland Please keep up what you doing :)
I really enjoyed your video,.. thanks
Realy enjoyed this video, thank you. Greetings from Rotterdam nl.
I’ve worked on some German houses that were built for their officers during the war, renovations. On British territory.
I WOULD HAVE SPEND $30 IN THE CHOCOLATE SHOP!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
GREETINGS FROM THE UK , BEEN WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS FOR MONTHS NOW, FIND IT FASCINATING ABOUT THE LOCAL PEOPLE AND CULTURE!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I really like your channel as it delves deep into common everyday living in Russia. Thanks!
Great video, simple and real life, stay safe and healthy and happy.
Well done , again. I agree with Chris White. Vegetation seems to cope with the harsh winters. Marvellous to see how standards have advanced in the cities at least. Maria's was an eye opener.
lovrly video. milllion thanks👌👌👌
Architecture, anthropology, history and economics - all in one video! One of the reasons I love this channel.
My only dislike is to see lovely Russian women covering their faces with those bloody masks. :(
I agree it is a shame to see women like that!
But if they're ugly it's okay.
A woman because the coronavirus is everywhere!
Gosh, in Australia to buy a kilo of of homemade pelmeni (made in Aus) costs AUD 35.00! - so I make my own but wow, would love to be able to just buy a bag for a third of the price it costs in Australia.
I love when you visit local shops and cafes, i hope you do it more frequently. Whenever you are in some city or garden just visit any close cafe it will be great so we can see the Russian Vibe and people along with Russian nature. Regards
Volkswagen cars look differently in Russia. These sedan models don’t exist in Europe.
Good job Sergei! You're a good tour guide.
Thanks. My name is Slava though:)
Это ваше keep your eyes open... понравилось) Неплохо
Nice video!
my favorite youtube channel
Спасибо большое! Отличие. 😊
Came across this site by accident. Have watched two videos very enjoyable. Shows how inventive the ordinary Russian people are. They also like to show how they do things.
Thanks show me this place ...... nice
I agree with the other comments, you should try going back to that house and meet that woman....she’s famous? Please go back and try one more time getting her to the door. I would love to her her story. Thank you again, I really enjoy your videos. -Stephen, Ohio 🇺🇸
Amazing place.
i think those houses protected by the city hall to be closed in special times .. and the woman she can give you a lot of stories about. keep searching like this amazing buildings.
German houses.. built in mid to late 1800's are all over my town. I live in one with gingerbread.
Amazing how normal I think this and you are amazed of it!!
Gingerbread house hahahaha AWESOME !!!!! love it
Enjoyed the video. Please show historical things about WW II and things during Soviet period. Love from Kerala state in India.
What a great sweet shop. They can have all my money!
Very lovey area. Does it rain there a lot? All that food is very inexpensive. Do they sell internationally? Would love to try some of those jams
I had been raining that day. Overall I think it's average.
Slava, I like the way you walk, swinging your arms. It would be nice if you would return to these German houses and hopefully talk with the lady who welcomes visitors.
Hi,nice video,wish we could see her house from inside too dear
Now I know where to go when we are in Yekaterinburg next time , thanks !
Your English accent is something between New York & Texas. It says something interesting about where you learned English. You sound a lot like Kevin Bacon.
Awesome. As long as you understand me its all good:)
@@RussianPlus We are proud to call you a hillbilly! If you were missing a few teeth and with a beer belly it would be even more authentic!
Nothing related to any ,
I like your videos. Unveiling mystery world.🌹🇵🇰
German built houses are cute, with the steep gable roofs, fascia and soffits wrap around the gable ends, the semi-circle balconies and wrought iron balusters, they're German fairy tale homes.
Gingerbread house is amazing, the domed roofs, incredible wood work required craftsmanship, artistic talent and a lot of work to build.
Maria has a nice building too. What a place, every in there is delicious, and I'll bet the coffee is excellent too. Thanks for the video, it's good to see Russia.
Good
Thank again for another visual into Russia. I like your videos.
I really enjoy your tours of neighborhoods in Russia.
Thank you. Sometimes I just feel like going out there and exploring with no particular plan. All my street interviews are completely random. I'm so glad that some people like what I do.
I love watching history' architecture ' community language ' culture' and landscape of Russia thank you friend of Russian plus for your information
cool
when everyone has the same housenumber in the street nobody can blame anyone of waking up at the neighbours house. For me this would be a problem after a good night out... ;)
The house looks like it's a semi detached?Beautiful homes.I can see why the couple would want to live in the houses compared to the apartments.Shame the greenery is not looked after surrounding the apartment building ,you could make it look quite nice on the outside.Very interesting!
You're right. They're semi-detached. They are definitely a great addition to the neighborhood
@@grandmajane2593 I see your point but feel if a place looks clean and tidy,people tend to respect the area more IMHO
That wood house is gorgeous. It it were in Canada it would have been beautifully, meticulously maintained and protected.
Is your CZcams channel popular inside Russia? A little or a lot? Is it growing? Where are most listeners from? I’m watching in Texas, USA. BTW, many of us highly respect your country.
Prior to starting watching this channel and a few other channels about life and places in Russia, I used to think for some reason that fancy stores like that candy shop in this video are mostly missing from the country. I would think that they still live almost like in USSR times as far as the availability of fancy goods and services go. Turns out I couldn't be more wrong. Would love to check out at least some of the places Slava is showing on his channel.
I have huge interest in Russia. watching this video from Bangladesh.
I want to eat chocolate with raspberries from Maria in an old German style house. I need to get a Passport. Well, maybe next year. Great video. I found the old style German type housing, and gates, to be fascinating.
it definitely looks like пряник
Great job. P0ssible to know culture cities people of Russia otherwise it wouldnot have been possible for me directly take and see them keep doing this about this great country
Very interesting vlog. Like the old 1890 house and the german houses. Slava, is there a direct international flight to Yekaterinburg from Singapore? I'm interested to go there.
Thank you. I don't think there is a direct flight. Last time I went to Singapore I had to fly to Bangkok first.
@@RussianPlus Thank you for the information Slava.
do you have any videos on museums please?
Thank for showing so much detail on the Sekivanoce House love the Old Russian homes it amazing the skill of the wood designs and workers back 120 years ago. I think Alana has better taste in chocolate than you do. You should do a book on all the old homes in Russia.
William Craft Brumfield of the US has produced many books on the topic
lovely exposure to russian soviet architect.
it still exists in ex USSR countries
My dream to Russia coming am lavit rassia 🇷🇺❤️❤️🇷🇺❤️❤️🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳❤️❤️ love from India
Nice video. Serbia. Bay 👋
The Russian apartment block gives such a familiar feeling though having never been to Russia
Зовите в гости блоггера Bald and Bankrupt он тут вам всех разговорит и со всеми выпьет :-)
Please go to Krasnoturjinsk and say привет to my babushka. :D
Have you ever thought about using @what3words to log the location of the houses and other interesting places you visit?
8:56 "We make our own chocolate. We bring it from GREECE(!) in chocolate capsules".
I was also confused haha. I don't think Greece grows chocolate either..
Maybe Greece imports chocolate and then put it in capsules of metal or something like that?🤔
@@ibchristensen189 exactly. well, something like this). in russia Chocolate is the name of what chocolate bars and the bars themselves are made of, which are called Shokoladka (Chocolate). receive raw chocolate and format it into chocolate bars and chocolates. translation difficulties. lol.
@@user-uz4td8rl7t Thank you for trying to answer. It's not easy to translate😁
