Will Pokemon Shiny Gold Beta 6 Released

Birobidzhan - capital of the Soviet Israel "

Ein Reisender, der aus Richtung Chabarowsk kommend in die kleine Stadt Birobidzhán einfährt, wird von einem steinernen Monument at the entrance greeted with the name of the city, written in Cyrillic and Hebrew letters. At the station forecourt stands a giant menorah, and the biggest street in the center is not about Lenin's avenue, but uliza Scholema Alechema, named after the Jewish writers.

In recent weeks, after almost spring-like-feeling minus 8 degrees and sunny, I took yesterday from Vitya Spartak and a trip to the 80,000-inhabitant town of Birobidzhan. The 170 km from Khabarovsk we have traveled on the road in Vitjas car - you drive to the west, roughly parallel to the railway line of the Trans-Siberian railway, past birch forests and a handful of settlements and eventually comes to the capital of the Jewish Autonomous Region ".
had in the 20's Josef Stalin, the idea of creating the territory of Russia a state-like entity for Jews with Yiddish as the official language, a new "promised land" at a time when the creation of Israel was not thinking. For this project, a piece about the size of Brandenburg Taiga chosen with good rail connections in the Far East and with great propaganda effort applied to move many Jews to resettle. 1934 was officially the "Jewreiskaja Avtonomnaja Oblast" founded as the capital of Birobidzhan.
After the 2nd World War II were actually a third of the population Jews. Now most emigrated to Israel or Germany and there are few more Jews there than elsewhere in Russia also. On "traces of Jewish life" I was struck during a city tour not too much to - the menorah on the station forecourt, the unspectacular synagogue, a few monuments still smaller. At the beautiful promenade along the river Bira is an oversized creepy block, the building of the Philharmonic.

On the way back we made another stop at "Wolotschájewskaja Sopka" a, a hill with a bunker-like monument not far from Khabarovsk, in the battle between the Red Army and White Guard Russian Civil war in 1922 recalls - one for the region probably decisive event in which it carried the Bolshevik victory. In Khabarovsk local history museum is housed in a specially equipped room a vast panorama on which the battle is depicted.
