This is a relatively small city, the bulk of the population of which are Mari – a proud people who reverently honor their traditions.Despite the fact that the history of Yoshkar-Ola goes deep into the Middle Ages and is full of political events, the city has remained a quiet province.
Founded in 1584, the town with the name Tsarevokokshaysk has long resisted the Russian development of its lands. Local residents participated in the people's militia of Minin and Pozharsky. Only under the son of Ivan the Terrible, Fyodor Ioannovich, Russians and Mari people learned to peacefully coexist in the rebellious city. Crafts began to develop, a prosperous merchant class appeared, and gradually Tsarevokokshaysk turned into a developed shopping center. Local residents especially honor the memory of Fyodor Ioannovich as a peacemaker and benefactor. In one of the main attractions of Yoshkar-Ola, the Tsarevokokshay Kremlin, there is a monument to the great founder. The city received its modern name only in 1835 by order of Nicholas II.
If you watch the webcams of Yoshkar-Ola online, you can note the absence of large industrial plants, noisy highways and other attributes of modern large cities.
Quiet cozy streets with preserved ancient buildings, majestic temples and picturesque embankments of the Malaya Kokshaga River are charming in their own way and attract tourists who want to relax away from the hum of civilization.The most recognizable attraction of Yoshkar-Ola, not without humor, is the "Yoshkin Cat", sitting decorously on a wide bench. This interesting sculpture is installed near the main building of the Mari University and is popular with students: before the exam, it is necessary to rub the cat's nose "for good luck".
The Annunciation Cathedral, built several years ago and recognized as one of the most beautiful Orthodox churches in Russia, is deservedly considered the hallmark of Yoshkar-Ola. Built in the best traditions of Russian church architecture, the cathedral invariably attracts tourists with its elegant facade and golden domes.
