Live webcams Myskov - cities of Russia

Myskov webcams, which this site offers to everyone to watch online, open an overview of a small city in the Kemerovo region, stretching along the banks of the Tom River. The settlement, which originated in the 17th century, whose inhabitants were engaged in agriculture and fishing, officially became a workers' settlement in 1949. In the years after the end of the Great Patriotic War in the Myskovsky region, the development of a new coal deposit called Tom-Usinsky began. Brick and asphalt plants, Tom-Usinskaya state district power station, enterprises for the production of reinforced concrete, building materials and expanded clay, as well as a timber transshipment base were built in record time. In 1956, the expanded settlement received the status of a city of regional subordination. A large-scale construction of multi-storey residential buildings and the establishment of urban infrastructure began. The notorious crisis of the 1990s led to the bankruptcy of most industrial enterprises in Biysk. The city was on the verge of desolation, local residents began to actively leave in search of a better prospect. Now Biysk keeps afloat, thanks to the working concrete goods plant, the largest state district power station and thermal power plant in the region, the Sibirginskaya mine and several other enterprises. But the city's population is steadily declining.

The surroundings of Biysk are covered with taiga, which, combined with clear mountain rivers, creates unique landscapes.

The picturesque nature, rich in generous gifts from various types of berries, nuts and medicinal herbs, is the main attraction of Shoria. This is the name of this area, where the indigenous population is a small nationality - the Shors. Particularly beautiful natural landscapes open up from the sandy beaches of Pritom, where the townspeople love to relax in the summer. The view of mountain slopes and sharp rocks descending steeply into the river water invariably inspires unforgettable photo shoots.
The traditional city sights of Myski are concentrated in its ancient central part. One of them is the Historical and Ethnographic Museum, which presents 1200 exhibits. Museum staff also conduct interesting tours and lectures.

The Myskov City Cultural Center organizes festive events, festivals, concerts and thematic exhibitions for the citizens.

Several creative teams are constantly working in the Central Committee, actively participating in the cultural life of the city. If you watch Myskov webcams online, you can see a small but very picturesque St. Panteleimon Monastery, which is located outside the city limits from the side of the village of Bezrukovo. The territory of the monastery is relatively small, but carefully groomed. Surrounded by dense forests, this cozy place evokes peace and tranquility.
Another religious attraction of Myski is the Temple of the Hodegetria Icon of the Mother of God. The magnificent building is made in white and blue colors and decorated with golden domes sparkling in the sun. Right in the courtyard of the church there is a monument of memory and an Eternal Flame in honor of the Mysk warriors who fell in the Afghan war and in all Chechen conflicts. Right outside the walls of the temple, an old, but still functioning church has been preserved. A small wooden building with a chapel has a unique flavor and attracts tourists no less than a new temple.

The excursion program around Myski necessarily includes a visit to the city's monuments.

There are quite a lot of sculptures of various subjects in the city. Many are characterized by monumentality and grand scale in the spirit of the Soviet era. These include the traditional monument to the leader of the proletariat, installed on a high pedestal near the city administration.
The memorial to the participants of the Great Patriotic War impresses with its impressive size and power. The sculptural group depicting a Soldier and a Worker, as well as several bas-reliefs convey the harsh atmosphere of a difficult and heroic era for the country.
The monument to Arkady Gaidar is loved by the townspeople for its touching nostalgic mood. It depicts the writer himself reading a book to a little girl clinging to his shoulder and greedily catching every word. The sculpture is often photographed by tourists, trying to capture the vivid emotions skillfully conveyed by its author. Attention to the memory of Gaidar is not accidental. It is known that after the revolution the writer took part in military operations near Myski.
In general, the atmosphere of the city itself seems to return to the Soviet past, thanks to the streets that have hardly changed since the pre-perestroika period. Some buildings are still decorated with coats of arms and other symbols of the USSR, and the quiet streets are buried in greenery in the old fashioned way.

If visiting the city is not included in the immediate plans, then you can watch Myskov webcams online and go on an exciting virtual journey right from home.
