Rich Russia: Yekaterinburg — this city on Trans-Siberian could be russian capital

Yekaterinburg is the capital of the Ural and a first stop of the Trans-Siberian Railway.
It's one of the richest Russian cities and the fourth city by population in the country. Once it almost became Russian capital!
It is historically known to be the place where in 1918 the Bolsheviks murdered Tsar Nicholas II and his entire family.
But nowadays it's considered by Forbes to be one of the 30 best cities for business!
How does rich Russia look like?
How does Norman Foster copper skyscraper look?
And how this city is connected to Boris Yeltzin?

Let's discover in this episode.

Средний Урал, а Урал опорная сила России ) Екатеринбург мой родной и любимый город

After looking the video I understand a bit more why moscowians to not like Yekatrinburg. It truly looks like a decent city with a bright future and nice people. Hopefully Russia will change and they stop accumulating all the wealth to Moscow and the other regions will be able to prosper.

I studied Russian history when I was in high school. I am familiar with the Romonov dynasty and tsars like Peter the Great, Catherine the Great, right up to the unfortunate circumstances of the last tsar, Tsar Nicholas II and his family and how their lives intertwined with Rusputin. Yakatrinburg was where the Nicholas II and his family were killed .

Looks like a place to visit for sure. Good job on the video guys.

[Игрылегоитомуподобные]

Хорошое видео про мой родной город но Екатеринбург это город не в сибири а на урале

[ProfitHunterRu]

Yekaterinburg is the Urals, not Siberia.

[Damir]

Here was murdered the Tzar Family in the mill house of Nikolay Nikolayevitsh Ipatyev ( he later died in Prague in 1938 ) . Brezhnev has the house demolished by Yeltsin not to yield any clues .

[adolfhitler]

In my heart I have a desire to go to Russia, only if

[Amgupt]

Terrible city and terrible country. Stop the war against Ukraine.

Екатеринбург это не Сибирь! Екатеринбург столица Урала!

[alexanderhilltop]

Все враньё! Екатеринбург всегда был промышленным городом, с момента его основания в 1723 году. Вся Европа построена из уральского камня и уральского железа.

Статуя Свободы в Нью Йорке имеет металлоконструкций из уральского металла. Эйфелева Башня тоже сделана из уральского металла. Санкт Петербург, Варшава, Рига, Киев и прочие европейские города сделаны из уральского камня.

[Юстас-тп]

Куча тупых американских штампов о прошлом города. Америкоска даже не знает что Урал не Сибирь.
