On May 24, the Day of Slavic Literature and Culture is celebrated annually in all Slavic countries. The origins of this holiday are inextricably linked with the honoring of the Holy Equal-to-the-Apostles Cyril and Methodius - the enlighteners of the Slavs, the creators of the Slavic alphabet.

There are more than a million Buddhists in Russia and, in the Republic of Tuva, about 60% of the population practices this ancient religion.
Before the early 20th century, this territory was part of Mongolia, but then, it voluntarily joined Russia and then, the USSR. During the Soviet era, Tuvan Buddhists were persecuted, but, in the 1990s, the community was revived.
In 2023, the first Buddhist monastery since Soviet times was built in Tuva and it became the largest in Russia. Such a sacred relic as some of Buddha's ashes are kept there.

Russia's westernmost city - Baltiysk
It is located in Kaliningrad Region (54ยฐ39โฒ N, 19ยฐ55โฒ E) on the Baltic Spit, about 30 km west of Kaliningrad itself. The city has a total population of about 30,000 people.
Baltiysk (Pillau before 1946) became a city in the 18th century and the first settlements there were registered as early as the 13th century. Which is why you will find ancient fortifications of various historical eras.
The most famous is the star-shaped citadel of Pillau, which was founded by the Swedish king in 1626. A few years later, Sweden handed over this fortress to Prussia. It was also visited by Peter the Great: there, the future emperor of Russia studied military science.
The westernmost lighthouse of Russia, built in 1816, can also be found there. It is still in operation.
Baltiysk is home to the naval base of the Russian Baltic Fleet and, in summer, on Navy Day, many tourists visit the city to see the naval parade.
