I want to share some photos of my native town with you, my friends. I think that knowing the place where a person lives will add much more to the understanding of a person and the culture of the country he comes from. I invite you to share your photos too with some comments about the places in the photoes.

My native town is Kolomna in Moscow region. (110 km South East from Moscow) A big industrial centre with more that 150 thousands of inhabitants. It has a rich history that dates back to 1177. It is also a historical town with many links to the history of Russia. There is an ancient Kremlin and many churches in the town. It's a tourist centre too.

In January 2008 the European skating championship will be held in my town.

The first photo is one of the churches:

And this is a photo from the air in spring. It's only a part of the city. The city is 17 km long and 6 km wide.

And in this photo you can see the Kremlin wall and the Skating centre where the European championship will be held in 2008.

Hi ! ,

My hometown is Al Ain, which is the capital of Abu Dhabi’s mainland Eastern Region in United Arab Emirates. It is a green city nestling in the shade of a mountain called Hafeet.

This street looks scary from this sight!  Zip it! [:#] The mountain district is surrounded by groundwater resources.

 

There are many forts and archaeological sites.

 

This is the center of the city.

 

I hope you enjoyed the trip !

// Regards //
