Melody in F Major Op. 3 No.1by Anton Rubinstein
The ancient town of Tarusa is located on high ground at the confluence of the Tarusa and Oka Rivers, 70 km from Kaluga.
There is no railway, and therefore the town was less susceptible to the passage of time and industrialisation. Most of the buildings are one- and two-story houses located on their own plots of land.
The Russian Soviet writer, Konstantin G. Paustovsky wrote of the town:
I live in one small town on the Oka. It is so small that all its streets go either to the river with its smooth and solemn bends, or to the fields where the wind shakes bread, or in the woods, where spring is in full bloom between the birches and the cherry pines ...
First mention of the settlement was in 1246....and was under the influence of Lithuania by the early 15th century. However in 1508, after a long struggle, the Lithuanian prince Sigismund was forced to abandon his claims to Tarusa and other settlements around Kaluga.
By the beginning of the XIX century Tarusa had about 600 inhabitants, there were 70 houses, two churches and one small brick factory, where only 10 people worked!
Paustovsky continues .... Perhaps nowhere near Moscow was not such typically and touchingly Russian in its landscape. For many years, Tarusa has been a kind of reserve for lyrical strength, diversity and softness of the landscape. No wonder since the end of the XIX century Tarusa became a town of artists... .....Here every summer comes young people from Moscow's art institutes. Writers and scientists reached for the artists, and Tarusa became a kind of creative laboratory and a shelter for people of art and science......

Yalta, around 1900.
Yalta is a resort city on the north coast of the Black Sea on the Crimean peninsular and is located on the site of an ancient Greek colony....
During the 19th century, the town became a fashionable resort for Russian aristocracy and gentry. Leo Tolstoy spent his summers here. In 1898 Anton Chekhov bought a house (the white Dacha) here, where he lived until 1902.The town is also associated with the Imperial Family. In 1889 Emperor Alexander III constructed Massandra Palace to the north of Yalta and his son,m Emperor Nicholas II built the Livadia Palace south-west of the town in 1911.

Хвалынский национальный парк
Хвалынский национальный парк образован в 1994 г. для сохранения уникальных природных комплексов Хвалынских меловых гор Приволжской возвышенности и памятников историко-культурного наследия этого края.
Самая низкая точка всей русской равнины в Мезозое, стала самой высокой точкой этой равнины вовремя формирования гор Приволжской возвышенности 379м над уровнем моря - это высота горы Беленькой. Горы действительно белые, потому что состоят из чистейшего мела, который как никогда не тающий мех снег сверкает круглый год между зеленью сосен с оранжевыми ветвями, меловых, реликтовых. Реликтовые водяные крысы-выхухоли - ровесницы мамонтов, плавают по дну многочисленных чистых родниковых прудов, благоприятных для отдыха. Рядом красавица Волга.
