ABOUT KAZAN
Kazan is the capital of the Republic of Tatarstan and one of the most ancient cities in Russia. Kazan is located on the left Bank of the Volga at the point where the Kazanka river flows into it, about 715 kilometers to the East of Moscow. This river flows from North-East to West, crossing the center of the city and conditionally dividing it into two parts. It is rather easy to get from one part of Kazan to the other, as urban areas are connected by dams, a bridge and a metro line. The climate of Kazan is moderately continental, severe frosts and extreme heat are rare and not typical for the city.
The city's population reaches 1,243,500 people (as per 2018), thus making it the sixth most populous city in Russia. Kazan is one of the largest religious, economic, political, scientific, academic, cultural and sports centers in Russia. The Kazan Kremlin is a world heritage site. The Millennium anniversary of Kazan was celebrated in 2005. In April 2009 the Russian patent office granted Kazan the right to be called the" third capital» of Russia.
Kazan is one of the largest industrial, financial, commercial and tourist centers in Russia, a leading city in terms of investment in fixed assets and construction in the Volga region.
