Before the trip to Tarnogsky Gorodok, my colleagues assured me that this place would be boring and there was nothing to see there at all. But I know that it will be interesting!
The village of Tarnogsky Gorodok is located in the North-East of the Vologda region of Russia and it is a regional center.
From Vologda the distance along an asphalt road is 356 km, and from the Vologda-Nyuksenitsa highway - 33 km.
The name of the village comes from the Tarnoga River. In Russia, so many settlement named by this way.
An old Gaz-AA (copied from Ford AA) stands under a canopy next to the museum.
Almost all of Tarnoga (as the settlement is colloquially called) is wooden, like most of the regional centers of the Vologda region.
Such a June...
There are many wooden apartment barracks in the central streets.
The houses are a bit atypical in their architecture due to the high roofs. All in all - a classic eight-flat box. The house is not yet quite old and is not considered dilapidated: it was built in 1976.
There is always a colorful atmosphere in the courtyards of such houses.
A lot of chaotically hanging wires only enhance the graphic quality of the picture!
Also, the chaos of the snow-covered roofs of sheds and baths creates an interesting geometric pattern.
There are also multi-apartment wooden barracks more familiar to the look. They have balconies that are located on the other side of the house.
In Tarnoga there are elevation differences and two rivers - this is an automatic plus to the coziness of any place.
The day before the trip, there was a heavy snowfall, and then everything began to melt abruptly.
Garages are like country houses. An interesting solution is to build a recreation room above the garage.
As in any other city or village in Russia, the snow begins to melt in the spring, and with this, snow porridge and puddles form.
Judging by the traces from the tractor, the pavement was cleaned from the snow that had fallen in the morning, but during the day the snow melted and formed an impenetrable puddle.
The road is straight here, if that.
