I dreamed about a trip to Kalmykia for a long time. And after exact three years ago our friends went , my desire to go there even more stump.

My husband promised that we would definitely go there. But, as you know, the promised three years are waiting. 🙂

In addition, there was another good reason - the brother of her husband, wanted to immediately go on a journey through the Kalmyk steppes with us, but it was all the time he lied somewhere, then in ...

On the eve of the year, the horse sent me an exotic gift, . And soon we ourselves talked prayer flags from Buddhist shrines ...

Well, some pure pragmatic considerations also influenced: the roads of Kalmykia are deserted, in winter there is better to drive around with two machines.

Whatever it was, another my dream was finally fulfilled and we held these New Year holidays in the European Votchin Buddhism.

For 5 days we drove all Kalmyki, from the border of the Rostov region almost to the most Volgograd region. Rolled one and a half thousand kilometers, learned what Kalmyk off-road,

visited in

Soyusn-Suma we barely found in the fog ...

Kalmytskaya wind power plant disappointed ...

we went to the monument of nature and the saint for all Kalmykov, Purdash Bagshi, which is worth lonely in a very picturesque place a few kilometers from the Har-Buluk village,

And, of course, not one time inspected the sights of Elista.

Pagoda seven days at night especially beautiful

But I will not hurry and tell about everything in order ...

What was impressed in Kalmykia?

First of all, people left deep impression. Kalmyks are very hospitable, smiling and friendly. Sometimes we did not even have time to ask questions how they themselves acquainted us with their culture, traditions, customs, very intelligibly explaining everything. I did not meet this before anywhere.

The second stage shook the deserted spaces of the Kalmyk steppe.

Here you can drive tens of kilometers, without having no soul.

Roads of Kalmykia in winter deserted ...

Even under the eloscope, settlements are quite far from each other. When we went from Elista towards Volgograd, the first working gas station was met 80 kilometers from the capital of the republic.

And, of course, an exotic atmosphere itself was struck.

You know perfectly well what you are in Russia, with extremely few people with Slavic appearance on the streets, and at the same time everyone speaks Russian (I heard only once, and that, frankly, I'm not sure of everything That it was a Kalmyk language, I'm not familiar with him, and who knows, maybe it was Korean, Mongolian or Japanese tourists), and around - Hurulas, Pagoda and Stupa ...

That's just for this it is worth come here.

Pros and Cons Winter Travel in Kalmykia

There is only one indisputable plus on a trip to the New Year holidays: tourists in winter in Kalmykia are extremely small. No one is pushed with elbows from local attractions.

But minuses, alas, we succeeded somewhat more.

On the way to City Chess

First, on New Year's holidays, all museums were closed in Elista, with the exception of the Buddhism Museum on the territory of the Golden Monastery of the Buddha Shakyamuni. We diligently, starting from January 3, called and visited the National Museum of Kalmykia.

Yes, we would be happy to come!

But nobody took the phone, and the doors were closed.

... But the National Museum of Kalmyki was closed all the time ...

As for the Museum of Chess in City Chess, we immediately said that he would open exactly on January 8.

The Chess Museum was closed, but at least the Chess Palace himself looked

Secondly, many cafes and hotels for New Year's holidays are also resting. With housing, we decided to simply: removed the apartments.

We lived in this house, near the monument to Kalmyk Chabanam "Host Steppe", on the very outskirts of Elista

And from our window, City Change is visible ... 🙂

But we only managed to taste the national food in the cafe "Kalmyk cuisine" on January 6 and 7, already at the end of our journey.

Thirdly, in winter there is very windy. And even with a small frost, 2 degrees in the steppe freeze so that there is no little at all.

Horse winds in Syakyusn-Suma ranked ice in the wind ...

I will tell about the Kalmyk kitchen separately, it deserves. As, however, and everything else.

But, Frankly, despite all the cons of winter journey, we were satisfied with the trip to this hospitable and exotic republic.

And we will definitely come here. When it will be warm…

Climate of the Astrakhan region

The climate of the Astrakhan region is sharply continental, dry, distinguished by the greatest continentality in the Russian plain. The Astrakhan region occupies practically the middle position between the Equator and the North Pole. Therefore, the climate is characterized by large annual and daily air temperature amplitudes, low precipitation, and high evaporation of moisture. Often, air masses from the Northern Ocean, sometimes from the Black and Mediterranean Seas, are often part of the region. With the influence of the Atlantic Ocean, the arrival of cyclones is connected, and, consequently, precipitation, a decrease in temperature in summer and an increase in winter. And with the arrival of the Siberian anticyclone increases pressure, cloudy and the number of drop-down precipitation decreases. That is why, in winter, in a short day and clear sky, low temperatures are installed, and in the summer, the same cyclone causes an increase in air temperature and leads to the establishment of hot days.

The main background of the region is replicated, sometimes with sandy arrays, which contributes to the unimpeded passage of the cold Arctic masses, with which the temperature drop is associated at any time of the year. The exception is perhaps the Volga-Akhtubinskaya floodplain and Delta of Volga, with a large amount of water surface, meadow vegetation and tape forests. The climate here has its own specific features: throughout the year, the air temperature at the night clock is higher than on the surrounding desert spaces, and in the summer it is cooled here by 2-4 ° C than outside of this area. Actual climatic seasons, in the area, do not coincide with the calendar.

Thaw in the middle of winter are rarely: in the delta, for January it falls up to 5 days with a thaw. If the southern winds, in winter, bring significant thaws, then with long-lasting northern and northeast winds ("High", as catchers call them), come true Siberian frosts, when the day air temperature can reach-30 - -36 ° C.

In February, strong winds are often accompanied by snowstorms. The average duration of blizzards 5 - 10 hours. With snowstorming, snow cover takes place, and detonated areas.

The maximum ice thickness reaches 1 m, but the established ice cover is often disturbed by rapid and significant fluctuations in the level of the Volga, caused by the unevenness of the discharge of the water of the dam of the Volgograd HPP. This feature is more pronounced in the upper reaches of the delta. In winter, the northern part of the Caspian may also freeze. The winds that continuously, for several days, from the Caspian side, also increase the water level on the sea coast and in the Volga delta.

Spring in the Astrakhan region is the shortest period of the year, it lasts, just a month and a half, from mid-March to the first numbers of May. The characteristic feature of the Astrakhan Spring is the rapid increase in air temperature. The transition of the average air temperature to positive values \u200b\u200boccurs in the second half of March, which is somewhat later than, for example, in Ukraine, in the same latitudes, but May in the Caspiani warmer than on the Black Sea coast of the Caucasus. In the middle of March there is an active destruction of snow cover, a complete thawing of soils, ice is revealed on the rivers.

In mid-April, the flood begins, at the same time, returned from the south of the bird. In the delta, on Ilmemen landscape the nest swans, herons, and many waterfowl.

Summer in the Astrakhan region is the longest season a year, it lasts 4.5 months. The Astrakhan summer begins in the first days of May, and ends in the second half of September, when the temperature decreases to + 15 ° C. Summer is characterized as very roast and dry. Clear weather is installed in May with high air temperatures, rare clouds and storm sediments. Western and northwestern winds are noticeably studied, 37 - 40% of precipitation falls out, from the total annual number. The precipitation is mainly storm, frequent thunderstorms are, a hail is possible, which causes strong damage to agricultural crops. Sometimes, the wind catches the clouds, the sky is permeated with lightning, the grommet rolls are heard, but it does not reach the earth's surface, evaporated, in the overall air layers. This phenomenon is called "dry rain". Air dryness, high temperature and a large number of sunny days are the cause of high evaporation exceeding the amount of precipitation at 6 - 10 times.

In the second half of June, water in the rivers warms up to a temperature of + 24 ° C, and in Ilmeni - to +25 - + 27 ° C. In shallow Ilmeni, not related, at this time, with the Volga, water can completely evaporate, the bottom is covered with a thin layer of salt, cracks, and salt marshes are formed. The hottest month is July, with an average day air temperature - +26 ° C. In the period from June to September, there are more than 50% of days, with the average daily air temperature above + 25 ° C, and at some days, the thermometer column rises to the mark + 35 ° C, in the hottest days the day air temperature reaches + 40 ° FROM.

In the first half of October, there is still warm dry sunny weather, with moderately high temperatures in the afternoon and, already, relatively low at night. In the second half of October, frost begin. Water in rivers and lakes warmer than the earth's surface, therefore, in the mornings warm air over the reservoirs is in contact with colder air, and fog is formed. Feed yellow leaves from trees, the sun hides behind the clouds, there are not strong drizzling rains every day, which, in promoting with a strong wind, turn into a rather nasty rainy weather. In early November, often the first snow falls. And from that moment on the rainfall, sometimes, sometimes, and snowfall are added.

One of the main factors affecting the climate of the Astrakhan region is the wind. The huge spaces of the steppe and marine environment give the winds to the winds, which are almost always, and at times, with very high speed. During the year, winds are dominated with a speed of 4 - 8 m / s, but in some cases the speed increases to 12-20 m / s, and more. Strong winds bring a lot of trouble to the pennate delta inhabitants.

For the region, the eastern, southeastern and northeastern winds are typical. In summer, they determine high temperatures, dryness and dustiness of air, in winter - cold and clear weather. From April to August, Sukhovi is connected with these winds. Winds of other areas bring cloudy, precipitation. The greatest number of days without wind is marked in summer.
