traveled to Krasnoyarsk on train No. 8 with a young couple bags full of IKEA (imagine that did more than 1,000 miles by train just to buy shelves). Then fell asleep and did not talk much with us, and that the guy was defending himself well in English. The trip took 12 hours (2,569 rubles / 63 euros). Upon arrival at Krasnoyarsk buy tickets for the next stage to Irkutsk (3,950 rubles / 97 euros).

An intermittent rain and cold that we were fucking in the Krasnoyarsk station, where they are 4 hours more than in Moscow. We had to take the anoraks for the first time before taking a trolley that took us downtown to find accommodation. We stayed in the Yenisey Ogni , which comes in the Lonely Planet, where a double with bath and breakfast cost us 2,500 rubles (61 euros). It's an old Soviet hotel with rooms unreformed only have cold water . To get a hot shower you have to climb to the fourth floor and ask the key to a woman. The registration of the visa costs 200 rubles (5 euros). Krasnoyarsk
also has many concrete blocks and touches the one million Soviet people, but it seems a city so dehumanized as Novosibirsk. Prospekt Mira streets as are very pleasant to stroll, with flower boxes, public address and music stores.
Among the concrete buildings are also preserved wooden houses some Siberian typically, although most urgent need of restoration. The banks of the Yenisei , one of the great Siberian rivers, is another good place to stroll. It is moored a steamboat that carried Lenin's exile. The
Town Hall Square is the center of Krasnoyarsk and is headed by the Soviet Opera House. From the square you can descend to the river by a staircase with fountains. At the bottom there are bars with terraces.
Another point of interest is the City Park in front of which stands a large statue of Lenin. Not far is a bust of the founder of the KGB, Felix Dzerzhinsky , one of the few that remain in Russia. There is also an interesting Soviet mural in the plaza of the station.
we wanted to visit in Krasnoyarsk Stolby Nature Reserve, located a few kilometers from the city, but the rain stopped us. The second evening we went to the station to catch the train to Irkutsk.
