Volga river near Samara

[Primus]

Last week made 5.000 km and had a chance to cross Volga dam in Zhiguli (small town near Samara). Volga is not so large as in Saratov where it's 3 km wide, but the nature is very nice. Think there are a lot of nice places everywhere, but decided to post the links just in hope it will be interesting to you.

By the way, Zhiguli gave the name to Russian cars made by AutoVAZ. For export they are sold under the name LADA just to avoid an accord with Gigolo.

We had Lada, Niva, Volga and Moskovich vehicles in Cuba. We also had Ural and Jupiter motorcycles of which 99.9% of them had side-cars.
