Today ended our test run in the Karelian town of Sortavala on truck FIAT Fullback.
New sortaval'skiy youth center "Serdobol" on the Bay of Lappajarvi
In Sortavala over 90 buildings of historical value, ie. a prominent and even well-known architects in the late XIX early XX century
That's only in decent condition in the main those which are banks...
"The number 23" worn for centuries in contrast to its modern counterpart
An example of a modern foreign architecture, the Lutheran Church, built in the 2000s the Finns
The city centre is the monument to the top of the head Petri Shemeikka square väinämöinen (opened in 1928 year in honor of the centenary of the visit of the city by the compiler of the national epic Kalevala)
Samples of old fishing boats on the Bay of Lappajarvi
Next memorial sign sunk in the Bay (exact location is still not determined) during the Soviet-Finnish war;the submarine (in the background renovated in 2014, the Finnish Bay bridge, built in 1932) and Parking SVP the local branch of the MES
Another local bottleneck of Sortaval, called by locals "the ferry", but in fact representing a floating bridge across a narrow but deep Strait between the mainland and the island of Riekkalansaari (truck traffic on it is prohibited, but... if impossible, but very necessary, it can be)
Wit the residents of the nearby village of Peninsula will not deny
We went over 2000 miles on the route M-10 and A-121. The pickup proved to myself beyond praise. As succinctly said my partner Igor Gorpin: "This is the car for our roads." The average consumption for the whole route was around 8 l/100 km, with an average passport consumption at 7.1 l/100 km.
However, this result is primarily due to a relatively low temperature, and that the tire pressure was maintained slightly below the norm to improve ride comfort.
Ruskeala waterfalls on the river tokhmayoki
Marble canyon "Ruskeala"
The plan of the tourist complex of marble canyon "Ruskeala" (by the way, we thank the local administration has kindly provided us with the opportunity of shooting on the observation deck of the canyon)
guests can taste at the cafe on Ruskeala local snacks
On the way back we were able to appreciate the difference between reconstructed and are in the process of rebuilding sections of the route A212 "Sortavala",
and we also stopped in Priozersk and examined the ancient local fortress "korella" (founded 879)
Near the fortress near the road А121 two monuments to the heroes-tankers:
Heavy tank is-3, dates from the middle of 1945 (which doesn't quite match the theme of the great Patriotic war)
But the self-propelled gun ISU-152 "Deerslayer" in 1943 actually carried on their shoulders the burden of the struggle against the fascist "Tigers" and "Panthers" and take Berlin
Fire station in a renovated historical building on the outskirts of Priozersk
In addition, we stopped at the St. Petersburg international auto show, held in the "eco forum" in Pulkovo,
which is dedicated to a separate story, and explain in more detail about the behavior and characteristics of tested pickup FIAT Fullback. Follow the news on the portal www.rim3.ru
