1️⃣The first on my list is Monument of Salavat Yulaev , he was warrior of the Bashkirs. His huge statue is located at a popular park and specially situated on a hill where visitors entering the city on train or by taxi could easily see it.

Hello @Tushar_Suradkar  Thanks for commendation, as well as initiating the Google Map landmarks Icons challenge . It serve a good purpose . For me I see it as opportunity to feature landmarks that people don't know much about in Ufa.

I have added the link to your post.

Oh! How I love the White house! SUCH an idyllic building  with a Garden next to it seems like an ideal place to spend a Quiet afternoon. Is it always bustling and can one manage to get a quiet time? @Emmik20

Hello @Ewaade_3A  I myself the like the Ufimsky white house, as it is popular known . Contrary , One would have expected it to be busy all day long but it was not like that. it is a quite place . You only see students from the university of medicine nearby coming to take pictures. And that's all.

I myself was at first time surprised to see a governor office this quiet . later , I realised things are done mostly at the ministry offices .

Hello @Ewaade_3A  " Awon eyan your Excellency " are every where. They are there too in Ufa. They usually  meet the governor at resorts outside the city wall. I just arrived at project in a town called Awiel in South Sudan. The internet is too slow.

Oh, I see.

At least, you touch foot in Africa,  close your eyes for a moment and pretend to be home. I wish you a safe trip and safe return to Russia. 

Always know, there is no rush, anytime you reply is the right time @Emmik20

Hello @SholaIB  Thanks for the comment. I like to participate in monthly challenge too. In Russia, there lot of iconic landmarks to see in one area but in west Africa you really have to take a long walk to see them.
