Tyumen, the administrative center of the Tyumen region, is of great importance as an industrial and cultural center of Russia. The city is located on the left tributary of Tobol - the river Typa.

By the way, Tyumen is the first city in Siberia founded by Russians in 1586 on the site of the first capital of the Siberian Khanate, the Tatar city of Chingi-Tur. Until 1944, the city was part of the Urals region.

At present, researchers can not say where the name of the city "Tyumen" originated. According to one version, the name of the capital of the region from the Tatar word "tumen", which means "ten thousandth army". According to another version, the word consists of two Turkic words - "tu" and "meana", which together translates as "my property". In modern Tatar, Tyumen means "lowland."
On the last Sunday of July, residents of Tyumen celebrate City Day. On this day several carnivals are held along the central streets of the city.

Entertainment, excursions and attractions of Tyumen

Holy Trinity Monastery on the shore of the Tours is one of the oldest Siberian temples, built in 1616. Stone buildings on the site of the shrine appeared only in the 18th century. At the end of the same century, with the funds of the parishioners, the Cross Exaltation (or St. Nicholas) church with five domes was erected. Now there is a spiritual school. The Spassky church has survived to this day, however, without the bell tower of the late 18th century. The temple itself was prayed by Emperor Alexander II himself.

A magnificent view of the historical part of the city opens from the cable-stayed "Bridge of Lovers", located next to the Annunciation Cathedral.

On the street of the Republic is the former building of the City Duma with elements of local architecture and Russian classicism. On the ground floor there is an exhibition of the Regional Museum of Local Lore. Next to it is the Gostiny Dvor building, decorated with arches and cornices. On Lenin Street there is another renovated museum mansion - Masharov's house.
