It is enough to take a step to break the thin line between the honey-charming East and the restrained-elegant Europe, and you can do it in Orsk, the original and picturesque city of the Orenburg region, which is sheltered at the foot of the Ural Mountains.
Smashed into two non-belligerent, and complementary camps, Orsk is a merger of a New City in European style and an Old City inspired by the culture of Asia. The Ural River serves as a natural separator between these parts, while the left bank occupied the Old Town, the right bank - New.
