At first glance it is difficult to imagine that some hundred years ago Shuya was a prosperous industrial and commercial center. On the outstanding enterprise of the Shuyan, legends were composed ("The Shuya knave will harness anyone into the yoke"), and the special relationship of the city with the representatives of the royal dynasties (the last of the Rurik people himself was from Shuya) is a separate subject of pride of his inhabitants. With a careful acquaintance with the city, the significant pages of his history become evident.

The traditions of soap making, which brought the lion's share of revenues to the city's treasury, were completely lost, only the city's coat of arms-the golden bar of soap on a red background- serves as a reminder of its glorious "soapy" past . In memory of the lost fishery, the "Soap Festival" with a theatrical performance, contests and a master class on soap making is arranged in the city park in July

Entertainments, excursions and attractions Shuya

Symbol and the main attraction of the city - bell tower of the Resurrection Cathedral . The second highest in Russia from separate belfries (the first - the bell flax of the Peter and Paul Fortress of St. Petersburg), it was laid in the beginning of the XIX century by the Italian architect Maricelli . After the construction of the third tier the structure collapsed, the author of the project refused to bring it to the end, and it was done by the local masters . In 1891, on the birthday of Emperor Nicholas II, another one of the Shuya legends was raised to the bell tower - a huge bell weighing 1270 poods .

Resurrection Cathedral belongs to the Nikolo-Shartomsky monastery yard, which stands on the river Teza, 15 kilometers from Shuya, in the village of Vvedenie .

AT In 2007, on the square in front of the cathedral, a monument was opened to clergy and laity who suffered during the years of persecution.

Pavlov's House

The architecture of prerevolutionary Shui, despite the efforts made to exterminate it, is nevertheless traced in the guise of the city. On the east side of Lenin Square there are preserved shopping streets, and from the south - the building of the former city council, which now occupies the museum of local lore. In the neighboring Union Square - one of the most remarkable merchant buildings of Shui - Kiselevskaya hospital, as well as the Intercession Church, laid in the XVII century.

The squares are connected by a bridge, slung over the remains of the serf moat, where the pond was formed at the site.

House of merchant Nosov on the street. Soviet, the building of the former men's gymnasium, and now - the school number 2 them. Balmont (Sadovaya, 15) and the Pavlova Manor (opposite the Shuyskie Sitzi Factory), garden and park sculptures of the middle of the XIXth century, still pleasing to the eye in the city garden are some of the monuments on which it is possible to imagine the appearance of Shuya in the 19th century.
