Uryupinsk is officially recognized as the capital of the Russian province. Muscovites and Petrograders do not have to worry about their status, because this city does not pretend to be more. The hero of anecdotes and the center of kerchiefs from goat's down is content with small ones. Moreover, because of its popularity in Russia, this city is not inferior to two large capitals.
Uryupinsk is worth visiting for three reasons: handkerchiefs, a big fair and fishing in Khopr.

Cuisine and restaurants
Uryupinsk though the capital, but catering here is not a status. I can not feel the scope. It would be nice for a tourist to sink a lot of money, but there is not enough pleasure for such a sum. Here you can have a snack in a cafe or tavern (probably, it sounds more noble). Kitchen - with live beer, shish kebab, pizza and desserts. On average, lunch in a cafe costs 250-300 rubles.
In summer, cafes open terraces and drag out karaoke to the street. In the days of football matches, you can watch the whole city on TV behind the battles on the green field.
Shops
. Twice a week in Uryupinsk there is a market where you can buy the main city souvenir - goat lamb's handkerchief. Actually, without it, it's better not to leave the provincial capital. It's like going to Scotland and not taking the kilt with you.
All shawls of excellent quality, local producers work on conscience. If the scarf seems suspiciously fluffy, then you need to hold it over your palm and check whether it will climb or not. Usually does not climb.
Uryupinsk hotels
With the placement in Uryupinsk tense for two reasons: few hotels, and those that are not the best service. The city has one municipal and several private hotels. You can say that they differ in price. In the city to stay cheaper - from 700 rubles. Private owners take in 1, 5 - 2 times more expensive.
But in summer the accommodation options are more. You can stay at the tourist base on the shore of Khopra. Or, what's even cheaper, rent a room or a house near the lake Podpesoknoe. For this pleasure will have to pay from 500 rubles. Plus, near the river and the forest.
- Visit Pokrovskaya fair - it takes place in September. This is a big event of regional scale in the field of agriculture. Craftsmen from nearby farms come to Uryupinsk. Sometimes, masters from Orenburg (with their shawls) and Gus-Khrustalny come in. The fair is held for more than 2 centuries and at one time gave impetus to the development of entrepreneurship in Uryupinsk.
- To worship the wonderworking icon - atheists can laugh, but believers have no doubt that this icon, located in the Intercession Church, has a miraculous power. The church is among ordinary houses and is no different from simple buildings. But inside - beauty and wealth! They say that only the main Kazan Cathedral in Volgograd can compare it with luxury.
- Drinking water from the Sacred Well is another religious landmark of Uryupinsk. This well appeared in the place where the image of the Mother of God appeared to the townspeople. They say that the water from it relieves the disease. Pilgrims from other regions are always coming here
Fun, sightseeing and sightseeing in Uryupinsk
Several important sights of Uryupinsk that will allow tourists to get to know this wonderful city
Fishing in Khopra
Hopper is the favorite river of the Uryupin people. In spring, it is poured so widely that it pours the lake Podpesoknoe, located in the neighborhood. In summer there is a real expanse for fishermen - you can catch big pike, carp, catfish, carp.
Forged gates
In Uryupinsk there are forged gates, exactly like the gates in St. Petersburg and Jerusalem. The first are at the Eternal Flame and look like a fence of the Summer Garden in St. Petersburg. The second - near the Church of the Nativity, they are a copy of the gates of the Church of All Nations in the Israeli city.
Goat Museum
Goat is the favorite of Uryupinsk. This museum opened in the city on the day of the championship on the scoring of a goat. Why was this animal chosen? Because the downy goat is the pride of the city, its symbol, you can say, is the face!
Visitors to the museum are met by Anfisa the goat and looks after the exhibits. There are also stands of children's handicrafts, stands with models in down clothes, stands with tools of down production.
In addition, the museum can see the room of everyday life of the village of Uryupino with Cossack and merchant furniture and mannequins dressed in traditional clothes. In memory of the museum you can buy souvenirs - small goats and pupae from shreds. Photo of Uryupinsk (10)
