Russia is known for its huge size. It is the largest country in the whole world. Its territory extends from the Baltic Sea in the west to the Pacific Ocean in the east and from the freezing Arctic Ocean in the north to the hot regions in the south. It often takes a lot of time to get from one place to another in Russia even if you travel by plane. On this large territory there are many different climate zones.

These zones explain why Russia has such a rich plant and animal world.

The plant world of Russia is really wonderful. We have a lot of beautiful thick forests with tall trees, low bushes and colourful flowers. In the forests there grow tasty berries and useful mushrooms. It is very pleasant to walk in our forests. But it can also be very dangerous because our forests are home to many wild animals. For example, you can meet big powerful bears, strong grey wolves, sly red foxes, fast deer and reindeer, large elks, small and fast squirrels, hedgehogs and so on. And if you visit the Far East, you can even see tigers there.

In Russia there are a lot of big cities. The biggest city is Moscow which is the capital of Russia. It is the business centre of the country. The second biggest city is Saint Petersburg. People call it the cultural capital of Russia. Millions of tourists come to these cities every year to see their squares, parks, museums, theatres, rivers, canals, bridges and other things. There are many other cities and towns in Russia, and each of them is interesting in its own way.

People in Russia are very kind, warm and friendly. They live like good neighbours with each other. They are also very clever and talented and make wonderful specialists: poets, writers, scientists, cosmonauts, teachers, policemen, doctors and so on. Russian people are proud of their country's history and culture. They are also proud of their grandparents and great-grandparents who fought in the Great Patriotic War and won it.
