Vasily Ivanovich Surikov Square

Vasily Ivanovich Surikov Square is located in the Central district of Krasnoyarsk, opposite it is the government building of the Krasnoyarsk Territory. The Church of All Saints, where the famous artist was baptized, once stood on the site of the square. In 1948, on the centenary of Vasily Ivanovich's birth, a stone was laid here for a future monument, and the monument itself was opened on June 22, 1954. The authors of the monument are architect Valerian Kirkhoglani and sculptor Leonid Eydlin. Vasily Ivanovich Surikov Square is a cozy place in the very center of the city, where you can relax on benches under a shaded canopy and read a book. There is a playground for the youngest children. And if you want to please yourself and your loved ones with Siberian delicacies, then you can find several restaurants and a pastry shop near the park.

The Historical Quarter

The historical quarter in Krasnoyarsk is a public space in the city center, created on the basis of restored wooden houses of the XIX – early XX century (Gorky Street area). The project began to be discussed in the early 2010s, and active implementation started in 2017. As part of the reconstruction, the historic buildings were dismantled and restored with the preservation of a significant part of the original materials. The main feature of the quarter is the combination of authentic architecture and modern function: today it is a pedestrian zone with cafes, hotels and cultural venues. The project is being implemented with the participation of private investors and the city and is considered an example of careful renovation of the historical environment.

Pokrovsky Park is located on Karaulnaya Gora and is one of the most important places in the history of Krasnoyarsk. Once the Cossacks guarded Krasny Ostrog from raids from this mountain.

Since 2011, the embankment has been named after an outstanding Krasnoyarsk athlete. Ivan Yarygin.
