Things to do in Kazan, Volga District: The Best Sights & Landmarks
On the banks of the Volga River, Kazan sits austerely, its cityscape a visual confection of architecture that somehow manages to be both playful and severe. No matter your spiritual inclination, you simply must visit the Temple of All Religions, a Technicolor cultural center built by artist Ildar Khanov. Though still a work in progress, the "temple" is a feast for the eyes—and the spirit.

Kazan Kremlin, an amazing historical place, on the banks of the Volga River. the walls and towers of the Kremlin are very well preserved. The Kremlin itself in architecture is very similar to the Pskov Kremlin. Also white towers and walls, also round towers. I liked the building very much. It was in winter, a cold wind was blowing from the river, it was -23 Celsius, snow was falling, so we moved from museum to museum. On the territory of the Kremlin, there is a museum of the history of this break off and the emergence of the Kazan Khanate in the beginning, and so on. I recommend to visit those who are fond of history, like me).

The Yardam Mosque was opened in 2013. It is located in a large park with trees and playgrounds for children. Now there is a whole complex, which includes a mosque with a prayer hall, a hostel for nonresidents, a canteen, computer classes, a library and a mini-printing house. The premises comply with the standards for disabled people - equipped with ramps, multilevel handrails, special furniture, Braille inscriptions. The prayer hall is not very large, but elegant. A huge beautiful chandelier hangs from the ceiling. The rugs are located at a social distance from each other, there is a hand sanitizer. At night, the building of the mosque is beautifully illuminated, as well as the surrounding trees.
