Inturning 30 years
number of Japanese living in Vladivostok, almost reduced to a minimum. Closed shops, banks and enterprises. 1937 year - the last page of the Japanese diaspora in Vladivostok. By this time in Vladivostok had only Japanese consulate, which was conducted for the staff of constant surveillance.

the history and expressed a desire to expand such relations.

Such publications are changing views about the city. In the history of Russian-Japanese relations have different pages, is truly tragic. But we live close by. Today you can not be a closed city.
But openness can be different. It should be studied historically. And such a booklet - an attempt to go in that direction.
My students are interested in Russia, Vladivostok is interesting. Moreover, that someone is looking for traces of their loved ones.

and ordinary Japanese people, who came to Vladivostok with purpose of tourism.

,
lamented the shortage of booklets.

- We had a small party after the 1st edition, but quickly sold out. And interest in
showed him not only the Japanese and other foreigners and even locals. For them this information about the history and cultural past of the city was a real eye-opener. Hopefully there will be more booklets, - said Ms. Borisova. Also She noted that it would be an interesting series of events where you can learn more and different cultural events that took place at that time.

continuation of the story of the booklet and its significance became tour of historical places of Vladivostok.
. the excursion gone about 70 Russians and Japanese, living, studying and working in Vladivostok.

Alas, the tour itself was a little crumpled. And no wine organizers or tourists, and our urban reality. Already many times at different levels stated that Vladivostok no place to tour facilities. And once again it has been confirmed.
At many historic sites
tour participants had to look out the bus window, unable to approach the object. Despite numerous signs "No parking" All
places near sidewalks were made by private cars, the bus driver was not the slightest chance to park in the right place.
therefore had to look out the window or, or go further, and then go back, but this time on foot, which is not very comfortable.
Another detail - the inability to come to the monuments and some facilities due to muddy ground on lawns.

- The idea that this "front" all have been found and described - very deceptive. Yet there are places that can and should say. Thus, in the early 90's they were still alive, the Japanese, whose childhood was in Vladivostok. They came to our town after the "discovery" of Vladivostok, shared memories
Something is reflected in the preparation of the card, and something else to do. Every day brings new discoveries. many places the Unknown - summarized Zoe Morgun.
