New Year tree of the Zabaykalsky region: a lot of sunshine and a panel of sights
This land is the richest, unique region, a huge storehouse of minerals, vast expanses and magnificent diverse nature.
The decorators of the fir trees tried to convey this beauty. Stylized ornaments shaped like the sun remind that Transbaikalia is one of the five sunniest places in Russia.
The region has not preserved bright traditional folk arts and crafts. But Zabaykalsky region craftsmen have made flat wooden items depicting the most amazing sights of the region. In the Zabaykalsky region there are the most ancient churches and holy places, the great Buddhist place of power Alkhanai.
Large cedar cones collected in the Transbaikal taiga remind of the natural riches. Traditional national ornaments of nomadic peoples also stand out on the fir trees.
