HILLS («SOPKI»)
MUMIY TROLL
TIGERS
The city was built on the hills (in Russian called «Sopki»), most of the soviet districts - along the relief. That creates special veiws, especially during the night.
Vladivostok pop-rock band «Mumiy Troll» appeared in 1990-s, becoming cultic in Russia and abroad. After their famous song «Vladivostok-2000» this name has become narrative for the city.
If «on a Siberian street one could meet a bear», in Vladivostok it is supposed to meet a tiger :) Never-the-less Far East is really a home of Ussuri tigers, and the tiger is depicted on the emblem of the city
