Millennium Bridge The presentation was prepared by: Teslenko Svetlana Group 5331
The Millennium Bridge is a modern landmark of the city, especially it is beautiful at night sightseeing tours in Kazan, as it has spectacular backlight. This is the highest bridge in Kazan, it crosses the Kazanka River.
The residents of Kazan jokingly called the Millennium Bridge the Linoleum, since before the final commissioning in 2007, movement on it was carried out only under one half of the letter "M".
The main decoration of the bridge is the giant letter "M" of yellow color. It is visible from each of the coasts of Kazanka and even far beyond them. The size of the letter is especially noticeable when you drive across the bridge. Cultural value
Sunlight, reflected from the water, very beautifully highlights this colossal structure, and at night the letter is highlighted artificially, decorating the panorama of the city center. And for the residents of Kazan, the bridge serves as a reminder that their city has crossed a thousand-year boundary.
According to the idea, the yellow letter "M", which can be seen from afar, is the first letter of the Tatar word "меңъеллык ", which is translated into the Russian "millennium". The meaning of the letter "M"
But since in Russia, and even more beyond its borders, not everyone knows the Tatar. The bridge is called the "Millennium", which also means a millennium, but already in English from the language known to the majority.
The choice of the name of the bridge is not accidental. The bridge was built for the great holiday in the republic - the millennium of its capital Kazan. The age of the city was determined not by the first mention in the annals, but by the age of objects and structures found in the territory of the Kazan Kremlin.
Thank you for attention!
