THE COUNTRY OF ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS HAS FOUND THE SECOND BREATH.
THE COUNTRY OF ANCIENT CIVILIZATIONS HAS FOUND THE SECOND BREATH.
Istanbul has met us gloomy. It was cloudy, plaid pranks the cool
Wind. As if apologising for uncharacteristic for this season
Weather, Turks behaved with us exclusively benevolently. Or
So it seemed after even morning heard in Cheboksary
To the airport: "here it is a lot of you, and I one"?
The mullions-strong city located on two continents,
Incorporated histories of set of the most ancient civilisations,
Speak, it was transformed beyond recognition for any
Last ten-fifteen years. Really, near to
Ruins of the fortress constructed still in XIII century, still
Operating mosque of XVI century adjoin shining glass, concrete
And plastic high-rise houses of modern business and inhabited quarters.
Running forward, say, that Turkey all represents today
Building site. At the Russian hammered by problems involuntarily
There is a question: whence there are on it means at even recently
The poor country? After all traditionally developed agriculture,
The known large industrial enterprises and could not
To deduce it in number of front lines. However, the answer is evident. In
Istanbul thousand and thousand small enterprises in bulk are located.
The whole microdistricts of tanners, obuvshchikov, jewellers,
Manufacturers of the sanitary equipment. And everywhere - besides
Small shops, shops, shops which our way it is possible
To name simply booths or pavilions. It is known, such small
The enterprises and shops also fill up basically city treasury.
Even in Moscow, according to mayor JU. Luzhkov, they give 60 percent
The budget of capital of the country. I believe it. After all, for example, on a place
The giant of the socialist industry - factory promtraktorov in
Cheboksary it would be possible to have not less than thousand small enterprises.
In them, of course, would work time in five less than people, but the income they
Would bring in as much times more...
Necessarily thoughts come back to Cheboksary. It is recollected, how
Our enterprise "the Newspaper the Soviet Chuvashiya" put in a city
Booths on trade in a printed matter. Till 6-7 months
It was required only on permission reception. It is so much official
Barriers it was necessary to overcome, that the enemy you will not wish.
Really to owners of thousand and thousand enterprises and booths of Istanbul
Too it was necessary to endure all it? Whence at them was forces,
Nerves and patience?
- What nerves? - The owner of jeweller shop Ahmet is surprised
Sandal-wood tree. - there would be money. Today I will conceive - tomorrow I will open.
- And the permission sanepidstantsii, firemen, the electricians different
Departments goradministratsii, the architect, defenders of the rights
Consumers, assistants to the mayor? Is at us, you understand, such
Bodies which are baked day and night about our well-being.
- E-hey, yes that you such speak? What permission, what
Bodies? There are standards. I will make everything, that my shop it
Corresponded. Otherwise at check I without ceremony will burn through.
Not to understand to Ahmet me. Therefore as at reasonable people all is simple.
Meanwhile and it was not necessary to our enterprise really
To use the shops opened with such work. The mayor
Our dear Anatoly Igumnov has suddenly decided, that booths it is better
To collect in one heap under the pretext of pavilions, yes to establish them
Far away from crowded places. Instead of how in Turkey any there:
ponastavili, whether see, in places where it is always populous. Stir
. Any selected firm should construct these pavilions
For couple of months, by day of republic. But building was tightened
Almost for a year. There were so, that businessmen in hope of benefit
Have spent in this business of ten millions roubles, in summary
Have suffered losses for even big sums. I do not know, who has won from
Such custom-made building, but the budget of a city from it it is exact not
Has grown stout. Also what? It appears, for this time our mayor was in time
To visit capital of one European country and, inspired
Seen, has decided to change shape of a city again. In its opinion, all
It should be identical and monotonous. Certainly, desire of the mayor to dress
Streets in a such glass uniform to understand it is possible. After all it
The person the military man. But how to be with interests of a city? How to be with
The state employees receiving the salary with the big delays? Though,
Certainly, the beauty demands victims. Whether but the beauty is uniformity?
- I something do not understand you, - Ahmet speaks. - as it is possible,
That all was identical? My shop should differ from
Others. And who can force to clean me my shop? It costs
On my earth.
Yes, at reasonable people... At us a plot of land under the same
The shop can be rented basically only for a year. About what
Development it is possible to dream, if you do not know, will prolong to you rent through
Year or will ask to be cleaned.
However, apparently, I have distracted. It is known: whom that is ill...
And so, other appreciable article of the income in Turkey became tourism
And rest. To tell, that in it in the country were not engaged earlier - was
It is incorrect. But the true boom in the rest industry has come in
Last decade. Whether to it has pushed an example of Greeks with
The next Cyprus, to which for the known reasons Turks
Are not indifferent, whether the life has brought them to they be to tell not
I undertake. But the South side of the country bordered with mountains and washed
Warm Mediterranean sea, today it is entirely built up and continues
To be built up with resort hotels.
Group of journalists and the managers which trip has organised
Cheboksary travel agency "Intur-lux", was in time
Will familiarise with job almost two tens hotels, basically
Five - four-star. Not to give to set of the checking
Bodies of an occasion to attempt to convict the author in an embedded advertising, I not
I will begin to result their names. I will notice only, that in all are created
Perfect conditions for rest. The excellent kitchen, covered and opened
Pools, tennis courts, exercise rooms, various rooms
The rest, convenient numbers for residing where change linen in the worst
Case in a day. To me, as to the fan poparitsja, especially
Baths have liked. As a rule, in them there is a sauna, a Turkish bath,
The pool, at will - massage, in some is available still the damp
Steam room. However, seldom where they are divided on man's and female
Branches. But from four baths where it was necessary to visit, only in
It is forbidden to one to appear in bathing suits. In that hotel basically
Germans had a rest.
By the way, and in three-stars hotels service rather decent.
They are under construction in a big way, capitally, with hope to receive with
Time the fourth, then and the fifth star. For this purpose it is necessary
Only to complete some missing objects, starting with
Which presence it is defined klassnost. Means, Turkish
Businessmen believe, that tourist boom in their country not the temporary.
But belief belief, and they use reasonable efforts
Once visited here has wanted to have a rest at them more and more. In what
It is expressed? If it is short, that whoever you were,
Here you will feel the mister. That is the person, which
All respect... The case, proisshedshy in one of ours Was recollected
Sanatoria. During a dinner, by tradition consisting of three dishes and
Compote, the pensioner did not have not enough "put" two pieces of bread, and
She has asked still a slice. That here has begun! "It is eternal to you not
Suffices "," would bring from the house "," At us here all is calculated ", -
Shamed the old woman and the waitress, and the manager of a hall. In the Turkish
Resorts such it is simply impossible to present. Dishes from
Several tens you choose itself, you take so much, how much it is necessary
(Buffet). Thus about you will constantly be
Waiters, and you have not time to notice, when disappears from a table
The used ware. Amazes also diligence of serving hotels.
I remember, suddenly begun rain, as workers has not come to an end yet
Have started to wipe... Sidewalks. And their exclusive politeness and
Complaisance us, Russians, simply amazes.
To what it I? And to that frequently for creation of the comfortable
Conditions are not so obligatory money. Are necessary only love to
To work, understanding of on what job you were employed and
Its diligent execution. After all in effect we pay for rest
Almost equally that in Turkey, that in Chuvashiya. It is necessary
To pay extra superfluous only for road. But what difference in service!
Certainly, the summer period at us not so long. Nevertheless at
Desire both our rest houses and sanatoria could be in time decently
To earn. Often I hear, that they live in misery, that there is no money.
I believe. But after a trip to Turkey on much I look in another way.
By the way, about seasonal prevalence of our rest houses. I have got to talking with
The representative of the company "TREK TRAVEL" Zejnulloj, accompanying
Us.
- I on your place would organise winter rest, - he has told. -
I think, in the warm countries would be the people wishing though much
Time in a life to see the present snow, to drive on skis. Go
People to the Alpes. But there snow only in mountains. And at you all present,
Besides not so it is cold, as on the Far North. I, for example,
Was on Altai. You know, Russian bath, you run out from a steam room and at once in
Snow! For you it, can, and is habitual, but I tested the true
Pleasure and delight.
"The Alpes are, of course, - was thought to me. - but you would see,
Zejnulla as chided the old woman for an additional piece of bread ".
And still. And suddenly yes we will get down to business, for mind.
Four days our business trip lasted. But to all comes
The end. Last dance under singing liked in Turkey is executed
Tarkana. Last is drunk with new hospitable friends charka
rakija. Comfortable "Boeing" delivers us from Antalia again in
Istanbul. Here it is quickly passable customs. Any declarations.
Anybody here does not interest, how much dollars, how much gold,
Things of everyones we have brought to Turkey and we take away therefrom. But here we have sat down
In native close, ragged "TUshku". In four hours it
Delivers us to native Cheboksary. There too it is necessary to pass
Customs. It will be necessary to report for each spent dollar, for
Each bought cowards. And if that's all right, we again appear in
Native city, we will start to live the habitual life...
Nikolays MAXIMS.
Cheboksary - Istanbul - Antalia - Cheboksary.
