On the longest day in the northern hemisphere, let

June 21, summer solstice. The longest day of the day was like a switch, which opened the turbulent heat wave. The hot weather always makes people miss the cold winter. Today, we go to the coldest city in the world to avoid summer heat.

Yakuzk, who is separated from Moscow, is a place that looks isolated from the world.

The ticket price to and from Moscow started at 500 pounds, where the average salary was 250 pounds per month. This is a huge amount. Of course, you can also choose to take a few months along the Lenhe River, but it is known for its extreme weather and is the coldest city in the world. In the past 9 months, it is winter, and the average temperature reaches minus 35 ° C. If you want to take a boat, you can only travel in three months without ice.

Students are skating at the Juruzk at minus 45 degrees. Here, skating is a very common thing. Any child will be bored at home all day. They regard the cold as ordinary.

How cold is it? According to locals, face pain and finger soreness are felt only 10 minutes outdoors every day, and few people stay outdoors for more than 20 minutes. In the cold winter, all life is paused. The dense fog will cover the sun for a few weeks or months, and the city is shrouded in snow and thick fog.

Photographer Alexey Vasilyev used the lens to record the coldest city.

Because of the existence of the permanent frozen soil layer, Yakuzk's buildings are built on the bracket, which is to prevent the calories of the house from melting the permanent frozen soil layer.

The main way of transportation of most locals is bus. In fact, the buses in winter are not fully driven according to the timetable, so people must wait for 15-20 minutes to wait for the bus.

Yakuzk's winter is cold and dark. In the works of Alekse Wasiriyev, people see the dark blue velvet -like sky, the faint orange light street lights, and the quiet unmanned street , Playground, architecture, and ubiquitous snow and fogs, which are shrouded in this land heavy.

It is difficult to describe whether the winter of Yakutsk is lonely or warm, or it can be said to coexist. When life is frozen in winter, people are more willing to spend time with their families at home. In winter, they are the same as family.

Like all the 890s, Alexei Vasayev and friends like to hear and sing, wear loose pants and hoodie, and want to travel around the world and take beautiful photos. Initially, he took any seemingly interesting photos and posted it on Instagram.

"I stroll along the street, as if I was drunk, I was walking and concentrating on observing pedestrians. I just want to start a new day."

One of the photos posted on Instagram in Instagram in 2014.

If the temperature is between minus 40 and 45, it is a good day to take pictures. The city is shrouded in dense fog and the street is empty, which is exactly the atmosphere he wants to pursue.

Once the weather warms, such as -35 ° C, people will go to the square with their families, where they can skate and take pictures next to the ice sculpture.

"At first, I was just shooting everything. There was no idea. Yakut had some unbearable boring and ugly in my opinion, but in these boring and unpretentious lives, I found its charm." Alexei Vasiliev tried to look at the city with the perspective of outsiders of the bureau. He began to take the daily life of the Yakutzk people. "Since I discovered photography, I no longer want to escape here. Boring. Yakut is a completely different world with a different living environment. "

Many hawkers will stand for more than eight hours at the edge of the outdoor stalls. Although they need to go to the house from time to time, this is still difficult to imagine for those who have not lived in the polar. Even if the cold is as Yakutsk, human beings have shown their amazing adaptability.

For the Yakuzk people, winter is like working weeks, summer like weekends, and summer is not completely beautiful. For Yakutsk, which has almost no air conditioning, the temperature above 30 degrees in summer is more difficult to bear than each household with the best heating in winter.

Yakuzk Ballet Academy's young ballet actor, Yakuzk is the cultural capital of the Arctic.

Women in Yakut's national costumes are preparing for the blessing ceremony of the Erhh Festival during the National Summer Day. Yakut New Year is the main national festival of Yakut.

The Yakuts always believe in the vitality of nature. Without the connection with nature, no one can live in such a harsh weather. This is the creed that every locals know.

In Alekse Wasiriev's lens, the characters are a bit gloomy, lonely, and tired. The place where a person lives leaves a mark on a person's mentality. The Yakutsk people in the camera are closed and do not like to smile, but their lives reveal their calmness in the photos. This is a common life here. "When I shoot the characters, they asked me why I patted them instead of a beautiful girl. But the life here is beautiful itself."
