Exconstituing Soroki (city)

The French caught Moscow although empty, but with all the forms of organically well-lived city, with his various commerce, crafts, luxury, government, religion. These forms were lifeless, but they still existed. There were rows, shops, shops, labases, bazaars - most with goods; were factories, craft institutions; There were palaces, rich houses filled with luxury objects; There were hospitals, ostenta posted places, churches, cathedrals. The more French remained, the more these forms of urban life were destroyed, and at the end everything merged into one inhapless, lifeless field of robbery.
The French robbery, the more he continued, the more destroyed the wealth of Moscow and the strength of robbers. Robberies of the Russians, from which the Russian capital began, the longer he continued, the more participants in him, the faster he restored the wealth of Moscow and the right life of the city.
In addition to the robbers, the people are the most diverse, inhibitable - who is curiosity, who is a duty of service, who is the calculation, is homeowners, clergy, higher and lower officials, merchants, artisans, men - from different sides, like blood to heart, - poured to Moscow.
A week later, men who came with empty bass, in order to take things from things, were stopped by the bosses and are forced to export dead bodies from the city. Other men, glancing about the failure of comrades, came to the city with bread, oats, hay, knocking up the price of each other to the price below for the same. The artels of the carpenters, hoping on the expensive earnings, every day included in Moscow, and new on all sides, they were drunk, they reinforced at home. The merchants in the Balagans opened trade. Harchevni, the stall courtyards were arranged in burnt houses. The clergy resumed the service in many not polling churches. The donors brought looted church things. Officials adjusted their tables with cloth and cabinets with papers in small rooms. The highest superiors and the police managed the distribution of the well-remaining good after the French. The owners of those houses, in which there were many things left for things, complained about the injustice of their all things to the grain fest; Others insisted that the French from different homes were brought to one place in one place, and because he was unjustly to give the owner at home those things that he was found. Branled the police; bribed it; They wrote ahead of the estimates on the chasing statements; Required assistance. Count Mozpotchin wrote his proclamation.

At the end of January, Pierre arrived in Moscow and settled in the surviving flaghel. He went to the count to the count, to some familiar who returned to Moscow, and was going to go to St. Petersburg on the third day. All tried victory; All boiled life in the ruined and coming capital. Pierra were all glad; Everyone wanted to see him, and everyone asked him about what he saw. Pierre felt particularly friendly located to all people he met; But unwittingly now he kept himself with all people's relatives, so as not to tie himself with something. He for all the questions he was done - important or the most insignificant, - answered the same indefinitely; They asked him: where will he live? Will it be built? When is he going to St. Petersburg and will the drawers take rebel? - He answered: yes, maybe I think, etc.
He heard about the growth that they are in Kostroma, and the thought of Natasha rarely came to him. If she came, then only as a pleasant memory of the last past. He felt not only free from everyday conditions, but also from this feeling that he, as he seemed to be deliberately in favor.
On the third day of his arrival in Moscow, he learned from Drubetsk, which Princess Marya in Moscow. Death, suffering, the last days of Prince Andrei often occupied Pierre and now with a new liveliness came to his head. Having learned at the lunch that Princess Marya in Moscow and lives in his not burnt house on an exaggeration, he drove to her at that same evening.
Dear to Princess Marya Pierre without ceasing thought about Prince Andrei, about his friendship with him, about various meetings with him and especially about the last in Borodin.
"Did he died in that evil mood in which he was then? Isn't it revealed to his explanation of life before death? " - thought Pierre. He remembered the Karataev, about his death and involuntarily began to compare these two people, so different and at the same time as much like love he had to both, and because both lived and both died.
In the very serious arrangement of the spirit, Pierre drove up to the house of the old prince. This house survived. There were traces of destruction in it, but the nature of the house was the same. The old waiter who met the old waiter with a strict face, as if wishing to give to feel the guest, that the lack of prince does not violate the order of the house, said that Princess was known to go into their rooms and accepted on Sundays.
- Ministers; Maybe they will take, - said Pierre.
- I listen to, - the waiter answered, - please in portrait.
A few minutes later, the waiter and the desala came to Pierre. The desala on behalf of the Princess handed over to Pierre that she was very glad to see him and asks if he excuses her for the unceremoniousness, enter the top in her room.
In a low room, lit by one candle, was sitting princess and someone else with her, in a black dress. Pierre remembered that with the prince there were always companions. Who are and what they are, these companions, Pierre did not know and did not remember. "This is one of the companion," he thought, looking at the lady in a black dress.
Princess quickly got to meet him and stretched out his hand.
"Yes," she said, peering into his changed face, after he kissed her hand, "this is how we meet you." They are lately He often spoke about you, "she said, translating his eyes from Pierre on a companion with shyness, which for a moment he struck Pierre.
- I was already glad to find out about your salvation. It was the only joyful news that we received from a long time. - Again, more restlessly, the princess looked back at the companion and wanted to say something; But Pierre interrupted it.
"You can imagine that I knew nothing about him," he said. - I thought it was killed. All I learned, I learned from others, through third hands. I only know that he got to Rostov ... What a fate!
Pierre spoke quickly, lively. He looked at the face of the companion, saw a carefully curious look as directed to him, and, as it often happens during a conversation, he for some reason felt that this companion in a black dress was a cute, kind, glorious being that would not hurt him Sound conversation with prince Marya.
But when he said the last words about the growth, confusion in the person of Princess Marya put it even stronger. She again saddled his eyes from Pierre's face on the face of the lady in a black dress and said:
- You will not know?
Pierre glanced once again on pale, subtle, with black eyes and a strange mouth, the face of the companion. Something native, long forgotten and more than cute looked at him from these attentive eyes.
"But no, it can not be," he thought. - Is it a strict, thin and pale, aged face? It can not be she. This is only a memory of that. " But at that time, Princess Maria said: "Natasha". And the face, with attentive eyes, with difficulty, with effort, as the rusty door will be rewicted, - smiled, and from this dissolved door suddenly smelled and planted Pierre, for a long time forgotten happiness, about which, in particular now, he did not think. It smelled, covered and swallowed it all. When she smiled, no longer a doubt: it was Natasha, and he loved her.
In the first minute, Pierre involuntarily and her, and the princess Marya, and, most importantly, he said to himself by the unknown secret. He blushed joyfully and suffered painfully. He wanted to hide his excitement. But the more he wanted to hide him, the clearer - clearer than the most definite words, - he, and her, and the princess Marya said that he loves her.
"No, it's so, from surprise," Pierre thought. But just he wanted to continue the started conversation with Prince Marya, he looked at Natasha again, and the strongest paint covered his face, and even the strongest excitement of joy and fear embraced his soul. He confused in words and stopped in the middle of speech.
Pierre did not notice Natasha, because he did not expect to see her here, but he did not recognize it because he had happened in her since he did not see her, the change was huge. She lost weight and pale. But this did not make it unrecognizable: it could not be found in the first minute, as he entered, because on this face, in whose eyes, a casual smile of the joy of life was always shone, now, when he entered and looked at her for the first time, there was a shadow of smile; There were some eyes, attentive, kind and sad question.
An embarrassment of Pierre did not affect Natasha embarrassment, but only pleasure, a little markedly freshen all her face.

"She arrived to visit me," said Princess Marya. - Graph and Countess will be the other day. Countess in a terrible position. But Natasha had to see the doctor herself. She was forcibly sent with me.
- Yes, is there a family without your grief? - said Pierre, turning to Natasha. - You know that it was on the very day, as we were freed. I saw him. What was the adorable boy.
Natasha looked at him, and in response to his words, only her eyes opened more and lit up.
- What can I say or think about the consolation? - said Pierre. - Nothing. Why was it to die such a glorious, full life boy?
"Yes, in our time it would be difficult to live without faith ..." said Princess Marya.
- Yes Yes. This is the true truth, - Pierre's provenly interrupted.
- From what? - asked Natasha, looking carefully into the eyes of Pierra.
- How about? - said Princess Marya. - One thought about what awaits there ...
Natasha, without hearing the Princess Mary, again looked at Pierre.
"And therefore," Pierre continued, "that only the person who believes that there is God who manages us can transfer such a loss as her and ... Your," said Pierre.
Natasha has already revealed the mouth, wanting to say something, but suddenly stopped. Pierre hurried to turn away from her and turned back to Princess Mary with a question about recent days Life of your friend. An embarrassment of Pierre now almost disappeared; But at the same time he felt that all his former freedom had disappeared. He felt that he had a judge, a court, which is more expensive to him by the court of all people in the world. He spoke now and together with his own words, he thought that the impression was made by his words on Natasha. He did not speak on purpose that she could like her; But, whatever he spoke, he judged herself from her point of view.
Princess Marya is reluctant, as it always happens, began to tell the position in which she found Prince Andrew. But Pierre's questions, his lively restless look, his trembling from excitement, the face gradually forced her to go into the details she was afraid to renew himself in imagination.

There is a small town with Moldova in Moldova interesting title Soroki.. It is located on the shore of the Dniester right on border with Ukraine. Through the river in the area of \u200b\u200bthe city, by the way, there are several border ferry ferry, but we will see them a little later. There are in the forties and the only country preserved medieval fortressbut today I want to tell about gypsy phenomenon related to this place. Located here on the high shore, a huge quarter inhabited by Ryganami causes delight from a large number of tourists who come here only to take a look at the Gypsies the leading arrangement of life. In the understanding of the absolute majority of people, Gypsies - poorly dressed, piercing people on the streets with requests to keep the handle, smoke, etc.; Living in bedboards or at the stations. When I wanted to show photos of gypsy houses in Belarus to one person, he asked in surprise: "And the Gypsy is at home?" Taki yes! Yes, and what else! Such mansions can be seen only in the area of \u200b\u200belite cottage villages near large megacities, well, in the provincial Moldavian town, they produce an indelible impression.

In the forties, the most civilized gypsies of the world live - so they themselves talk about themselves. So, look at them to visit, and at the same time we learn a lot of interesting things about this amazing people who do not have their own native land. By the way, another one interesting fact Tied in the city - the local Gypsy baron(He is the Baron of All Moldova) Arthur Cheraar It claims the title of Gypsy King (elected by ethnicity from various states).

The main part of the population of forty - Moldovans live in the lowland part of the city on the shore of the Dniester, and the Gypsy city, named in the People, is located on the hill "Ringing Mountain": Here in the fall and in the spring, wedding monista and tambourines are ringing, and the blacksmiths in local tin-brass artels threaten.

I fell into the necessary minibus and went to the high part of the city. On the way, the driver managed to tell a lot of interesting things about Gypsy life and about the quarter himself. He brought me to the most high point Cities, from where I started my walk. Background in the photo - Ukrainian side.

Going down the street, you begin to understand the principle that the router told: "The lower, the more expensive." This applies to the land on which all new and new gypsy mansions are being built. It is said that the price of a land plot for construction can reach unthinkable prices - 50 thousand dollars per square meter! I honestly believe in it weakly, but I hand over the reader what personally heard from people.

The mansions are built three and four-story, and not in the "Novorussky" (such as you will find units), but in a special Asian style with large balconies, bizarre turrets, pyramidal superstructures ...

Not impressive? And imagine that in the 80s years, in the USSR, some mansions were already standing! While high party officials were content with one-story government dachas, and people were read about rich bankers and businessmen in newspapers in the heading "abroad", this miracle city was already here. In those years, Soviet tourists were a hundred times more interesting than today.

In the homes of the Sorokh wealthy Gypsies - Eternal Construction: the construction launches are abandoned, the window openings are empty in the upper floors, thirdly - the house is incomprehensible, the warehouses of stone and bricks stretch along the walls. Such pictures can be clogged for years. But tax inspectors are well aware of the local tricks: according to the law with a mistake house, taxes are not held. Or held, but in smaller amounts.

Gypsies are characterized by everyday weaknesses - they tell the local. Their "Achilles Fifas" is an eternal desire to surpass a neighbor. Because of the forties and there is an eternal construction rivalry. Only they compete in a special, purely in Gypsy: when you build a house - although I die, but for a couple of bricks higher than that of a neighbor. Here, for example, Alexandra Prei, Native Uncle Baron, has its own "chip" for envious neighbors - a dear fountain with antique statues, in which in the summer they live .. Frogs and crocodiles!

He told one paparazzi that he designed the fountain himself, after he visited earnings and saw this miracle in the "city of Fontanov" Petrodvorets. I saw this beauty - and literally sick, because it was constructed something similar in myself. "To the crocodiles he himself thought: for chic," the relative of Baron admitted, so that the neighbors did not sleep.


In a quarter, there are a lot of small streets that end up deadlock - you will find something new in each. A visit to the Gypsy city can be allocated for at least three hours. There is a simplified copy of the Moscow Bolshoi Theater, as well as a house in the form of twenty (fifty) dollar bills among other attractions. I personally did not see him, so I still can not imagine how it should look like in kind

Walking on the "city" is completely safe, the Sorokovsky Roma as can be seen - people are rich and will not pester to you and poke alms. They are very friendly and quietly allowing interested in photographed their home, themselves and their family, they even open the wickets themselves and invite to enter themselves in search of the best angles :)

They are easy to come to contact, they can be photographed ... Please note that in such luxury homes Live the most ordinary people

Meanwhile, I descend below and at home, respectively, are more expensive. What funds are they built for? Many tied up with a drug business - it or not - I will not discuss. It is indisputable to the so-called fortune-old fishery and more involvement - begging. Such sinters still apply: steal someone else's baby and run into a beggar business. Gypsy Axioma: The more flexible look, the greater the size of the laying, so the beggars are dressed in selected ribbon and are often mutilated.

During the existence of the USSR, when relations with other countries were interrupted, Soroki became the Gypsy capital of the entire Union. The most influential gypsies settled here. With the collapse of the Great Country of Communications did not interrupted and no matter how it seemed paradoxical, today the ruble is a predicted beggar. Let's say in Vladivostok will go to the construction of a new mansion here in the forty!

Many Gypsies leave for earnings in cities and villages and return just a few times a year. Washing mainly come here for Christmas and Easter. Did not know? But our gypsies are Orthodox! That day I had to make sure of their pivot several times, however, see how it does not fit with drugs, fortunening, etc.

One old gypsy seeing me, asked: "And what will be the benefit to you from the fact that you go here and take pictures of us? Do you pay for it?" My seemingly convincing answers about traveling, impressions, etc., he shook his head and pulled a ten-minute lecture for approximately the following content:
- You probably think so to earn a place there, in heaven? In vain. Only the name of the Lord of our God and speaking of him, we can get a small piece of place for your own soul there in paradise. Listen to me - old Gypsy. etc.
It was very surprising to hear such, although I already knew about it from guidebooks. By the way, on that day, I was once twice asked about the "personal benefit" what I am doing. Gypsies could not understand why I do something just like that.

Father of the current baron, deceased Mircha Cheraar, was in forty, a particularly respected person, demanding, fair, for many years ruled by ethnics. He opened in the city the first jewelry cooperative - this kind of enterprise was the only one in all union. Mircea was distinguished by a business grip and man was fundamental. Helped the gypsies to learn to establish and promote entrepreneurship. Crashed for what was in shortage - such a thing and established. For example, in the 90s in the forties, the gypsies set up the production of underwear with which one is very connected interesting curious storydescribed according to one Sorokinsky traffic cop:

"Then" weeks "and knitted men's melting in the shortage were. The hosts of the cooperative on his branded shorts not only an eagle from Montana perpetuated, but also signed:" Cherar ". Once in the winter she flew in the traffic police a quick foreign car to register, time, time, time, time, time Say, little, come on, friend, help! And in the office there are two huge bags with shorts and melts. I distributed them to everyone who he met on that day. And his wife brought - Rada was, Radehonka. And in the summer we gathered with colleagues on kebab With fishing on the shore of the Dniester - we get to sunbathe, as we looked, and everything, like a football team, in cowards from Cherash! "

Another monumental building is located in the immediate vicinity of the "Gypsy Piglet" - a local intersection, where many Gypsies are going in the evenings.

Talking about the Gypsy luxury, it is worth mentioning about the fact that this luxury immediately ends with a circle of impassive dirt and puddles.

I went to the courtyard of one of the houses. On the street there was the whole family, but I was glad to photo. But at home I "walked" pretty ...

Still would! I have never seen such wonderful roofs! It's not our metal tile


Let's look at the roof more ...

I just have no word to describe it!

Kuras by the way, too, look colorfully on such farms :)

In the area of \u200b\u200bthe above "Piglet" there are two major mansion. Here is one of them.


they say that they are building a baron for her son and daughter.

Below is the Moldavian part of forty, but I do not hurry to descend, but I go to the lane from where a whole carcass of elite tinted foreign cars left for a minute ago. Baron went immediately thought I was not mistaken.

When I was at this miniature beautiful house, I called a Caganka from the courtyard opposite ...

I turned and immediately realized that I was standing near the house of Baron. Until now, Klyano himself for the fact that this house did not photograph and his yard! For these 15-20 minutes, I seemed to be under the action of Gypsy hypnosis and took the fotik only on the team of Gypsies - Baron's wife. Well, there is a reason to go there again - for pictures.
House of Baron Arthur Cherav, as it should be, the most prominent in the district. As a picture, it is perfectly visible from all sides: a 3-storey, from an expensive red brick, with a green slate roof and a mini turkey, a church bulb. Through massive forged gates is visible to the road paving slab house territory. In the courtyard today is crowded together - remove the territory (but not Gypsy).
I go to the courtyard and notice Two old limousine At the very bottom of the ingrown to the ground - for Roma, the passion for cars has now replaced horses.

Gypsy led me to the porch of a luxury home and after the standard questions from where I and who I, she spread his hands:
- Take pictures! Here is my daughter and grandchildren!

Actually these are all the photos that I was taken from the baron house. But this is not the end of the story. Gypsy put me at the table and served lunch:
"We have only lean," she warned.
That day God sent me "lazy cabbage", green tea, ram. I asked a question of the daughter of Barona: "What do you do in life? I'm working." She thought a little and shoved in the direction of the cleaner of the territory:
- Preparing for Easter.
I no longer asked questions.

Then the time came to pay me on your loved one. Then, I certainly solved all the crash connected to me welcome receptionbut it was later. And before that, I broke up with the 50th les (about 5 dollars) and listened about "love and about the family, about my soul."
The whole chip lies in the very question of personal gain, which Gypsies ask everyone. So, unlike people like us, the Gypsies do nothing just like that. So for the hospitality rendered to me, I needed to pay, but I will not open it to open an invoice as in the restaurant. Therefore, I am a gilded gypsy handle, thereby paying for lunch, and she still charges me positive in the form of good results of fortune telling: a lot of money, children, good work, etc.


Finally I go out from the territory of the baron house. Arthur himself did not see, but his photos are in inet.

Gypsy kids willingly go to contact. They have already learned a lot in English and are always ready to arrange an improvised tour of the town. Can offer you :)

They also suggested a good angle from which a wonderful view of the city offers.

On the bottom of the day passes state Border of Moldova - Ukraine

Near the Sorokin fortress there is an interstate ferry crossing, which works only in the bright time of the day. The ferry is sent once a hour, but be attentive - only citizens of Moldova and Ukraine can cross the border in the status of the border guard.

On the other side of the Dniester, the Ukrainian Cheekinovka is visible

Little high-rise buildings of the Moldovan town. Their condition is not the best, and in the courtyards there and soared. These photos will be in a separate post.

Candle of thanksgiving - New city symbol installed on a slope of high rock. From there, a wonderful view of the city and the surroundings - photo from observation deck Will be later.

Well, I keep the descent down

Moldovan Acacia faced me in the morning in Beltsi


Finally, I descended to the Sorokinsky fortress and I had a quick examination headed on all pairs on the bus station located in the area of \u200b\u200bthe very "candle". Before the departure of the last bus to Chisinau, it was necessary to have time to climb it.

Asked for Thanksgiving candle, I made together with three peers - Gypsies, one of which by name Graphwas very friendly to me. He saw something native - Gypsy in my wraps And he told about his juvenile wandering in Kazakhstan, Russia and Belarus (Yeah! Apparently, I also traveled apart).

That's how "Romale" live on this land given by the great Moldovan ruler Stephen Great Back in the 14th century and do not part with the dream of creating their own ethnic autonomy. This is now the Sorokh Baron Arthur now. And he has every chance to become the Gypsy king, but what will happen to this? Wait and see!

When writing this post used text from hereas well as from a wonderful guidebook "Ukraine and Moldova" authorship Andrei Sapununa.

Near forty, on the shore of the Dniester, residues of 9 settlements belonging to the Neolithic Boggo-Dniester culture of the 6-5th thousand to N were investigated. e. 5 chronological phases were revealed: from gathering to the manufacture of vessels resembling Rannepripol. The burial is discovered - the frustrated backbone without things. A number of finds indicate connections with the Neolithic cultures of the Balkan Peninsula.

In the XII or XIII century, there was a Genoese settlement of Olhilation in the place of the current city. In the XV century, Moldavian Voivode Stephen's great, in order to protect his possessions from Poland and Hungary, erected on the site of the former Olhony fortress, called Saraki (from Mold. Sarac - poor, ill-fated, orphan, as the locals were forced for a long time to hide from the persecution of the Turks in the surrounding caves). In the XVIII century, the name was replaced by Soroki. In 1692, the Poles captured the fortress and defended themselves from the Mustafa-Pasha's precipitant. In 1711, Peter I, during the Pruth campaign, crossed his main forces to the right bank of the Dniester and made Soroki the main shareholder point of stocks for his army. In 1738, Soroki were taken and ruined by Russian troops. In the Bucharest Peace Treaty of 1812, the city went to Russia. In 1833, with the establishment of the Sorokh district, the city of Soroki, who was then the owned place, was acquired by the treasury and made county. In 1860, the population of forty amounted to 5,250 inhabitants, according to the census of 1897 - 15,800 (8,089 men and 7,711 women). About 2/3 of the population was the Jews, 1/5 - Moldovans.

In 1975, the population of forty was 29.5 thousand inhabitants. In the time of the MSI, plants (technological equipment, metal products, building materials, oil-producing, canning, winemaking, brewery, etc.) were operating, a sewing factory, state farm mechanization and electrification of agriculture, pedagogical, cultural and educational schools.

In 1991, the population was 42.7 thousand inhabitants. Worked enterprises of mechanical engineering and metalworking, light, food industry. At the time of the census in 2008, the number of inhabitants was 28, 4 thousand people.

Coat of arms

The coat of arms adopted in 1930, represents a red dissection shield. In the first part, a silver gear fortress with a central tower, with closed gates and black windows.
