Short story
How did the city come about? The first mention of it dates back to 1460. Then there was no city at all. There simply was a commercial river route, and merchants needed to get to this route. And they walked along the territory of the present city dragged. A fee was charged for the passage. Then it was called "wash." And the resulting settlement, respectively, became known as Mytishche. With emphasis on the first syllable. This means the place of collection of washes, as we found out.
In the 19th century, the village of Mytishchi was renamed Big Mytishchi. In the early 1800s, the first Mytishchi-Moscow water supply system was laid here, which is valid to this day.
In the middle of the same century, the first workers' enterprises were organized in the village. In 1861, a railway was laid through Mytishchi. The famous carriage building plant (named after Mamontov) began its work in 1896.
At the beginning of the 20th century, this village became a very popular place among summer residents.
In August 1925, the village of Bolshoye Mytishchi officially assigned city status. And his name from this day is Mytishchi.
In 1932, the city expanded. Perlovka, Taininka, Leonidovka, Rupasovo, Druzhba adjoin it.

sights
And here we start with the churches located in the city. In Mytishchi, the population is increasing, new temples are being opened. But the church, located in the village of Taininskoye, is a historical monument. Its roots go back to 1675. The temple in honor of the Annunciation is very beautiful. For those who were lucky enough to be in Mytishchi, this temple is the first recommendation to visit.
There is a separate conversation about the church in honor of the Vladimir Icon of the Mother of God. It is located at the entrance to the city, right on the Yaroslavl highway. Ancient, built in 1713, now it is restored. Golden domes shimmer in the sun, and the temple itself merges in color with a clear spring sky. Another place where you can and should make a pilgrimage to guests of the city.
The building of the Mytishchi station is another object of cultural heritage. It was built in 1896.
Part of the Mytishchi water supply, located in the Losiny Ostrov National Park, as well as the station building, is a cultural heritage site.
Monuments of the city
The population (Mytishchi) has changed from year to year. But more about this later, now we will slightly open another part of the city. These are the monuments in Mytishchi.
And the first place will be divided by the Great Patriotic War memorial and the Bayonet monument in honor of the victory.
Probably no city can do without Lenin’s grandfather. This leader has long been gone, the Soviet Union with its communist views has sunk into oblivion. But Ilyich continues to reach out to a brighter future, calling for descendants to this. The monument is located in the town square.
In the depths of the city, on Yubileynaya Street, there is a monument to the U-2 plane.
And not far from the Cathedral of the Annunciation is a monument to Tsar Nicholas II.
The famous monument of Mytishchi water supply consists of three pipes with multi-colored valves. This building is one of the five most ridiculous monuments of the Moscow region. In the spring, crows take refuge in the vents, they make nests there, and at the beginning of summer a funny croak comes from there.
There is a library for adults in the city named after Kedrin Dm. Next to her is a monument dedicated to him.
There is a memorial complex on the territory of the Internal Affairs Directorate. It was built in honor of the fallen police officers who gave their lives in the line of duty. Among the names you can find the following: Tolstikov Sergey Mikhailovich. Unremarkable and even a little funny, this is the name of the real hero of our time.
The twin city was presented with a "Cat without a tail." This sculpture took its place in the city.
There is such a joke about the city:
- "How to get to you?
- You will pass a monument to the water supply, then a samovar and leave at the monument to the plane.
- What kind of nonsense?
“It's Mytishchi, baby!”
The pot-bellied samovar is located in the new district of the city. There used to be a field, now white skyscrapers flaunt. And among them - an eight-meter samovar. Under his nose is a red and white polka-dot cup.
Green places of the city
In the center of Mytishchi there is a city park of culture and rest. It is divided into two parts. In the first - rides. Indeed, in Mytishchi the number of residents is growing rapidly, children need entertainment places. Here you can ride a Ferris wheel and other carousels. In the center of the park is an unusual fountain. In the evening, he plays with bright colors, and streams of water simultaneously splash from different places.
The second part is an area for quiet walks and cyclists. Hungry, you can buy tea and rolls in tents located in the park. For children there is a kiosk with cotton candy. And those who do not like to eat on the go, can sit in a cafe called "Rest".
Another vacation spot in the city is Strekalov Square. It is much smaller in area than the main park. There is a playground and benches.
Perlovka has its own city park. A wonderful place where it is very nice to walk in the spring. The smell of lilac is mixed with the smell of bird cherry and fresh grass. Dandelions grow in abundance. Great place for a photo shoot in nature.
On the banks of the Yauza River, you can fry kebabs and breathe in the river air. But it is located in an urban area, so you can’t admire beautiful green views.
Speaking of Yauza. Finally, they ennobled the road connecting the Yauza shore with the current Flower City residential complex, located in Taininka. In Mytishchi, the population is actively increasing; new houses are being built. So LCD "Flower City" was built about 5 years ago. This track is divided into two bands. One for pedestrians and one for cyclists. It runs along the river and, with luck, you can meet beavers living on the Yauza.
Veteranov Boulevard, located on Letnoy Street, is the historical part of the city. Here you can relax in silence, under the spreading trees, sitting on wooden benches with carved backs. A playground has been built for the youngest residents of Mytishchi. The older generation can enjoy the conversation on the benches. The fountain on the boulevard adds its own zest to this pleasant place.
