Little Video Tour of Voronezh in Russia - Yazata - Sep 6, 2026
Voronezh is an oblast (province) capital about 600 km (370 mi) south of Moscow. Its population of about one million (14th largest city in Russia) is more than 90% ethnic Russian. It's about 2/3'ds Christian (overwhelmingly Russian Orthodox) while the next two largest religious groups are 22% "spiritual but not religious" (recognized by the Russian census and a very popular religious identity in Russia) and 6% flat-out atheist.

From the looks of the video this is a very nice place, not at all how Americans typically picture life in Russia.
