Lenin's Monument can be found in virtually every old Soviet city, so you can see them everywhere in Russia. as he was the father of the modern Soviet government and ideological foundations.
Installed in 1930. On the pedestal are inscribed winged Leninist words he said on November 20, 1922: "Vladivostok is far away, but, after all, this is a city of ours."
The decision to raise funds for the monument to Lenin was made by the working people of the city, who gathered at the forecourt when they received news of his death in 1924. Before the monument was erected in the city by the workers of car repair shops on May 1, 1925, a plaster bust was installed on a pedestal of five wheelsets on the territory of the depot on the First River. Then a bronze monument was brought from Leningrad to Vladivostok.
Authors: architect —Y. A. Trautman, sculptor - V.V. Kozlov, who had previously created a figure for the monument in Leningrad near Smolny, erected in 1927, and the monument in Vladivostok is exactly the same. The sculpture is cast in bronze by the workers of the factory “Red Vyborzhets” in Leningrad.
In 1964, the Komsomol of the city laid a capsule with a message-appeal under the monument: “Hello, happy people living under communism! We live in a great time, the time of development of virgin lands and flights into space. We are fighting for the passing red banner, we are participating in socialist competition. We envy you living in our communist future. ”
In 1970, during the reconstruction of the square, the monument was moved a little higher on the hillside.
In 1991, several dozen people made an attempt to dump the monument, but the communist pensioners managed to defend it.
The right hand of Mr. Lenin shows an example of the best state in Asia. THIS IS STATE Japan !!!
For over seventies, Lenin himself might be a big guy, but for young and trendy tourists nowadays, he is just a statue. No detail explanations, no stories, and no memories, why should I go there ?
A solitary, rather isolated statue overlooking the bus and railway station. Although large it's not easy to see and can easily be missed as people hurry by.
