Salavat Yulayev Garden, Ufa, Regional cultural heritage site in central Ufa, Russia
Salavat Yulayev Garden is a hillside park in central Ufa that overlooks the Belaya River through landscaped areas and walking paths. Multiple entry points and paved walkways let visitors move easily around the grounds, which feature both open green spaces and planted areas.
The garden gained heritage status after a monumental bronze statue was installed in 1967, honoring the Bashkir national hero. This monument became central to the site and transformed it into a significant memorial.
The garden serves as a meeting place where the Bashkir community gathers for celebrations and observes local customs. It holds deep meaning for residents as a symbol of regional pride and heritage.
Visitors can access the garden from several entry points and find well-maintained paved pathways throughout. Nearby restaurants and cafes offer convenient spots to rest and eat while exploring.
The monumental bronze statue in the garden is held upright by only three contact points with the ground, despite its enormous weight and size. This remarkable engineering solution makes the sculpture a striking sight that visitors notice immediately.
