Izhevsk, Capital city in Udmurt Republic, Russia
Izhevsk extends along the Izh River in western Russia, containing five administrative districts and numerous industrial facilities at 140 meters above sea level.
The establishment of the settlement began in 1760 when Count Pyotr Shuvalov initiated construction of an iron production facility near the Izh River.
The population represents a mix of Russian, Udmurt, and Tatar communities, each maintaining their languages, traditions, and celebrations throughout the districts.
The public transportation system includes numerous bus routes, trams, and trolleybuses connecting residential areas with industrial zones and educational institutions.
The Kalashnikov Museum displays the evolution of Russian firearms, including prototypes and modifications of the AK-47 rifle developed in this manufacturing center.
