Modernist Samara

Samara- pearl of modernism in Russia as a whole (as the museum of modernism suggests) and modernist architecture as well. Some streets do feel like you are in Budapest, what I very much appreciated at the moment. Such has an easy explanation- in 19 century, Samara was the third industrial city in the whole Russia- flour, salt, butter "kings" shipbuilders- you name it, that is how you have works of architects trained in Germany, Switzerland etc. at times even together with Germans themselves- Samara is also home of so called Volga Germans.
