You are now reminded this place exists and that no less than 750k people live there.
This is despite in scandinavia, when you go north cities get smaller and more spread out, and you're approaching the end of the world. But this is place is relatively close, heavily populated. And no one ever mentions it, all scandinavians know about it, is rumours of alcoholism and poverty in decaying soviet era blocks.
For sure they're hiding something there. If it was just depression there, so many people wouldn't live there.
It can be pretty important after the Arctic way will be fully open. Also during WWII Murmansk was never captured and was pretty useful to communicate with Allies (helped to protect the north and even Leningrad too).

don't. Just forget about this place and never google about it. Unless you wanna taste novichek.
I'd call the grey part an unspoiled paradise but I know it's littered with polluting industry. That said, are there any parts that foreigners are not permitted to visit? I really wanna go there one day.

A lawyer relative of mine traveled to Murmansk in the mid 2000s, some kind of business between our two countries, think it was fishing related.
She described the airport, the trip into the city as ugly and poor. Endless blocks and massive polution.
Nukes don't exist. You don't have to worry about that. Nukes is just something what happens when you give a movie camera to Jews.

most of siberia is uninhabited, it's pretty pristine. Ugly industrial cities are not that big. Russia has about 40 closed cities en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed_city
Norilsk for example was one, but you can visit now, I think. Should be a very special experience
> peacefully let foreigners settle your land > norks pretty much ally with hitler during ww2 > good mister Beria says "hey guys you can't live near our critical port if your government's for hitler" in 1940, "please move to Finnish border" > Finns invade and Norks starve same as the Russians in the region > Somehow Russian fault Johansonatan, please

This is closed city severomorsk in Murmansk Oblast. I'm sure nothing suspicious goes on in such a happy looking place.

> heavily populated nah there is Murmansk but that's it. It's very remote otherwise. And the population is declining rapidly because people want to escape that shithole, and the remaining population dies of alcoholism and drug overdose. Nice nature though
>what are you doing here then? I post here once a week yet you seem to be dwelling here.

> Russia should've just not done anything ever at all wouldn't that have just made us another Poland though what's the point of that

Russia might not be my no.1 place to travel, but i hope to some time in my life. Considering Kola and far east siberia. Are russians friendly to poles IRL? They're mostly nice to us on Jow Forums
haven't you heard, Russia is almost as bad as Poland!

If you were here such a rare guest you wouldn't know who I am.
The point would be that this thread would have never been created.

>They're mostly nice to us on Jow Forums you've got to be kidding but IRL they're nice, you're welcome to visit, national parks in the far east are pretty nice but wouldn't tickets be expensive
Alexander Jenkins
On Jow Forums? Yeah, at least in my experience, often when someone posts antipolish stuff you guys defend us.
Daniel Roberts
Russia as is... nothing more

>The point would be that this thread would have never been created. Kola was literally uninhabited 100 years ago.
