City Guide of Russian Federation is dedicated to the Jewish Diaspora, developed in Russia in the middle of the XIX century and the beginning of the twentieth century became the most significant in Russia. 

The number of Jews living in the country is constantly changing. National government policies, wars, change of borders, Stalin's repressions, the tragedy of the Holocaust were reflected in Jewish life. But with all the cataclysms of the twentieth century in many Russian cities have survived the signs of their original national life. Metropolitan and provincial museums of the country keep the monuments of Jewish life and art treasures, created at different times by representatives of culture of the Jewish people: writers, artists, architects. Preserved memories of people who left a decent memory of life in the city or country. Archival documents, publications of past years have witnessed a distinctive Jewish life in the centers and remote areas of Russia. In many places, still standing on the streets of the old synagogue, wooden houses with signs Mezuzah. Directories many years to tell us the address of charitable societies, national clubs, kosher kitchens, matsopekaren. Cemeteries are tombstones with Hebrew names and traditional ornaments. We offer our readers to carefully study the city and see the almost imperceptible at first sight and not mentioned in guidebooks "Jewish street" of times past and feel the life of the national community of the late XX century. In every region of the country the birth and blossoming of the Jewish communities were in different times and had their own local circumstances, and at the same time, their lives are deeply entered into the historical fate of Russia, it is associated with a long history of the Jewish people.
