Lyubov Kondratyeva
Hello, Bharathwaaj! Cost of living in Russia for every particular person may be quite different, it depends on personal demand and income, of course. Average salary in Russia is about 630$ per person per month , but in every particular area it differs. For example, in Moscow it is about 1060$. We will talk about Murmansk region, here it is about 900$ per month, according to official statistics in 2020. Please welcome to the expo, we also looking forward to it; we will tell a lot about local specialties and answer your questions with pleasure !

Can you tell me differences with other destinations of Scandinavian north towns ?
Lyubov Kondratyeva
Hello, dear Federico, Murmansk is quite a large city comparing with some Scandinavian north towns; in fact, Murmansk is the largest city north of the Arctic circle in the world. It has wide touristic infrastructure, a lot of opportunities - cultural, for shopping, for activities, for entertainment. Another difference is that services here are in general cheaper than in Scandinavia.

Dear Jatinder, hello! Murmansk is a fascinating city with its unique Arctic nature. The town is located on the Kola Bay coast, not far from the Russian borders with Norway and Finland. It is the biggest city in the north to the Arctic Circle with population of 300 000. Murmansk has the largest port on the shores of the Arctic Ocean and the only port in the European part Russia to remain ice-free all year round. The main attractions of the region are: Murmansk city with its monuments, memorials and museums; the first nuclear-powered Icebreaker "Lenin" which now serves as a museum is particularly a highlight, in the region - Saami Village, where guests can learn about indigenous population; activity parks, where guests can take a ride on snowmobiles, take a ride on sleds pulled by husky dogs, by reindeer (in winter time). The town Kirovsk in the region is a popular place to vist with its Snow Village (made only of ice and snow) and many other interesting sights.
