#ARCTIC. #SIBERIA. THIS IS TAIMYR. To create a new Talnah attraction – a geopark – the district residents help the museum staff collect stones.
“We need a lot of them – the geological park’s design project provides for gabion benches. These are mesh structures with stones stacked inside. Simple and at the same time aesthetic, such architectural forms have rightfully earned landscape designers’ love. Norilsk residents have already appreciated the functionality of the gabion benches – they are installed along the stairs of the NA-Gora Museum”, they said at the Norilsk Museum.
In addition to gabions, the geopark will have ‘stone rivers’ and stone pits – these are like sandboxes, but with stones. Therefore, every field trip to the vicinity of Talnah, to the Harayelah river and to the mountains is always not only physical labor, but also a creative process: you want to find the most beautiful, the most textured samples.
At the same time, the builders continue to develop the geopark territory. Let us recall that the Norilsk Museum’s initiative to create a new attraction in Talnah got grant support from the Nornickel company’s charitable program World of New Opportunities. The geopark grand opening is scheduled for September.
Earlier, we wrote that giant exhibits were being brought to the site of the geopark.
