What do foreigners imagine when they think

of Russia?

Made byDmitriy Il’in,

Balakovo, Russia

How we worked on this question

We explored periodicals

We watched some TV programs

We surfed in the Internet

We asked our foreign friends to interview people of their country

It was disappointing to get to know that…

most foreigners imagine Russia as an uncivilized country with very severe winters

a lot of them suppose that the Russians are very simple people

living in a big village

It was pleasant to learn that those who once visited Russia associate it with…

the gilded domes of the cathedrals

the hospitality of Russian people

the wonderful Russian winter

the beauty of ancient towns

Images of Russia

Unlikely imagesTrue imagesNo images

We have analysed the information and found out that…

a lot of foreigners think of Russia in stereotypes

there is no truth in most of these images

not many of foreign people have true images of our country

We came to the conclusion that…

foreign people do not know much

about our homeland, that’s why it

is a country of mystery for them
