The fruit and vegetables in Russia are basically import. People here rarelycultivate.
Russians enjoy their life a lot. Every Friday afternoon, they always go to the vacation for weekend. The life is leisure. They spent lots of time with family, which I think we need to learn about.
Although Russia is a vast territory with a sparse population, Moscow, as the center of Policy and ecnomic, can still always catch the traffic jam. The guide told us there is one to ten traffic jam. Two words for us: wait andendure.
It is illegal to buy cigrate as a gift to Russia. The cigrate in supermarketcan not put in the obvious place. And if someone wish to smoke, he need to be two meter near the waste bin.

Now that we come to Moscow, how can we not go to Kremlin and Red Square.
It is not very cold in April in Russia.The tree also sprout. Only the wind is blowing. You need to wear a long gown or a wind coat.
On 25th, after we move-in and have lunch, we went to Kremlin. There is tall and firm wall and bell house, church with golden top, pavilion and palace with histories in Kremlin. Kremlin erect Borovitzky hill near Moscow River. Which shows us a wonderful and magnificent architectural complex.

Magnificent structure together with the sky, what a beautiful view! We took a lot of pictures. And guide also tell us that Putin go to walk by air. It is a pity that we do not see him. Because he is visit in other country.

The exhibitors around the world also join in the Show, the buyers gathered here.
The sqare of EcwaTech has been reduce one third, but the old clients said that the visitors are better. Although the economic in Russia is not very good, people’s purchasubg power get higher, Ruble’s devaluation increase the person to buy real object. This show mainly focus on industrial pump, valves, strapping table, sewage treatment and environment treatment. Domestic use of water is not very suitable for this Show.Although local people do have the interest for water treatment product, we still doubt their purchasing power. Hope the clients who wish to join in the Show next year will have some idea.
There is always lots of visitors in the second day of the exhibition. The clients earned a lot. The quality of visitors is high, so does the professinal level.
Russia’s economic is not good as before, but there is still many opportunity in this country, especially in industrial water-pulluter.
