About Izhevsk
Izhevsk is the capital city of western Russia's Udmurt Republic. It's known for the Kalashnikov Museum and Exhibition Complex of Small Arms, which displays weapons and documents the Russian arms trade. Close by, the interior of the gold-domed St. Michael's Cathedral is decorated with colorful frescoes of saints. Near the huge Izhevsk Pond, Udmurt Republic Zoo is home to arctic foxes, Amur leopards and polar bears.
