The city is lined with a grid of straight and wide streets and avenues, decorated with emerald green parks, gardens, fountains imbued with crystal strands... This wonderful city is a real embodiment of the modern elegance that is inherent in many world capitals. At the same time it remains to be an oriental city. Tashkent has its own unique flavor. It combines medieval buildings as if descended from the pages of old oriental tales, elegant European architecture from the period of the Turkestan governor-generalship, standard concrete "boxes" of the Soviet era and, finally, glittering skyscrapers of glass and concrete (modern business centers and banks).

MAPIC 2011 - MOST ATTRACTIVE SUBMARKETS FOR NEW RETAIL DEVELOPMENT IN RUSSIA [09:15]
Over the last year, retail property market has been in the stage of active growth, but does this development follow the pre-crisis pattern? The administration in two capitals changes and attitude of the authorities toward retail property also undergoes change. Opportunities for new development in Moscow, the most interesting city for development, were hardly reduced. At the same time, both developers and retailers have development plans and financing for development, creating opportunities for development of other sub-markets. One such market is the Moscow region. It includes 80 towns, 16 of which are fairly large (more than 100 000 citizens), and a total population of seven million. A significant portion of these citizens work in Moscow and earn a high income. Proximity to Moscow is also an advantage for capital developers and national retailers. All these factors create a positive backdrop for the development of the region. Other interesting sub-markets with development potential are retail parks in big Russian cities and classic shopping centers in smaller towns with populations ranging from 300 000 to 500 000.

Palace at Pavlovsk. Grand Dining room.(Павловск. Парадная столовая.) [01:16]
The Dining Room, which is the largest of the ground-floor rooms, was designed by Cameron; the work of decoration started by him was finished by Brenna. The rhythmic pattern of white fluted pilasters with Corinthian capitals on a pale pistachio green background of the walls gives the hall a dignified air. The walls are surmounted by a moulded frieze with acanthus scrolls, classical vases, cupids, lions, etc. The large oval bay-leaf garland in the centre of the ceiling was intended as a frame for a panel which, however, was never painted. In reconstructing the hall, Voronikhin very tactfully added to Cameron's ceiling decoration a finely designed moulded border harmonizing with the frieze. The lush acanthus that Voronikhin was so fond of, agrees perfectly with Cameron's architectural idiom - an antique ornament in low relief on a delicately coloured background. The plate-glass French windows of the Dining Room open upon a broad granite stairway leading down to the park. This creates a sense of unity with nature, which is further sustained by landscape panels on the Dining Room walls, depicting park scenery with the waterfall on the Slavianka, the Ruin Cascade in Old Sylvia, the Temple to Friendship and the Peel Tower, painted by the Russian artist Andrey Martynov in 1800. Many objects in porcelain decorating the interiors record the early period of Pavlovsk, as for example articles made at the St Petersburg Imperial Porcelain Factory and painted after the drawings by Andrey ...
