From Tsaritzam to the Caspian and beyond
A travelogue describes a planned water connection linking the Volga at Tsaritzam with the Don at Kalatch, enabling a Europe to Asia voyage via canals and potentially reaching Lake Baikal. It notes Astrakhan as a cultural crossroads with sturgeon and Mongolian features, the flood’s power, and the city’s dependence on the Volga. The piece contrasts European and Asiatic influences as it traces the delta’s life and history.
