About Nizhniy Novgorod

Blagoveshensky Monastery. XIXth century

Fifteen years ago the entrance to Nizhniy Novgorod (then Gorkiy city ) was strictly off-limits to foreigners. This beautiful and ancient city also happened to house military manufacturing plants and scientific research centers, the sort of attractions normally not listed as must-see tourist attractions with the local Chamber of Commerce.

Minin and Pozharsky Square

Nizhniy Novgorod is an ancient city founded at the beginning of thirteenth century. The Second World War had not reached it (factories were only occasionally bombed by fascist planes), and the majority of churches, monasteries, and merchant houses remain intact. Initially, the entire city was located behind the walls of the Kremlin, an unassailable fortress made of red brick, constructed on a huge hill. Today, the Kremlin is still located on the same hill, and as grand as ever! Today there are more than one and a half million people living in Nizhniy Novgorod, there are more than ten institutes and universities, famous theatres, art galleries, museums, and succeeding enterprises such as the Nizhniy Novgorod Fair, well known throughout Russia. Due to its size and importance, it is often referred to as "the third capital of Russia".

Our Lady Joy of All Suffer Church

Nizhniy Novgorod is home to numerous tourist attractions including the two largest Russian rivers, the Volga and the Oka. (These two mighty rivers converge on the city and flow as one. The city is located on hills, overlooking the majestic rivers.) The historical downtown area is small, however it is possible to stroll about the streets for hours. There is no shortage of loving couples strolling along the Verhnevolzhskaya embankment. Most declarations of love are rumored to take place exactly here: the beauty of a huge river and shady avenues make for the perfect backdrop.

Merciful Savior Church

You will find some of the most beautiful women in the city walking along the popular "Big Pokrovskaya" street. This pedestrian street is about two kilometers long and considered the most popular place in Nizhniy. The most expensive shops, cafe, bars, and best restaurants (the majority feature Russian cuisine, but you will also find Mexican, Chinese and Georgian) are situated along both sides of the street. All the ancient buildings have been restored and painted bright colors - making it the most cheerful street of the city. Each evening you will find it filled with people enjoying the art exhibits, street performers, or just taking a casual stroll with that special someone. One of the most popular attractions of "Big Pokrovska" is the free "Fashion Show", arranged on a daily basis by beautiful single girls.

In short, each visitor will discover something special in Nizhniy Novgorod. Peaceful moon-light sails along the rivers, monasteries, churches, narrow ancient streets, wide prospects, cozy small restaurants, modern night clubs - there are choices to suit every taste. In fact, UNESCO recognized Nizhniy Novgorod as one of the top 100 cities representing a world cultural value.

Two Foreign Sweethearts

Maria is a beautiful woman of Colombia.

As you know, children can be one of life's greatest rewards.  Certainly, you shouldn't rule-out any prospective foreign bride just because she is childless, for together you could do something about that.  But neither should you exclude her just because she already has children, for together you could form an instant family!  That could benefit you in several ways.  Consider having two, or more, foreign sweethearts. 

An intercultural relationship may not be for everyone.  Yet, if you will invest the necessary time, effort and money into a relationship, and be reasonably flexible, tolerant and patient, your chances of finding happiness with a foreign bride are good.  Whichever path you choose, our wish for you is that your journey will be pleasant and that you will find, in life, everything that you seek.

International Introduction Service Q & A

Foreign Courtship Advice and Recommendations From the Editors of A Distant Light™

Q: To a prospective foreign bride who doesn't specify an age preference, how much of an age difference might customarily be acceptable? 

A: Surveys have shown that when considering age apart from other factors, 98 to 99 percent of single Ukrainian women and single Russian women seeking marriage would readily accept a partner as much as ten years their elder.  The rate of such ready acceptance among women of the former Soviet Union declines to 50 percent as age disparity increases to 15 years. 

In predominantly Buddhist cultures of the Far East, as for example in Thailand, elder persons are revered for their accumulated wisdom.  So, some of the single Asian women seeking marriage, in particular, might accept or even welcome somewhat greater age disparities. 

For an international introductions agency to promote so-called May–December romances might be good for business, in the short term, but would it be good for you?  For the prospective foreign bride?  Around here, we believe that what's best for business is the long-term success of your intercultural relationship.  So, rather than encourage a fifty-year-old man to pursue, say, Colombian single women in their twenties, or a man of forty to chase single Latin women still in their teens, we would respectfully suggest that you listen to your own voice of reason and common sense. 

If you don't fully recognize the value in this, you might find it helpful to read A Long Way to Go for a Date, by Henry Makow.  The outcome of Mr. Makow's real-life personal adventure may surprise you.  Find it listed under Foreign Bride Resources, below.)

Foreign Bride Resources

A foreign sweetheart is more likely to become the foreign bride of a gentleman who demonstrates an interest in, and some knowledge of, her native culture.  A Lonely Planet ® Travel Survival Kit™ (right sidebar) can be helpful.  Besides the practical advice for travelers, they provide some historical background and discuss relevant social, political and economic aspects of modern society.

The Woman of His Dreams

"Relationships are like Rome – difficult to start out, incredible during the prosperity of the 'Golden Age' and unbearable during the fall.  Then a new kingdom will come along and the whole process will repeat itself – until you come across a kingdom, like Egypt, that thrives and continues to flourish.  This kingdom will become your best friend, your soul mate and your love." 

— Helen Adams Keller

Astrud Gilberto's Finest Hour  (Verve)
Hear Astrud Gilberto's music now, at Amazon.com!

    This popular American singer and songwriter of German and Brazilian descent is admired by generations of music lovers everywhere.  Her name is practically synonymous with the bossa nova style of her native Brazil, and her endearing voice can be one of the most seductive on the planet. 
    Yet, there is more to be said of this remarkable woman, of which you may have been unaware.  She is also a talented graphic artist.  Through sales of the reproductions and prints of her original artworks (which can make unforgettable gifts, especially when signed by the artist herself), she supports efforts to protect animals from mistreatment. 
    Please see the charming (if, at times, necessarily intense) Web pages that have been created, with love, by this profoundly beautiful human being, 

–––––––—Ms. Astrud Gilberto—–––––––


[The Editors of A Distant Light™ are privileged to express our appreciation of Ms. Gilberto and her work.  Ms. Gilberto is not a participant in our service.]
