A walk along the embankment brings me, personally, pleasure. It's so wonderful to turn from Troitskiy, where the cars and trams are noisy, to the embankment. To walk without any harry hearing in the summer only wind and waives in the river and in winter - voices of playing children. The sky above Dvina and the river itself in autumn turn to be gray, leaden. Rays of light rarely pierce clouds and stick into river surface as lonely lover into his sweetheart lips.
Low sun brightens among trees covered with snow.
Dvina is cold and deserted. Walking along the embankment in winter you can only hear the crackle of the trees and crunch of the snow under your feet. Everything around is covered with snowdrifts. Skiers fiercely work with the sticks just not to freeze. Except Peter I statue, there are few more monuments on the embankment.
