Oymyakon, Russia
Oymyakon is located in the Republic of the Sakha of Russia. In 1933, Oymyakon, the village of Siberia was named as the "coldest housing location" of the planet Earth after the fall of -94 degrees Fahrenheit (-68 Celsius). Located at 63,4608 ° N, 142,7858 ° E Latitude, it is not too far from the Arctic circle, only several 100 miles.
Medium
This place has always remained away from other parts of Russia. The village is known as the "cold pole"aND This name goes with the village for its average temperature is -59 ° F. The photo collection that these photographers have brought us from the coldest village of the Earth clearly describe the extreme weather.
Dark days
In Oymyakon, winters stay long enough and darkness. This village remains dark until 21 hours a day! The question arises in mind what makes people survive in such thoughtful conditions? Obviously, the inhabitants of Oyyakon live a very different life from the rest of us when we talk about the weather.
Colder than ever
These photos show that residents have adjusted with the freezing temperature. Unfortunately, the temperature they have been used still had to go down while the last winters have turned out colder than ever. The cold was not the only thing that crossed the limit. Many other things have crossed a limit with time.
From the river
Oyyakon village has its name from a neighboring village, from the Oymyakon River. The word "Oyyakon" is derived from the same language - a discoloration language that is only spoken by the people of the ethnicity itself. The word Oyyakon stems from the word kheium means "water patch in an inflicted manner; a place where the fish spends the winter." While some say that it is derived from heyum, which means "frozen lake". The Oyyakon Regulation is less than 100 years old.
Watering hole for nomadic people
Oyyakon was not a village in the 1920s and 30, just a group of reindeer flags that belonged to the Yakut ethnic group used to visit the region. The region had some springs thermal sources that the shepherds used for their herds. These were the moments of the nomads, who have never stayed at the same place, but the Soviet government had a plan for the Oyyakon region.
The permanent settlement declaration
The Soviet government wanted its resident to settle instead of roaming all around. It was at that moment that they declared the Oyyakon region as a permanent settlement zone. Since then, Oyyakon has grown up, even in extremely cold conditions. A place that was all white has become at home to many Russians who were just looking for a place to settle.
Everything is simpler
Currently, the village has a population of 500 people. Life in Oyyakon is not only different but also difficult. People here have chosen to live a simple life. They work hard to keep themselves as well as their warm cattle.
How do they survive?
The people of the Oyyakon are used to living a rural life, they fish and breeding to make a living. You will find reindeer, yakut horses and cows like the main livestock of the region. The guards of these animals have a huge responsibility on their shoulders, that is to say to keep these live animals. The barns where cattle remained during the night are different from what you could have seen in other places. Meanwhile, fish sellers struggle with the cold.
Never have to refrigerate
The place is colder than our refrigerators! Now it makes sense if the people of Oymyakon does not have refrigerators. For the short time like the day, street vendors, put their stands to sell what they took. People are mostly visiting Oymyakon in winter to experiment time.
Surprised tourists
Most Times Tourists could not help but stay in shock for any time after seeing these standing sellers outdoors for hours and hours. After seeing the next image, you will not say it anymore. Because even tourists continued to do intensely foolish things in this place.
Addicted to adrenaline
This image has been clicked when a group of Chinese tourists has decided to play in the thermal springs around the village. The temperature was -76 ° F when this photo was clicked. We must say that this risky way of enjoying thermal springs. In addition, most visitors look like Amos Chapple, New Zealand photographer. It was surprising to feel the time and see how adapted residents.
Exceeding
Almost everything about this village is extremely unique. Over the decades, the villagers have done their best to get used to subarctic conditions. Sabrina Barr, the person who visited the village said: "Most people use dependent, because the inner plumbing tends to freeze."
Schoolchildren
Even children living in this region have incredible patience and dedication to their routine. While we feel lazy at a cold day to go to work, schools remain open until the temperature becomes beyond -61 ° F. They expect all children to be present until That situations aggravate which for us are already worse.
Everything is frozen
"I wore thin pants when I entered the outside - 47 ° C (-52 ° F). I remember feeling like the cold physically grabbing the legs. The other surprise was that, from time to time My saliva would gefmit needles that would pique my lips, "reminded Amos Chapple. To come, that's what frozen eyelashes look like.
Frozen eyelashes
Oyyakon recently received a nickname more when it became at home at the famous photo of frozen eyelashes. Anastasia Gruzdeva, a 24-year-old person published this picture on his Instagram account. Now you can imagine the levels we are talking about.
Group photo
She has also continued to download another photo with the rest of her friends. These girls certainly increase fashion levels. In a few days following the sharing of the photo, it has become popular as a new style of trend makeup. A statement of style has been given by Mother Nature.
Incredible beauty
And images like these are sufficient to shock one at the core. We would like to know what encourages people to show such heights of bravery. Oymyakon is entirely covered with snow. When we say cold, we hear cold enough that even thermometers burst.
Thermometer pause
The official weather station in Oymyakon announced once the temperature fell to -74 ° F! That's what they reported, but the electricometer installed in the village a year, later showed the temperature of -79 ° F! It was the last temperature that this thermometer showed ...
Stopped
The thermometer stopped just after showing the temperature at -79 ° F. even the thermometer could no longer take it. Well, it's not the lowest oyyakon's recorded temperature that the village has seen much colder days.
The lowest temperature never reported
In 1933, the temperature of the Oyyakon reached -89 ° F! So far, this has been the coldest registered temperature in the northern hemisphere. It was a few years before the Oyyakon becomes a permanent settlement. The cold of the village appeals to the world while the spirit of the villagers to continue to live is the breathtaking.
The days of snow are rare
Amos Chapple reached the village after completing a seven-hour flight and then traveled about 3,300 miles away. "After the first days, I was physically destroying just walking around the streets for a few hours," he recalled.
Polarized
The temperature of this village increases and goes up to 86 ° F from June to August. The duration of daylight increases at 21 hours each day in summer. Even in summer, it's not so easy to travel.
A horrible story to tell
You can only reach Oymyakon by the R504 Kolyma motorway away from the Russian Far East. This highway was built by forcing work. While the highway was still on the road for development, many works have lost their lives because of the weather. That's how it was named "bone road". In addition, the Oyyakon is always easy, but it's hard to leave.
Hard to run
In Oymyakon, if you leave your car outdoors, its engine will start again because of the cold. Suppose you had a nearby shop and you can not go back because your car is not ready to start. But here, people discover their own hack for that. They leave the engine so that the car continues to leave. Other times, they must park their car inside the heating garages
As they say
"Cars are kept in heated garages or, if left outside, left left all the time. Cultures do not grow in frozen soil, so people have a largely carnivorous diet meat, shaved frozen fish flesh and horse blood ice cylinder with Macaroni are some local specialties, "said one inhabitants.
A chapter in time
In order to combine their territories, the Russian and American forces built an aerodrome in Oyyakon during the Second World War. Due to the leasing policy, American aircraft were brought to the Oriental of Alaska on ferries. Fairbanks' third flying regiment drivers in Yakutsk used the aerodrome.
Just a shop
There is only one work store in the area during the winter season. The store is the only place where people can get everything they want. About 500 people in a village and everyone is in a store. The merchant must now know the history of each in the village.
How do dogs live?
Dog breeds that grow thick fur can survive in this village. This image is a dog that had a thick fur to stay warm in the cold. Puppies, however, need more care. They have short hair at the time of birth and are not caught in a warm place, their chances of surviving are minimal.
Coal heating plant
To give them a little relief, there is a coal heating plant that gives them warm cold weather. As long as people are happy to live there, it's okay. But the beauty and peace of this place that might not find anywhere else.
