tourism video for Kazan, Russia saves the world ;-)

This tourism video for Kazan in the central European part of Russia is interesting in how grand it tries to be. The footage is indeed quite majestic, with sweeping vistas and aerial shots of both the landscapes and the local architecture. And it does make the area quite compelling. However, the voice over is rather over the top, acting as a bridge between geographic regions, cultures and religions; it almost claims to singlehandedly end wars with poetry! Nevertheless, despite the grandstanding, it does visually portray the region in a good light. Just be prepared to roll your eyes a little!
