🚶 Rozhdestvenskaya Street

Рождественская ул.

A street in the former Lower Posad by the Volga: apartment buildings and banks of the early 20th century, housing most of the city's bars and restaurants.

The street grew out of the towpath — the barge haulers' trail along the Volga, known from chronicles since 1371.
It takes its name from the lost Church of the Nativity on the Bechev, known since 1520.
The Lower Posad by the quays at the mouth of the Pochaina is one of the first settled areas of the city, along with the kremlin.
In the 1920s the street was called Kooperativnaya, and from 1940 to 2001 Mayakovsky Street.
In the 1920s it was a center of cooperatives, and in the 1930s–1950s of garment factories and tailoring workshops.
