The coronavirus pandemic prevented us from celebrating the 799th anniversary of the city&#039;s appearance properly, but the city administration still tried to give everyone a holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/3-4-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-522\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/3-4-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/3-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/3-4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/3-4-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/3-4-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There were several events, and one of the most striking was the parade of sailing yachts on Strelka, where the Oka and Volga connect. All parade participants took a responsible approach to the action, and during the day everyone was given the opportunity to practice for the evening show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2-6-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-521\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2-6-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2-6-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2-6-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2-6-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/2-6-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The show started at nightfall. All sailboats were able to sail in front of thousands of spectators, decorated with various illuminations. It looked incredibly beautiful and even majestic. The parade was crowned with a magnificent salute, which added a unique atmosphere to the celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-14-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-14-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-14-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-14-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-14-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-14-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It should be noted that the event had an exclusively indicative purpose, and not a competitive one. Spectators admired the parade and the subsequent fireworks with pleasure. By the way, the parade of sailboats was not the only one that day - during the day one could see balloons in the sky above the city.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nizhny Novgorod celebrated City Day last weekend - on August 15, a real parade of sailboats took place on this occasion.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":523,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[36,4],"class_list":["post-519","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-places","tag-parusnik","tag-yachts"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/519","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=519"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/519\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=519"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=519"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.flotilia.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=519"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
