 Greetings, friends, in the Market Friday challenge! The other day I felt the need to buy a new surge protector, so I went shopping at a specialty store. There are small electrical stores near my house, but they have a very small selection, and a surge protector may not be there at all, so I decided to go to a big department store. The closest department store to my house is near the Narva Triumphal Gate. I stopped at Narva Square to take some pictures. The Narva Gate was built in memory of the heroes of the Patriotic War of 1812. Here was the border of the city, through the gate passed the Russian troops returning from the battlefields. At first the gates were made of wood, but later they were replaced by a stone construction.  In the background, behind the gate, you can see a constructivist building, which houses the Palace of Arts. To the right, on the gable end of the house you can see a huge panel reminding of the Soviet period of history and speaking about the revolutionary events at the Narva gates. A little to the left of the gate is a small round pavilion, one of the city's first metro stations.  But I need to enter the building on the other side of the square, the Kirov Department Store. This building is also in the style of constructivism, as is the building of the Palace of Arts opposite. But commerce is much less conservative than art, and this building has been reconstructed many times to meet changing needs. The interior of this department store is not much different from the interiors of ordinary shopping malls.   The first thing I saw when I entered the department store was an unusual exposition on the first floor of the building, in the circular lobby. Zaporozhets cars could have attracted attention on their own, but it was these cars that were especially noticeable, they were painted in the most bizarre ways. This small exhibition was made to promote the motor festival that will be held in St. Petersburg in the summer of 2021.    The text on the poster reads: "ZAZ-966 and ZAZ-968 are legendary small cars of Zaporozhye automobile plant that were produced from 1966 till 1994. The car has a traditional rear-engine layout and went down in the history of the Soviet automobile industry as a people's car".  I was so caught up in looking at the cars that I didn't immediately remember the purpose of my visit to the department store.   I have to go up to the second floor to get to the store that sells digital and home appliances. From the escalator to the store I have to walk across the glass floor. The glass is frosted, so I can't see what's going on downstairs.   And here is the showcase I came here for. On the left there are the surge protectors of "Pilot" brand, the price of these filters varies from 1000 to 1750 rubles, which is $13,5 - $23,5. But a little to the right are similar devices, made at a local factory. Their price is about 2.5 times lower. One of these mains filters I choose.  That is the end of today's outing, I exit the department store and find myself on the square near the Narva Gate again. Thank you for keeping me company on this shopping trip!  ○|○ ---------- | ---------- Smartphone | Xiaomi Redmi 3 Location | Saint Petersburg, Russia This is my entry for the #marketfriday challenge by @dswigle.

The Naava Gate, Triumphal Arch commemorates the victories of Russian armies. I can only imagine the feeling of marching through that after defeating Napoleon! A victory, indeed! So much about it is stunning, the architecture speaks from a different place and time. I love that St. Petersburg blends the old and new so seamlessly, even leaving the not-so-popular pieces in for posterity and so that part of history remains a part of the bigger history. I am sad that our country is covering over the part of history that they don't like. We cannot change it, but, we can incorporate it into our world. I can remember those cars from Germany. There were many of them is East Germany! I am glad you got your surge protector and here in the States, even if it is made local, it is probably the same price! That doesn't seem fair! As always, I truly enjoy your well-written and always interesting posts for #MarketFriday! In these times when COVID has made it challenging to put together a post, or even search out different locations, I can say with an optimistic attitude that #MarketFriday has survived the pandemic, thanks to all of you. Without your dedication to stretch what we call a market has been done successfully. Thank you! All of you! In doing so, we have discovered that we have added new dimension to the tag. As many have been staying closer to home, I have also discovered more and more about each of you and that has been pretty nice. I have to admit, with the platform broken into different communities and tags, we get to see the same people, more or less that join every week, so we get to know each other a little bit. The challenge points out our differences, but, then, it also shows many things our cultures share. When the day is done, it shows off how human we all are and how we basically all care about our families and others. We embrace each other as humans. I love the experience of it all. I appreciate the love and support given to #MarketFriday! Thank you! Truly! Your participation adds a piece of your world, and I have to say, people are interested in is seeing it. This entire challenge has opened up the world to me and so many others. Thank you again for being a part of all this! I am so happy to see you here! I hope you have a fabulous day! Hive on!! Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how: How to Participate: Go to the market! Any market will do! Food, clothing, plant, or animal, if you wish. You can go to the zoo, an art auction, and restaurants. Anywhere or anything that you pay money for any kind of service. Take pictures! Be creative! It’s fun! Tell us a little bit about the market, what brought you here? Post the picture.(s) Don’t forget to use the MarketFriday Community #196308 to post from or hashtag it! #MarketFriday by @dswigle If you hashtag it, drop the link to your post here so I can easily find them. As always, please remember! #MarketFriday loves you! Upped and reposted<div class="pull-right"><a href="/@hive.engage"></a></div>

I'm glad we have a blend of the old and the new; we shouldn't destroy reminders of the part of history we don't like. For if we forget history, we will also forget the lessons we have learned from it. These cars were in mass production and were very popular, but they were not designed for long life, by the turn of the millennium they had almost disappeared from city streets and highways. I haven't seen a Zaporozhets car for a long time, but then enthusiasts started restoring old cars, and now we can see them at exhibitions:) Thank you so much!

I saw brand new ones in garages! Never driven, just collected. I called them throwaways with the short life, but, done purposely! The Trabant is another car that was abundant there, and made from 1957 to 1990 by former East German car manufacturer VEB Sachsenring Automobilwerke Zwickau. It is often seen as symbolic of former East Germany and the collapse of the Eastern Bloc in general.<div class="pull-right"><a href="/@hive.engage"></a></div>
