[:ja]オレグ・アルテミエフ宙飛行士がISSから撮影したサッカーワールドカップの会場、ロシアのエカテリングルクです。
エカテリンブルクは、ロシアの中央部、ウラル山脈中部の東側斜面に位置する、人口150万人のロシア第4の都市です。エカテリンブルクは、ロシア有数の産業家デミドフ家による投資によって工業都市として急速に成長し、18世紀にはロシア有数の金属工業の中心となりました。ロシア最初期の蒸気機関車が製造された街でもあり、ウラル連邦管区の本部が置かれ、高等教育機関、博物館、劇場なども多数あります。昨日のサッカーワールドカップでは、スウェーデンがメキシコを3-0で破る試合の会場となりました。

[Earthview Wonders] No.537: Yekaterinburg, Russia🇷🇺
Astronaut Oleg Artemyev captured from ISS Yekaterinburg, Russia, one of the match sites of soccer world cup.
Located on the Iset River east of the Ural Mountains, in the middle of the Eurasian continent, Yekaterinburg with 1.5 million population is the fourth-largest city in Russia. It is the main cultural and industrial center of the oblast. During 18th century, because of its rapid development, Yekaterinburg became a key city to Siberia, which had rich resources, and was known as the “window to Asia”, a reference to Saint Petersburg as a “window to Europe”. The city has been one of the venues of soccer world cup and is where Sweden and Mexico had an exciting match yesterday.
